*Attachment of the suffix directly to the stem, e.g. ''mendiç'' → '''''menduī'''''; 'saepiç'' → '''''saepuī'''''
:*Attachment of the suffix directly to the stem.
:::'''''mendiç''''' ("they are healing me") → '''''menduī''''' ("they healed me")
:::'''''saepiç''''' ("they are cutting me") → '''''saepuī''''' ("they cut me")
:*Attachment of the suffix after base thematic vowel.
:::'''''helior''''' ("I am bright") → '''''helīvō''''' ("I was bright")
:::'''''augeç''''' ("they are looking at me") → '''''augēvī''''' ("they looked at me")
:*No suffix; perfective endings attached directly to the stem, with root vowel lengthening.
:::'''''iuvaç''''' ("they are writing me") → '''''iūvī''''' ("they wrote me")
:::'''''feriç''''' ("they are carrying me") → '''''fērī''''' ("they carried me")
