In regular verbs, the perfect stem can be derived from the present stem in predictable ways: | |||
*'''1st conjugation:''' ''-āv-'' | |||
*'''2nd conjugation:''' ''-uv-'' (with hard stem-final consonant) | |||
*'''3rd conjugation:''' ''-uv-'' (with hard stem-final consonant) | |||
*'''4th conjugation:''' ''-īv-'' | |||
The majority of 1st and 4th conjugation verbs are regular, while 2nd and 3rd conjugation verbs (particularly 3rd conjugation) have a higher tendency to have irregular perfect stems. | |||
Irregular perfect stems formations include: | |||
*''-ēvi-'' (for 2nd conjugation verbs). | |||
*Adding ''-s-'' after the stem-final consonant (which may cause assimilation). | |||
*Reduplication. | |||
*Vowel lengthening with or without vowel change. | |||
*Dropping nasal infix from present stem. | |||
*No change from present stem. | |||
