====='''Irregular verbs'''===== | |||
* Verbs that have an irregular imperfect stem use that stem in the imperfect indicative and subjunctive instead of the expected ''-ed-/-od-'' suffix. The endings added to the past stem remain the same (i.e. ''-a, -es,...'' in the indicative and ''-o, -es,...'' in the subjunctive). | |||
* Verbs that have an irregular imperfect stem may form their past participle in one of two ways depending on how the imperfect stem is derived: | |||
** If the imperfect is derived from the present stem via a dental suffix (''-t-, ''-d-'', or ''-s-''): The past participle is identical to the imperfect stem. | |||
** If the imperfect is derived from the present stem via a vowel change or otherwise formed without a dental suffix: The past participle is formed from the present stem with the suffix ''-en-''. | |||
** A few verbs may not follow the above pattern. | |||
* Some verbs have an irregular future stem (i.e. a stem other than the infinitive), usually derived by contraction. In this case, the endings normally added to the infinitive in the future and conditional tenses are instead added to the irregular stem. | |||
