DEPONENT VERBS (Continued)

DEPONENT VERBS OF THE THIRD CONJUGATION IN -IOR

483. Deponent verbs of the third conjugation ending in -ior are conjugated as follows:

ēgredior, ēgredi, ēgressus sum, go out

484. The past participle of a deponent verb is usually active in meaning, like its other forms. Thus, cōnātus, having tried, secutus, having followed, egressus, having gone out. Deponents have a present active participle, like other verbs: cōnāns, verēns, sequens, ēgrediēns. The participles of cōnor, with their meanings, are as follows:

a. The word after, when a preposition, is in Latin post; when a conjunction, it is postquam. The difference between the two uses is illustrated by the following sentences. After the storm, the road was impassable, and After the storm was over, the road was impassable. In the first of these sentences after is a preposition; in the second it is a conjunction.

INFINITIVES

THE INFINITIVES OF THE FOUR CONJUGATIONS

488. The Latin infinitive has three tenses, the present, the past, and the future. The infinitives of the four conjugations are formed as follows:

FORMATION OF THE INFINITIVES

489. 1. In the first, second, and fourth conjugations the present passive infinitive is formed by changing the final -e of the present active infinitive to -I (section 344). In the third conjugation, both of -ō verbs and -io verbs, the termination -ere of the active is replaced by -i in the passive. 2. The past active infinitive is formed by adding the termination -isse to the perfect stem.

3. The past passive infinitive consists of the past passive participle and esse. The future active infinitive consists of the future active participle and esse.

4. The form used with īrī to make the future passive infinitive always ends in -um. It is not a participle.1 The future passive infinitive is not much used.

THE INFINITIVES OF DEPONENT VERBS

490. The present and past infinitives of deponents are passive in form, the future is active. All are active in meaning. The infinitives of the four model deponents are as follows:

491. 1. Occupārī; occupavisse; occupatus esse. 2. Mūnitūrus esse; mūnītus esse; mūnīrī. 3. Pōnī; posuisse; positūrus esse. 4. Jēcisse; defendisse; repperisse. 5. Dūcī; dici; terrēri. 6. Mitti; misisse; missus esse. 7. Vāstārī; timērī; peti; interfici; audiri. 8. Ductūrus esse; ductum īrī; ductus esse. 9. Vincere; victūrus esse; vinci; victus esse.
