1. 2nd Conjugation Verbs!
Lesson 10 (A)

2. Very regular and predictable parts:
Did you notice that the verbs in this week’s vocab list look different from the ones you’ve had before?
Old verbs: amo, amare, amavi, amatus
Very regular and predictable parts:
-o, -are, -avi, -atus
1st conjugation verbs

3. augeo, augēre, auxi, auctus video, vidēre, vidi, visus
But these NEW verbs look kind of weird.
They ALL have –eo, -ēre for the first 2 parts. But the 3rd and 4th parts don’t seem to follow a pattern:
augeo, augēre, auxi, auctus
video, vidēre, vidi, visus
habeo, habēre, habui, habitus

4. 2nd conjugation verbs augeo, augēre, auxi, auctus
Verbs that have –eo, -ēre are called:
2nd conjugation verbs
augeo, augēre, auxi, auctus
video, vidēre, vidi, visus

These verbs work the same way as your old 1st conjugation verbs.
They’ll just have an –e– instead of an –a– before their ending.
