2.  Forming the future perfect tense in Latin is just as easy as the pluperfect! Just follow these very familiar steps : 1. Find the perfect stem. The perfect stem is found by looking at the third principal part of the verb and removing the –i. ▪ Example: amo, amare, amavi, amatus perfect stem=amav-

3.  Add the letters “eri” to the perfect stem.  Example: amaveri-

4.  Add the personal endings. (Use –o for 1 st person, singular.) -0, -s, -t, -mus, -tis, -nt

5. Amo, amare, amavi, amatus SingularPlural 1 st personamaveroamaverimus 2 nd personamaverisamaveritis 3 rd personamaveritamaverint

6.  Duco, ducere, duxi, ductus SingularPlural 1 st personduxeroduxerimus 2 nd personduxerisduxeritis 3 rd personduxeritduxerint

7.  Always translate the future perfect with the words, “will have.”  Examples:  amo, amare, amavi, amatus ▪ amavero= I will have loved  moneo, monere, monui, monitus ▪ monuerit= he will have warned  capio, capere, cepi, captus ▪ ceperimus= we will have captured

8.  Although sum and possum are irregular verbs, the future perfect is still formed just as any other regular verb would be.
