THis is the best tutorial ever that I found when learning latin . Ihad problems with understanding the term 'conjugation' but realised that the same principle applies to Spanish and French, of which Ihave already studies for 3-4 years.
Thank you for all of your videos. I have only watched a couple, and I understand so much more than when I started. You explain it in ways that make it clear! I appreciate you for taking the time to make these videos! This one, in particular, is the most timely as we are going through this very part of conjugations in class. I look forward to watching all of your helpful videos!
Thank you for all of your videos! I am taking a deep Latin course (doing my English Philology grade :( ) and the professor doesn't really care to explain things, all we do is translating. So your videos helped me a lot!!!
You deserve WAAAAY more than 102K subscribers!! Simplest tutorial I have ever seen! I just learned something that might have taken an actual student 3 class periods!
Your videos are so good! I went into a new school knowing no Latin, while my classmates have been studying for 2 years already. Within one trimester, my teacher said I was already 4 Grades ahead of everyone. I used all your videos! Amazing. I subbed immediately.
Standard classical pronunciation (i.e., that which was during the Golden and Silver Age of Latin literature, ~100 BC - AD 100) has v's like w's, and we have pretty good evidence for this in transcriptions of Latin into other languages like Greek, where Vergilius was written Ουεργιλιος (Ouergilios, and the Ou is definitely a "w" and not a "v"). It's not that your Latin teacher is wrong, he's just pronouncing it in a definitely non-classical way. More medieval and church-like. I'm a classicist.
This is really interesting! In Portuguese (a romance language) the verbs are really close to the ones on latin, we have three endings for the verbs. -ar -ir -er And verbs and the way you conjugate them is really similar! Like the verb "Amar" (to love)
Thank you so much! Your explanation was so well-done and thanks to you I got a full mark on my (Present Tense Verb Conjugation 1-2) homework! Thank you thank you!!
+ Anne Stabile traho means to drag (or draw in the sense of dragging). The English word tractor comes from traho. I like using wiktionary.org for quick online vocabulary searches.
+latintutorial I'm very happy for the independent verification that Wiktionary is the greatest thing ever for comprehensive Latin vocabulary and complete conjugations/declensions! :)
Did you know that it's also related to 'drawing' in both senses of the term - dragging a brush across a page, and dragging water out of a bottle. !! I luv wiktionary too it's the best for etymology as well!!
I love this video. I made one small rearrangement to the final slide when using it for my notes (as the final slide slightly contradicts the order - preferable in my opinion - actually used earlier in the video). Here is how I think your process is better summarized: 1. Write down the 1st principal part for the first person singular (see 2:16) 2. Identify the present stem a. Take 2nd principal part b. subtract “-re” 3. Write down the stem for all other grammatical persons (subjects) 4. Add the personal ending, noting that: a. 3rd conjugation stem varies (-i-) b. 3rd person plural in 3rd and 4th conjugations end -unt.
You're the absolute best. I've been falling behind in Latin class, after watching a few of your videos I am back on track, without even using that much effort. Your videos are easy to understand and you even have a great sense of humor that keeps my attention. Well done! Do you have a Patreon by any chance?
Not exactly. Conjugations are for verbs (where the ending changes based on the subject, tense, and other things), while declensions are for nouns and adjectives (where the ending changes based on how the word is used in a sentence). Same idea (changing of endings to reflect changing grammar) but for different parts of speech.
The videos are great and super helpful but sometimes the narrator stresses the wrong syllables (maybe they use the Medieval rules of pronunciation) so if anyone's confused by the last syllable being stressed it's actually wrong because we never stress this syllable in Latin.
There is also one paradigm missing. The verbs of third conjugation ending in short u as tribuo, minuo. The conjugation is done by thematic vowel attached between the stem and the personal ending. e.g. tribu-i-s, tribu-u-nt. The "u" stem is actually a consonant v since the "u" vowel is semivocal, alternating its quality depending on its location. In "tribuunt" it behaves as a consonant "tribv-u-nt", so the thematic "u" vowel must move in to adjust articulation. The same goes with other finite forms (tribu-i-s, tribu-i-mus) with thematic "i" vowel.
Eh, not really. You could get away with that with 3rd conjugation verbs, but the present stem for 4ths is really the 2nd pp minus just the -re (so audi- from audire).
You was originally the yall. Thou was the singular. But using plural form was considered polite, so the singular became archaic. It's actually a similar situation for why Spanish uses vostores and nosotros instead of just vos and nos for plural. Although nosotros and vostores are becoming archaic
I’m using Wheelock’s Latin as a means to study the language & it uses accent symbols to determine which vowels are emphasized between the different conjugations which also behave independently from long vowels. H/e, the pronunciations feel a bit unnatural compared to how I feel I’d say them without the accent guides. For example, do you find these conjugations of _Laudāre_ to be consistent with the currently accepted norms of the pronunciation of the form in Latin as it’s taught today?: Laúdō Laúdās Laúdat Laudámus Laudátis Laúdant (Due to software limitations, I can’t put both the accent & long vowel symbol above the “á” in “Laudámus” and “Laudátis” above the same letter so please just assume they’re both in them lol “‘“‘“‘)
I really appreciate this tutorial, please comment on the use of "would have"re an act which is 'done' is spoken as e.g. I would have read text Instead of I read the text.
This is July 2020; are you teaching presently, although it might be elsewhere? Your teaching skills/ content surpasses my Cambridge Latin course Part 1. Cheers from Australia
So I'm curious, I'm attempting to start with Wheelocks, and I don't recall right now, but for the third person singular, does a normally long vowel become a short vowel? So, does amās for second person singular become amat in the third person singular?
Present tense: 1st conjugation: 1. Amō, Amāre: Amō - I love (1st person, S) Amās - You love (2nd person, S) Amat - He/she/ it loves (3rd person, S) Amāmus - we love (1st person, P) Amātis - you all love (2nd person, P) Amant - they love (3rd person, P)
I'm struggling at learning the verbs and am trying to remember the paradigms, based on how your videos are set up do you recommend splitting them up by the tenses as opposed to the conjugations or mood
My suggestion is to practice conjugating 1st conjugation verbs in the present. Then practice conjugating those 1st conjugation verbs in the imperfect tense and future tense. Once you get that down, learn how to conjugate those 1st conjugation verbs in the present system (the present system has the tenses - present, imperfect, and future) in the passive mood. Then learn to conjugate those 1st conjugation verbs in the perfect system active tense - perfect, pluperfect and future perfect tenses. Once you have gotten the hang of this, learn how to conjugate those 1st conjugation verbs in the passive tense for the perfect system. When you are comfortable doing all these things, you can easily apply these concepts to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th conjugation verbs. It is imperative that you memorize the 4 principal parts of all verbs you learn (some verbs do not have the 4th part) so you know what conjugation the verb you want to use belongs to. This is also important when it comes to irregular verbs.
What tense would phrases with the helping verb(s) have+been/had+been, like "I have loved" "I have been loving", "I had been loving" go under? Would any of those go under the subjunctive? Would phrases like "I had been loving" still go under the pluperfect, even though there is the addition of a helping verb?
Slow down. First of all, "subjunctive" isn't a tense, it's a mood dealing with hypothetical, desired, or contrary-to-fact situations, and it has its own set of tenses, some of which may or may not correspond to your examples, depending on context. Second, Latin doesn't have progressive tenses the way English and the Romance languages do, so your examples would probably be translated by either Present or the Perfect for "I have been loving" and either the Imperfect or the Pluperfect for "I had been loving." Again, the context would tell you whether you mean "I loved," "I have loved," I have been loving," for the Present/Perfect and "I loved, "I used to love," or"I had loved" or "I had been loving" for the Imperfect. In any event, "I have been loving" and "I had been loving" would not be likely translations, as English just doesn't use "to love" in the progressive tenses as a simple statement. You wouldn't say, for example, "I am loving my girlfriend," "I was loving my girlfriend," "I have been loving my girlfriend, or "I had been loving my girlfriend.". You would simply say, "I love my girlfriend," "I loved (or used to love) my girlfriend," "I have loved my girlfriend," or "I had loved my girlfriend."
I'm sorry, but you're giving information that is not correct. You give a wrong rule to obtain the present stem of a verb: at 5:05 you say that taking away the final -re from the infinitive gives you the present stem. Well, no. Wrong rule, wrong results. For example, take the verb agō, agis, agere, ēgī, āctum; according to your rule the present stem would be age-, which is wrong, the present stem is ag-. Other examples: capio, capis, capere, cepi, captum, whose present stem is capi-, not cap-; facio, facis, facere, feci, factum, present stem faci-, not fac-, and the list could go on and on. To obtain the present stem you don't contemplate the infinitive at all, and the rule is a bit more complicated than what you suggest; but probably no one will read this comment so I'll leave it there.
Is there a difference in the 'a' sound of the endings between amās, amāmus, amātis and amat and amant? It wasn't obvious from the video. Similarly with audīs, audīmus, audītis and audit?
Yes, it should be lengthened when there’s a long mark, and the long i sounds more like “ee”, while the short I is like an “ih”. Sorry if it’s not clear. My more recent videos are much better with clear pronunciation!
@@latintutorial Many thanks: your diction is normally flawless and I have to say emulating yours my own has improved immeasurably! Audivi vocem de caelo...
Something I still don’t understand: I’ve noticed the macron on the ‘a’ in amās is only in certain forms amō. amāmus amās. amātis amat amant It forms a little L shape a. ā ā. ā a. a Is there a reason for this. Why is the ‘a’ long on the 2nd person singular and plural and the 1st person plural, but never on the 3rd person. Is it the letter after it that makes the difference? (I’ll use the -m ending as an example for the 1st person singular.) am. āmus ās. ātis at. ant Can somebody please explain this to me?
Almost every vowel before the consonant "s" stays long or, if it's naturally short, though not in this example, it changes its quantity before the consonant "s". Final dental "t" and final "nt" group shorten the vowel if it is positioned before them as in "amat" and "amant". Remember that. In "amatis" the stem vowel is in its natural longevity before dental "t" since there is another syllable coming, thus providing the stem vowel with long pronounciation. Long vowels lose their strength on the ultime.
third -io is a bit of a hybrid between 3rd and 4th conjugation. You could really think of it as a 4th conjugation verb...the only problem is that is has an "-ere" infinite which is why it is considered 3rd conjugation. Take the word "facio, facere, feci, factum" it is 3rd conjugation based on its infinitive, however if you conjugate it out, it looks a lot like 4th conjugation. compare it to "venio, venire" which is 4th conjugation. facio facimus venio venimus facis facitis venis venitis facit faciunt venit veniunt hope that helps.
The hyphen is called a macron (ā ē ī ō ū), it’s used to indicate long vowels, that means the vowels has to be pronounce twice as long. Hope that helps :)
i've been pronouncing all v's like v's and u's like u's and so has my high school latin teacher. it still really annoys me how he says them with a "wuh"
I did not do this to learn my native language. Why do I have to do this to learn another? I mean, I naturally learned the different conjugations. I did not have to create a table and classify them.
As we get older, we lose the ability to pick up languages naturally through trial and error, in some small part because we speak less, or are less willing to try things out and have a patient parent calmly correct things and model our simple speech. And, the ideas we wish to convey when we are older are often far more complex than what we are comfortable with by learning naturally. And while immersion is always the best way to learn a language, that often can’t happen because we have jobs or a family to take care of, or the language isn’t spoken much anymore. And plus, we might be more interested in how language works by seeing it presented in a table like this. The point being, there is some benefit to classifying language forms for those who are older and can work with them as they (hopefully) work with the language enough to not have to worry about the grammar.

Would phrases like "I had been loving" still go under the pluperfect, even though there is the addition of a helping verb?
Slow down. First of all, "subjunctive" isn't a tense, it's a mood dealing with hypothetical, desired, or contrary-to-fact situations, and it has its own set of tenses, some of which may or may not correspond to your examples, depending on context.

You would simply say, "I love my girlfriend," "I loved (or used to love) my girlfriend," "I have loved my girlfriend," or "I had loved my girlfriend."

How can I know what's the strongest syllable? I mean, for example, you said, AUdio, AUdis, auDIT, auDImus, auDItis, audiUNT. Is there a pattern?
I'm sorry, but you're giving information that is not correct. You give a wrong rule to obtain the present stem of a verb: at 5:05 you say that taking away the final -re from the infinitive gives you the present stem. Well, no. Wrong rule, wrong results. For example, take the verb agō, agis, agere, ēgī, āctum; according to your rule the present stem would be age-, which is wrong, the present stem is ag-.

To obtain the present stem you don't contemplate the infinitive at all, and the rule is a bit more complicated than what you suggest; but probably no one will read this comment so I'll leave it there.

3rd IO verbs?

I think that he meant that you didn't roll the 'r' when you conjugated the word 'traho'.
Something I still don’t understand: I’ve noticed the macron on the ‘a’ in amās is only in certain forms
amō. amāmus
amās. amātis
amat amant
It forms a little L shape
a. ā
ā. ā
a. a
Is there a reason for this. Why is the ‘a’ long on the 2nd person singular and plural and the 1st person plural, but never on the 3rd person. Is it the letter after it that makes the difference?
(I’ll use the -m ending as an example for the 1st person singular.)
am. āmus
ās. ātis
at. ant
Can somebody please explain this to me?
Almost every vowel before the consonant "s" stays long or, if it's naturally short, though not in this example, it changes its quantity before the consonant "s". Final dental "t" and final "nt" group shorten the vowel if it is positioned before them as in "amat" and "amant". Remember that. In "amatis" the stem vowel is in its natural longevity before dental "t" since there is another syllable coming, thus providing the stem vowel with long pronounciation. Long vowels lose their strength on the ultime.
I've heard about the third -io. Could someone explain to me about this?
third -io is a bit of a hybrid between 3rd and 4th conjugation. You could really think of it as a 4th conjugation verb...the only problem is that is has an "-ere" infinite which is why it is considered 3rd conjugation. Take the word "facio, facere, feci, factum" it is 3rd conjugation based on its infinitive, however if you conjugate it out, it looks a lot like 4th conjugation. compare it to "venio, venire" which is 4th conjugation.
facio facimus venio venimus
facis facitis venis venitis
facit faciunt venit veniunt
hope that helps.
Also, the last paradigm, the third in -uo. e.g. minuo, minuis, minuit, minuimus, minuitis, minuunt. The infinitive is minuere.
having questions, if that alphabet is still pronounced as "i", why is it an on-top-hyphen alphabet
The hyphen is called a macron (ā ē ī ō ū), it’s used to indicate long vowels, that means the vowels has to be pronounce twice as long. Hope that helps :)
Yay
cool!

is that seriously all your going to say
The accent of the verbs should be on the first syllable except 1st and 2nd person plural.
What do you mean by a short "e" for the third conjugation
What is the meaning of traho, trahere? First Google said to draw, then other meanings. I don't have a textbook.
It means "to drag"
@latintutorial I understand, just thought it would be a good note to add.
@latintutorial btw, great job on the videos!

"thats what I meant", he said in a tone that obviously means he was just stumped and proved stupid.
I like it figet spinner's
there was no u in classical Latin, so a v made the "u" sound
UR NOT FMILY FRINDLI
Latin is backwards Phoenicians.
i've been pronouncing all v's like v's and u's like u's and so has my high school latin teacher. it still really annoys me how he says them with a "wuh"
I did not do this to learn my native language. Why do I have to do this to learn another? I mean, I naturally learned the different conjugations. I did not have to create a table and classify them.
As we get older, we lose the ability to pick up languages naturally through trial and error, in some small part because we speak less, or are less willing to try things out and have a patient parent calmly correct things and model our simple speech. And, the ideas we wish to convey when we are older are often far more complex than what we are comfortable with by learning naturally. And while immersion is always the best way to learn a language, that often can’t happen because we have jobs or a family to take care of, or the language isn’t spoken much anymore. And plus, we might be more interested in how language works by seeing it presented in a table like this. The point being, there is some benefit to classifying language forms for those who are older and can work with them as they (hopefully) work with the language enough to not have to worry about the grammar.
