In like manner are conjugated the compounds of fero; as, affèro, attuli, allatum; aufĕro, abftuli, ablatum; diffĕro, diftuli, dilatum; confèro, contuli, collatum: infero, intuli, illatum; offĕro, obtuli, oblatum; effĕro, extuli, elatum. So circum-, per-, tranf-, de-, pro-, ante-, pra-fero. In fome writers we find adfero, adtuli, adlatum; conlatum, inlatum, obfero, &c. for affero, &c. Obf. 1. Most part of the above verbs are made irregular by contraction. Thus, nolo is contracted for non volo; malo, for magis volo; fero, fers, fert, &c. for feris, ferit, &c. Feror, ferris, V. ferre, fertur ; for fereris, c. Obf 2. The imperatives of dico, duco, and făcio are contracted in the fame manner with fer: thus we fay, dic, duc, fac, instead of dice, duce, face. But thefe often occur likewife in the regular form. Fio, factus, fieri, To be made or done, to become Pr. Fio, fis, Indicative Mode. fit: fimus, fitis, fiunt. Im. Fiebam, fiebas, fiebat; fiebamus, fiebatis, fiebant. Per Factus fum, &c. factus fui, &c. Plu Factus eram, &c. factus fueram, &c. Fut. Fiam, Pr. Fiam, fies, fiet; fiemus, fietis, fient. Subjunctive Mode. fias, fiat; fiamus, fiatis, fiant. Im. Fiěrem, fieres, fieret; fieremus, fieretis, fierent. Per. Factus fim, &c. factus fuerim, &c. Plu. Factus effem, &c. factus fuiffem, &c. The compounds of facio, which retain a, have also fio in the pasfive, and fac in the imperative active; as, calefacio, to warm, calefio, calefac; but those which change a into i, form the passive regularly, and have fice in the imperative; as, conficio, confice; conficior, confectus, confici. We find, however, confit, it is done, and confieri; defit, it is wanting; infit, he begins. To Irregular verbs may properly be fubjoined what are commonly called NEUTER-PASSIVE Verbs, which, like fio, form the preterite tenfes according to the paffive voice, and the rest in the active. There are, soleo, folitus, folere, to ufe; audeo, aufus, audere, to dare; gaudeo, gavifus, gaudere, to rejoice; fido, fifus, fidere, to trust: So confido, to truft; and diffido, to diftruft; which also have confidi & diffidi. Some add marco, mæftus, mærere, to be fad; but maftus is generally reckoned an adjective. We likewife fay juratus fum and cœnatus fum, for juravi and canavi, but these may also be taken in a passive fenfe. To these may be referred verbs, wholly active in their terminaation, and passive in their fignification; as, vapŭlo, -avi, -atum, to be beaten or whipped; veneo, to be fold; exŭlo, to be banished, &c. DEFECTIVE VERBS. Verbs are called Defective, which are not used in certain tenfes, numbers, and perfons. These three, odi, cœpi, and memini, are only used in the preterite tenfes; and therefore are called Preteritive Verbs; though they have fometimes likewife a prefent fignification: thus, Odi, I hate, or have hated, oderam, oderim, odiffem, odero, odiffe. Participles, ofus, ofurus: exofus, perofus. Capi, I begin or have begun, caperam, -erim, -issem, -ero, -iffe. Supine capta. Participles captus, capturus. Memini, I remember, or have remembered, memineram, -erim, -issem, -ero, isse: Imperative, memento, mementote. Instead of odi, we fometimes fay ofus fum; and always exofus, perfus fum, and not exodi, perodi. We fay opus capit fieri, or captum eft. K To these fome add nōvi, because it frequently hath the signification of the prefent, I know, as well as, I have known, though it comes from nofco, which is complete. Furo, to be mad, dor, to be given, and for, to fpeak, as alfo der and fer, are not used in the first perfon fingular; thus, we fay, daris, datur; but never dor. 1 Of verbs which want many of their chief parts, the following moft frequently occur: Aio, I fay, inquam, I say, forem, I fhould be; aufim, contracted for aufus fim, I dare ; faxim, I'll fee to it, or 1 will do it; ave and falve, fave you, hail, good morrow; cedo, tell thou, or give me ; quefo, I pray. Inf. Fore, to be hereafter, or to be about to be, the fame with effe futurus. Sub. Pr. Aufim, aufis, aufit: faxit: faxit: faxint. faxitis, faxint. Note. Faxim and faxo are used instead of fecerim and fecero. Imper. Ave vel avēto; plur. avēto vel avetote. Indic. Fut. Salve v. falveto; falvete v. falvetote. Imperat. fecond perf. fing. Cedo, plur. cedite. Indic. Pref. firft perf. fing. Quæfo, plur. quæsumus. Inf. avere. falvere. Most of the other Defective verbs are but fingle words, and rare, ly to be found, but among the poets; as, infit, he begins; defit, it is wanting. Some are compounded of a verb and the conjunction fi; as, fis, for, fi vis; fultis, for fi vultis ; fodes, for fi audes; capfis, for cape fi vis. IMPERSONAL VERBS. A verb is called Imperfonal, which has only the terminations of the third perfon fingular, but does not admit any perfon or nominative before it. Imperfonal verbs in English, have before them the neuter pronoun it, which is not confidered as a person; thus, delectat, it delights; decet, it becomes; contingit, it happens; evenit, it happens : If Conj. Ind. Pr. Delectat, Plu. Delectaverat, Decuerat, Continget. Eveniet. Contingat, Eveniat, Deceret, Contingeret, Eveniret, Per. Delectaverit, Decuerit, Plu. Delectaviffet, Decuiffet, Moft Latin verbs may be ufed imperfonally in the paf five voice, especially Neuter and Intranfitive verbs, which otherwife have no paffive; as, pugnatur, favetur, curritur, venitur; from pugno, to fight; faveo, to favour; curro, to run; venio, to come: Obf. 1. Impersonal verbs are scarcely used in the imperative, but inftead of it we take the fubjunctive; as, delectet, let it delight, &c.; nor in the fupines, participles, or gerunds, except a few; as, panĭtens, -dum, dus, &c. Induci ad pudendum et pigendum, Cic. In the preterite tenfes of the paffive voice, the participle perfect is always put in the neuter gender. |
