Latin has six basic tenses divided into two systems, which reflect how the verb forms are constructed.
Taking the first-conjugation verb amo, amare, amavi, amatus ("love") as an example, the Present system tenses are built on the present stem, ama-. They are:
The Perfect System tenses are built on the perfect stem, amav-. They are:
These are the tenses of the indicative mood. The subjunctive mood has only four: the present, imperfect, perfect and pluperfect. The imperative has two: present and future (though not all scholars agree that these are tenses).
The present tense is used for actions that are currently happening and can be translated in three ways: simple (I love), continuous (I am loving), and emphatic (I do love). The future tense is for actions that have yet to happen (I will love), and the imperfect tense is used for actions that occurred regularly or have not been completed (I used to love or I was loving).
The present active indicative endings are: -o, -s, -t, -mus, -tis, -nt.
The future active indicative endings are: -bo, -bis, -bit, -bimus, -bitis, -bunt (for 1st and 2nd conjugation verbs) and -am, -es, -et, -emus, -etis, -ent.
The imperfect active indicative endings are: -bam, -bas, -bat, -bamus, -batis, -bant.
Four (five, if you count third -io).
Perfect, pluperfect, future perfect.
There are six main tenses in Latin: present, imperfect, future, perfect, pluperfect, and future perfect. Each tense expresses a different time relationship between the action of the verb and the time being referred to.
The Latin verbs for you (singular) go as follows, in the present, imperfect, and perfect tenses, respectively: -s, -bas, and -isti. The Latin verbs for you (plural) go as follows, in the present, imperfect, and perfect tenses, respectively: -tis, -batis, and -istis.
The three main verb tenses in English are present, past, and future. Present tense refers to actions happening now or regularly. Past tense refers to actions that have already happened. Future tense refers to actions that will happen at a later time.
A suffix is a part of a word that goes at the end. Suffixes come from the Greek and Latin languages and usually tell tenses.
