How do you say Lets walk in Latin?
In latin there are several different ways to answer this question, as well as several different ways to say "walk" which is obviously a verb. There are six tenses for a verb, but I am only familiar with three. These are Present, Imperfect and Perfect tenses. You would also generally use the word "ambulat" as a beginner in latin to say this. This word, and all the other ways to pronounce "walk" in latin will be in first conjugation, and the connecting vowel will be "a" because of this. In present tense there are: Ambulo - I (am) walkng Ambulas - You (singular) are walking. Ambulat - He/she/it is walking Ambulamus - We are walking. Ambulatis - You (plural) are walking. Ambulant - They are walking (note that in present tense you could say, walks, are walking, is walking). Imperfect tense: Ambulabam - I was walking Ambulabas - you (singular) were walking. Ambulabat - He/she/it was walking. Ambulabamus - we were walking. Ambulabatis - you (plural) were walking. Ambulabant - They were walking. (note that another alternative ending could be, and rarely is, "used to") Perfect: Ambulavi - I walked. Ambulavisti - you (singular) walked. Ambulavit - he/she/it walked. Ambulavimus - we walked. Ambulavistis - you (plural) walked. Ambulaverunt - they walked. (note that an alternative way to say this tense is to have the word "have" before the verb). This is all I can tell you at the moment, however, note that when you pronounce and ending, use the alternative ending that makes more sense in english. An example of the common way to say "walk" as a beginner latin student, which I mentioned at the beginning of this answer is: Servus Ambulat. This translates to.... The slave is walking.
