Deponent VerbsPassive Revision
To properly understand deponent verbs, it is essential that we have passives under our
belts. So here is a speedy revision to help you along:
There are two voices in Latin: the active ands the passive. In the passive voice, the
subject is on the receiving end of the verb - it is getting the action done to it.
puer a puella pulsitur - the boy is kicked by the girl.
There are three tenses you need to know in the passive - the present, imperfect and
perfect. However, you only need to know the 3rd person singular and plural - here is a
table of just those parts.
tense 1st group 2nd group 3rd group 4th group
present portatur monetur trahitur auditur
portantur monentur trahuntur audiuntur
imperfect portabatur monebatur trahebatur audibatur
portabantur monebantur trahebantur audibantur
perfect portatus sum monitus sum tractus sum auditus sum
portati sunt moniti sunt tract sunt auditi sunt
