386 of the most frequently used irregular verbs in the Latin language with all four principal parts. These verbs belong to the 4th Conjugation: (venio, venire, veni, ventum). Note that these verbs are all compounds of the intransitive verb "venio." Nevertheless, not all of the verbs in this episode are intransitive. Some are transitive. Listen carefully to the fourth principal part to determine whether the verb is more likely to be intransitive (vent-um) or transitive (invent-us).

386 of the most frequently used irregular verbs in the Latin language with all four principal parts. These verbs belong to the 4th Conjugation: (salio, salire, salui, saltum). Note that the PERFECT ends in -UI. Note also that two of the verbs in this episode (salto and insulto) belong to the 1st Conjugation. They are built off of the fourth principal part (SALT-UM > SALT-ARE) or what would have been the fourth principal part (INSULT-UM > INSULT-ARE), if it existed. Such verbs denote repetitive or continuous action. This is why the verb SALTARE means "to dance," because dancing - for the Romans, at least - was an act of leaping and bounding continuously.
