PRONOMINAL ADJECTIVES.

92.  The following adjectives, also, frequently have pronominal force:—­

1. alius, another; alter, the other;
    uter, which of two? (interr.); neuter, neither;
    whichever of two (rel.);
    unus, one; nullus, no one (in oblique
                                         cases)

2.  The compounds,—­

uterque, utraque, utrumque, each of two; utercumque, utracumque, utrumcumque, whoever of two; uterlibet, utralibet, utrumlibet, either one you please; utervis, utravis, utrumvis, either one you please; alteruter, alterutra, alterutrum, the one or the other.

In these, uter alone is declined.  The rest of the word remains unchanged, except in case of alteruter, which may decline both parts; as,—­

  Nom. alteruter altera utra alterum utrum
  Gen. alterius utrius, etc.

CHAPTER II.—­Conjugation.

93.  A Verb is a word which asserts something; as, est, he is; amat, he loves.  The Inflection of Verbs is called Conjugation.

94.  Verbs have Voice, Mood, Tense, Number, and Person:—­

1.  Two Voices,—­Active and Passive.

2.  Three Moods,—­Indicative, Subjunctive, Imperative.

3.  Six Tenses,—­

Present, Perfect,
Imperfect, Pluperfect,
Future, Future

          
                        Perfect.

But the Subjunctive lacks the Future and Future Perfect; while the
Imperative employs only the Present and Future.

4.  Two Numbers,—­Singular and Plural.

5.  Three Persons,—­First, Second, and Third.

95.  These make up the so-called Finite Verb.  Besides this, we have the following Noun and Adjective Forms:—­

1.  Noun Forms,—­Infinitive, Gerund, and Supine.

2.  Adjective Forms,—­Participles (including the Gerundive).

96.  The Personal Endings of the Verb are,—­

Active.  Passive.
Sing. 1. -o; -m; -i (Perf.  Ind.); -r.
2. -s; -sti (Perf Ind.); -ris, -re;
-to or wanting (Impv.); -re, -tor (Impv.).
3. -t; -to (Impv.); -tur; -tor (Impv.).
Plu. 1. -mus; -mur.

VERB STEMS.

97.  Conjugation consists in appending certain endings to the Stem.  We distinguish three different stems in a fully inflected verb,—­
