e, 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. 2. -tis; -stis (Perf. Ind.); -mini. -te, -tote (Impv.); 3. -nt; -erunt (Perf Ind.); -ntur; -ntor (Impv.). -nto (Impv.); VERB STEMS. 97. Conjugation consists in appending certain endings to the Stem. We distinguish three different stems in a fully inflected verb,-- I. Present Stem, from which are formed-- 1. Present, Imperfect, and Future Indicative, 2. Present and Imperfect Subjunctive, 3. The Imperative, 4. The Present Infinitive, - (Active and Passive.) 5. The Present Active Participle, the Gerund, and Gerundive. II. P
