Learning Target

• Recognize how future tense is shown in Latin
  words (for 1st and 2nd conjugations)

3
Future Tense

• How do we tell something is going to happen in
  the future in English?
• What helping words do we use?

4
Future Tense in Latin

• In Latin, we do not use helping words, but we use
  an added syllable (can we think of it as a
  helping syllable or maybe a tense sign?) to
  show future tense. We add bi- to the stem of
  the word and before the personal word ending.
  Think of this as standing for the helping words
  will or shall.
• Exceptions
• 1st person singular - drop off the i and just
  uses bo.
• 3rd person plural the i becomes a u, so it
  will be bunt.

Future Endings

• - bo -bimus
• -bis -bitis
• -bit -bunt
