DESIGNATION OF THE VERB.

736. A verb is usually named by the present indicative active first

person singular: as, #regō#; #laudō#, #moneō#, #audiō#; or by the

present infinitive active: as, #regere#; #laudāre#, #monēre#, #audīre#.

Deponents are named by the corresponding passive forms: as, #queror#;

#mīror#, #vereor#, #partior#; or #querī#; #mīrārī#, #verērī#, #partīrī#.

737. For convenience, verbs with #-ere# in the present infinitive active

are called _Verbs in_ #-ere#; those with #-āre#, #-ēre#, or #-īre#,

_Verbs in_ #-āre#, #-ēre#, or #-īre#, respectively. In like manner

deponents are designated as _Verbs in_ #-ī#; or _Verbs in_ #-ārī#,

#-ērī#, or #-īrī#, respectively.
