Present Active Participle
Use the second principal part…remove the -re to getthe present stem
add “-ns” = “-ing” amans = loving
after the nominative, “-ns” becomes “-nt + third declensionendings” … hence, amantem = loving amantes = loving
The action of the present active participle always happens atthe same time as the action of the main verb…and indicateswhat someone is doing.All present active participles are third declension adjectives.

Perfect Passive ParticipleThe Perfect Passive Participle is the fourth principal
part!
amo, amare, amavi, amatus –a –um = having been loved
The Perfect Passive Participle indicates action that
has happened to a noun (rather than something the
noun has done).
The action of the Perfect Passive Participle always
happens before the action of the main verb.

Future Active Participle
The Future Active Participle uses the participial base from the fourth principal part, and adds –urus, -a, -um from the fourth principal part of the verb “to be”:
sum, esse, fui, futurus –a –um
Take amo, amare, amavi, amatus –a –um and
replace –us –a –um with –urus –a –um
amaturus = about to love/going to love

Gerunds
Gerunds are nouns made out of verbs

Gerundives
Gerundives are formed the same way as gerunds, but where gerunds are nouns, gerundives are adjectives, and use all numbers, genders and cases.
Hence, currendus –a –um, etc. (the gerundive may also be called the future passive participle – there is no English equivalent)
