Comment initial deponent

[Music] latin has two different voices oh i got you right off the bat with some grammatical jargon so voice yeah active or passive or in other words for an active voice verb the subject does the action well for a passive voice verb the subject receives the action what if that's just a little too simple for latin what if there's something more so let's talk about deponent verbs the little bit of complexity around this active and passive voice thing we identify the different voices by means of a verb's ending so for instance the passive personal endings eris term or mini enter are different from the active ones o the letter s and t then most tiss and unt or sometimes we do something completely different for each voice like in the perfect tense where the active voice has the e is the it imis is aeron endings well the passive voice has the perfect participle with the sum s est samos estes sunt if you need a refresher on this please go ahead and watch one of my other videos on well the passive conjugations especially for the present and perfect tenses in a sentence with an active voice verb the subject does the action custodes captivos custodion the guards guard the prisoners but in a sentence with a passive voice verb the subject receives the action captivity acoustodebus custodian tor the prisoners are guarded by the guards you should have a basic understanding of voice because i'm going to spend a lot of time talking about the passive voice in passive forms so that's how voice works for most verbs but not deponent verbs i'm going to keep our active and passive sentence up but add a third this time with what we call a deponent verb custodes captivos the guards follow the prisoners note that the sentence structure looks a lot like our active sentence with the nominative and accusative forms but the verb itself looks like the passive custody untour with that untour ending in other words while the deponent verb itself looks passive it has an active meaning the term deponent comes from the latin verb de ponere meaning to set aside deponent verbs have as the saying goes set aside their passive meanings while keeping their passive forms but apart from that deponents follow the regular rules around conjugating a verb with passive forms it's just their meaning that's different you recognize a deponent in the dictionary because it's typically listed with three forms all of them passive so hortor hortari hortato which means to urge our first principle part is still the first person singular the i form i urge of the present tense and note the or passive ending the second principle part is the present infinitive to urge but again note the passive infinitive ending in ari and finally we have the first person singular the i form again of the perfect tense i urged or i have...
