The verb forms which do not have personal ending are known as non-personal verbs or noun-verbs. These verb forms simultaneously have nouns’ characteristics (they are nouns or adjectives) and verbs’ characteristics (tense, voice…).
In Latin we have three verbal nouns (infinitive, gerund and supine) and two verbal adjectives (participle and gerundive). Morphology is as follows:
Infinitive:
|
Present |
Past |
Future |
| Active |
amā-re |
amāv-isse |
amāt-ārus,
-a,
-um (esse) |
| Passive |
amā-rī |
amātus,
-a,
-um (esse) |
amātum
īrī |
- The present passive infinitive of third conjugation has -ī morpheme (i.e. dīcī from the verb dīcō).
- The future passive infinitive -um īrī is hardly used and it is replaced in most cases infinitive of the passive periphrastic conjugation (gerundive + esse). I.e. Amandus,-a,-um (esse).
Participle:
|
Present |
Past |
Future |
| Active |
amāns-
ntis |
|
amāt-ūrus,
-a,
-um |
| Passive |
|
amātus,
-a,
-um |
|
Gerund:
| Accusative |
Genitive |
Dative-ablative |
(ad)
ama-nd-um |
ama-nd-ī |
ama-nd-ō |
Gerundive:
Supine:
| Accusative |
Dative-ablative |
| amāt-um |
amat-ū |
