Let’s compare the two sentences:<\/p>\n
(1) Port\u014d sum<\/strong><\/p>\n (2) Port\u014d <\/strong><\/p>\n Both sentences mean “I am carrying” or “I carry” or “I do carry”. “Sum” is unnecessary because “port\u014d” by itself means “I carry”.<\/p>\n Now take a look at (1) – (6). Note that am\u0101re = to love.<\/p>\n (1) Am\u014d<\/strong> = I love<\/p>\n (2) Am\u0101s<\/strong> = You love<\/p>\n (3) Amat<\/strong> = He\/She\/It loves<\/p>\n (4) Am\u0101mus<\/strong> = We love<\/p>\n (5) Am\u0101tis<\/strong> = You all love<\/p>\n (6) Amant<\/strong> = They love<\/p>\n Now can you figure out the meanings of (1) – (6) based on the conjugations above?<\/p>\n (1) c\u014dgit\u0101s<\/strong> (c\u014dgit\u0101re<\/strong> = to think)<\/p>\n (2) dubit\u014d<\/strong> (dubit\u0101re <\/strong>= to doubt)<\/p>\n (3) lab\u014dr\u0101mus<\/strong> (lab\u014dr\u0101re<\/strong> = to labor\/work)<\/p>\n (4) nec\u0101tis<\/strong> (nec\u0101re<\/strong> = to kill)<\/p>\n (5) pugnat<\/strong> (pugn\u0101re<\/strong> = to fight)<\/p>\n (6) spectant <\/strong>(spect\u0101re<\/strong> = to watch)<\/p>\n The answers will be posted in the next post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Let’s compare the two sentences: (1) Port\u014d sum (2) Port\u014d Both sentences mean “I am carrying” or “I carry” or “I do carry”. “Sum” is unnecessary because “port\u014d” by itself means “I carry”.
