LESSON XXV

FUTURE ACTIVE INDICATIVE OF REGŌ AND AUDIŌ

155. In the future tense of the third and fourth conjugations we meet with a new tense sign. Instead of using -bi-, as in the first and second conjugations, we use -ā-^[1] in the first person singular and -e- in the rest of the tense. In the third conjugation the final -e- of the stem is dropped before this tense sign ; in the fourth conjugation the final -ī- of the stem is retained.^[2]
