adímur PLUP. aditus eram PLUP. aditus essem

Thus inflected, the forms of are used impersonally in the third person singular of the passive: as, itum est (§ 208. d). The infinitive írí is used with the supine in -um to make the future infinitive passive (§ 193. N.). The verb véneó, be sold (i.e. vénum eó, go to sale), has also several forms in the passive.

b. In the perfect system of the forms with v are very rare in the simple verb and unusual in the compounds.

c. ii before s is regularly contracted to í: as, ísse.

d. The compound ambió is inflected regularly like a verb of the fourth conjugation. But it has also ambíbat in the imperfect indicative.

e. Pró with retains its original d: as, pródeó, pródís, pródit.
