- Principle Parts
- Characteristics as an irregular verb
- stem changes in principal parts
- stem changes within the present tense
- the future and imperfect use the stem "er"
- no tense markers in the future and imperfect
- uses regular endings throughout the present system
- Allen & Greenough sets forth the paradigm at #170

memorize and drill!
