Usage
This is the main Latvian verb conjugation template. It has the main principal forms of the verb and the conjugation type as its input, and a conjugation table as its output.
First of all, the named parameter {{{pol}}}
identifies a verb as positive or negative (if negative, {{{pol}}}
= ne; if positive, {{{pol}}}
is left undefined). If the verb is negative, then the positive infinitive must be indicated with the parameter {{{inf}}}
(i.e., for netulkot "not translate", {{{pol}}}
= ne and {{{inf}}}
= tulkot).
The basic parameter is {{{3}}}
, which contains the conjugation type. Values: {{{3}}}
= 1st (first [short] conjugation), 2nd (second [long] conjugation, or 3rd (third [mixed] conjugation). A second basic parameter is {{{4}}}
, in that if it is set to "only-3rd", then only the third persons will be displayed (the others will be replaced with a long dash); if it is not "only-3rd", then the following is valid:
If {{{3}}}
= 2nd, then:
{{{1}}}
= verb stem (without the thematic vowel);{{{2}}}
= thematic vowel;{{{4}}}
(optional): for verbs that can be conjugated both as * 2nd and 3rd conjugation verbs, this parameter must be set to "3rd".
If {{{3}}}
= 3rd, then:
{{{1}}}
= verb stem (without the thematic vowel, and, for alternating palatalizing verbs, without the final consonant);{{{2}}}
= thematic vowel;{{{4}}}
= (for alternating palatalizing verbs) the final consonant in the present stem (either "k" or "g");{{{5}}}
= (for alternating palatalizing verbs) the final consonant in the past stem (either "c" or "dz");{{{irr}}}
= the irregular stem of some irregular verbs (e.g., tecēt, gulēt);{{{irr1}}}
= 1 if the verb (ending in -āt) has an irregular zero-marked third person instead of -a (e.g., dziedāt, raudāt; for other cases,{{{irr1}}}
is left unspecified.
If {{{3}}}
= 1st, then:
{{{1}}}
= infinitive stem (i.e., the infinitive form minus the final -t; for stems in -zt, -st, and palatalizing stems in -kt, -gt, also minus the stem-final consonant, see the following two points how to specify them);- infinitives ending in -st will probably need the named param
zstd=
with the value being past stem-final consonant, verbs with 3past ending in -za, -da, -ta will need this always; - conversely stems in -kt, -gt have the named param
kc=
to specify k or g;
- infinitives ending in -st will probably need the named param
{{{2}}}
= the first-person present stem;{{{4}}}
= the second-person present stem;{{{5}}}
= i if the second-person present form ends in i; otherwise, it is left unspecified.{{{6}}}
= the past tense stem.{{{7}}}
= ī if there is an additional ī between the stem and the future tense endings{{{8}}}
= conjugation subtype (for categorization); possible values (the default value is "irregular"):- "pal" = palatalizing type
- "ipal" = irregular palatalizing type
- "len" = lengthening type
- "len-ps" = lengthening type (length in past tense)
- "len-pr" = lengthening type (length in present tense)

- "n/j-l" = n/l type with lengthening
- "n/n-s" = n/n type with shortening
- "n/v-l" = n/v type with lengthening
- "st" = -st- type
- "st-g" = -st- type, palatalizing g-stem
- "st-k" = -st- type, palatalizing k-stem
- "st-v" = -st-/-v- type
- "st-j" = -st-/-j- type with shortening
- "s/t" = s/t (dental) type
- "s/t-l" = s/t (dental) type with lengthening
- "s/t-d" = s/t (dental) type with diphthongizing
- "s/d" = s/d (dental) type
- "s/d-l" = s/d (dental) type with lengthening
- "s/d-d" = s/d (dental) type with diphthongizing
- "ž/d" = ž/d (dental) type
- "unc" = unchanged type
Very irregular verbs bypass this template and call {{lv-conj-table}}
directly (see, e.g., būt).
