# Latin II/Verbs Present 2 Lesson 3

Salvēte omnēs! Welcome back to Latin for Wikiversity. Here you can peruse a new lesson in Latin, in a simple format. If you would like to catch up, you can find a directory of lessons, a classified vocabulary list, and Memrise courses at the links on the right.
We have added several verbs, but still have a long way to go. All of our new verbs this lesson are in the 3rd conjugation. Two of them are “i-stem” verbs, which have some characteristics of 4th conjugation verbs but still belong in the 3rd. Also, we've used the medieval invention of the letter J and use it in jaciō ... but purists prefer to stick with the letter I whenever it is used as a consonant. We’ll try to give both versions in the Memrise course whenever that is an issue. For the record, we've used punctuation and capital letters even though they weren’t systematized until modern times.
One more note: these verbs have many different shades of meaning, and there are other Latin verbs that are sometimes used as synonyms. We can’t possibly introduce every different usage, or every synonym, so we haven’t tried at this point. They’ll need to be picked up at a more advanced level, when we are more confident with basic conjugations.
