Latin
In Latin conjugation the future perfect is found by using the perfect stem + a declined future being verb (ero). An exception is that the active indicative 3rd person plural is formed from the perfect stem + erint, instead of + erunt. E.g., amaverint, not amaverunt.
The future perfect active is formed thus:
| perfect stem | + | future perfect suffix |
+ | thematic vowel |
+ | person and number ending |
| dix- | -er- | -i- | -mus | |||
| We shall have spoken | ||||||
The future perfect passive is formed thus:
| perfect passive participle | + | future of sum |
| amātus | erō | |
| have been loved | I will |

Famous quotes containing the word latin:
“There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring ‘em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifry.”
—Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
“Where liberty dwells there is my country.”
—Anonymous. Latin phrase.
Adopted as a motto by U.S. patriot and orator James Otis (1725-1783)
“But these young scholars, who invade our hills,
Bold as the engineer who fells the wood,
And travelling often in the cut he makes,
Love not the flower they pluck, and know it not
And all their botany is Latin names.
The old men studied magic in the flowers.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
