First 3 tenses active and passive practice

First look at the personal ending. If active, it will end in o/m, s,t,mus,tis or nt (for I you, he, we, you pl, they)
If passive, it will end in r,ris,tur,mur,mini,ntur).
Then look at the letters before the personal ending, if it is just the verb stem (infinitive minus -re), then it is in present tense - happening now. If there is a -ba before the ending, then it is imperfect tense and is translated was,were, used to, kept on or just "verb"ed. If there is a b, bi, bo, be, bu before the ending, it is in the future tense and will happen.
