25.11 While the formation of the imperfect tense is relatively straightforward, there are a handful of –μι verbs that exhibit slight irregularities:

  • δίδωμι δώσω give
  • τίθημι θήσω put, make
  • φημί φήσω say
  • ἵστημι στήσω stand
  • ἵημι ἥσω throw
  • εἰμί ἔσομαι be

25.12

(cf. S 416)

Note that δίδωμι uses –ου– in the singular (S 746b).

25.13

(cf. S 416)

Note that τίθημι uses –ει– in the 2nd and 3rd person singular (S 746b).

25.14

(cf. S 783, G 382)

This verb shows no irregularities!
