Conjugate a Latin verb is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

TL; DR: Did just one term of Latin, right before posting this realised 'dāre' should probably be 'dare', left as an exercise...

The following extended version can deal with regular verbs of all four conjugations. To distinguish 2nd and 3rd conjugations, an over-bar is placed above the penultimate 'e' in a second conjugation infinitive but accents are otherwise ignored. <lang ecmascript>var endings = [

   ["eo", "es", "et", "emus", "etis",  "ent"],
