_153._ The Dative with Special Intransitive Verbs. We learned above
(Sec. 20.a) that a verb which does not admit of a direct object is
called an _intransitive_ verb. Many such verbs, however, are of such
meaning that they can govern an indirect object, which will, of
course, be in the dative case (Sec. 45). Learn the following list of
intransitive verbs with their meanings. In each case the dative indirect
object is the person or thing to which a benefit, injury, or feeling is
directed. (Cf. Sec. 43.)
cre:do:, cre:dere, _believe_ (give belief to)
faveo:, fave:re, _favor_ (show favor to)
noceo:, noce:re, _injure_ (do harm to)
pa:reo:, pa:re:re, _obey_ (give obedience to)
persua:deo:, persua:de:re, _persuade_ (offer persuasion to)
resisto:, resistere, _resist_ (offer resistance to)
studeo:, stude:re, _be eager for_ (give attention to)
_154._ RULE. Dative with Intransitive Verbs. _The dative of the
indirect object is used with the intransitive verbs /credo\, /faveo\,
/noceo\, /pareo\, /persuadeo\, /resisto\, /studeo\, and others of like
meaning._

LESSON XXV
FUTURE ACTIVE INDICATIVE OF _REGO:_ AND _AUDIO:_
_156._ In the future tense of the third and fourth conjugations we meet
with a new tense sign. Instead of using -bi-, as in the first and
second conjugations, we use -a:-[1] in the first person singular and
-e:- in the rest of the tense. In the third conjugation the final -e-
of the stem is dropped before this tense sign; in the fourth conjugation
the final -i:-
