Re: Why are there 6 principal parts instead of only 5?
...if you give me the stem for the 6th principal part, I can tell you what the 5th principal part is (because it always appears to be based off of the same stem). Thus, it seems to me that the 5th principal part is redundant and could be eliminated. The most difficult example I have found is τι θη ...

Re: Morphology and word meaning methusko vs. methuo
