Latin

In Latin, most verbs have four principal parts. For example, the verb for "to carry" is given as porto - portare - portavi - portatum, where porto is the first-person singular present active indicative ("I carry"), portare is the present active infinitive ("to carry"), portavi is the first-person singular perfect active indicative ("I carried"), and portatum is the neuter supine.
