Explanation of participles (in case you were wondering) and why they do NOT have verb endings
Participles are verbal nouns. So they do not have a verb ending. On the synopsis, you can choose which of the five cases you want your participle to be in, (example, iubeo, iubere, iussi, iussus in the perfect active would be iussus/iussa/iussum, or the any other five case endings)
Future active participle

Add 1st/2nd endings (remember, feminine, masculine, or neuter, depending the the subject, on the synopsis, I would recommend listing out both m and f )
