SEMIDEPONENT VERBS
Semideponent verbs--as their name suggests--are deponent but only partially so. In the present system of tenses (present/imperfect/future) they are regular active verbs. BUT in the perfect system of tenses (perfect/pluperfect/future perfect) they become deponent: passive in form but active in meaning. Such perfects are formed as always with the participle + a form of sum. Only eight verbs need concern us here. NOTE: The verbs libet, licet, placeō, and taedet may be used as semideponents in the perfect system, but need not be.

cōnfīdō cōnfīdere cōnfīsus sum 3rd / trust + DAT.

libet libēre libuit / libitum est (may be semideponent) 2nd / it is pleasing + DAT. (impersonal)

Sample Deponent Verb with Translations
Note: the perfect system includes a participle; it is necessary to make the participle agree with the subject.
Perfect of gaudeō (There will obviously be no neuter participle for this verb because only people can be glad.)
gāvīsus/gāvīsa sum I (have) rejoiced
gāvīsus/gāvīsa es you (have) rejoiced
gāvīsus/gāvīsa est he/she (has) rejoiced
gāvīsī/gāvīsae sumus we (have) rejoiced
gāvīsī/gāvīsae estis you (all have) rejoiced
gāvīsī/gāvīsae sunt they (have) rejoiced
