What is a semi deponent verb in Latin?

What are Latin deponent verbs?

When a Latin verb is passive in form, but has an active meaning, it is called a deponent verb. For example: sequor, sequi, secutus sum (3) means 'to follow' and not 'to be followed'. Even though it appears to be passive, it is translated with an active meaning and can have an object following it.

Is Loquor a deponent verb?

They are called deponent verbs because they have “laid aside” (dëpönö, -ere) their passive meanings but have retained their passive forms. They are translated only in the active voice. Thus: loquor, loqui, locutus sum, to speak, talk loquor = I speak loquitur = he, she, it speaks etc.

Is UTOR a deponent verb?

Here's another important third-conjugation deponent: utor, uti, usus (sum), meaning “use, enjoy, experience.” Utor expects an ablative(!) noun in place of an accusative object. That is, if you “use something” in Latin, the “something” will be in the ablative case.
