conjugate
List verb tenses
Conjugate has meanings unified by the idea of joining or pairing.
In grammar, to conjugate a verb is to list its inflected forms: I run, you run, he runs.
In biology, conjugate describes organisms that pair for reproduction or genetic exchange.
In chemistry and optics, conjugate refers to things joined in a reciprocal relationship—conjugate acids and bases, conjugate focal points.
As an adjective, conjugate means coupled or yoked together.
