This article explores the morphological and etymological characteristics of cognitive verbs in the French language. Cognitive verbs, which denote mental processes such as thinking, believing, understanding, and knowing, play a vital role in expressing abstract thought. The study analyzes their conjugation patterns across different verb groups (1st, 2nd, and 3rd) and highlights irregularities in usage. Furthermore, it investigates the Latin roots of these verbs, shedding light on their historical development and semantic evolution. The findings provide valuable insights into the structure and origin of key French verbs used in intellectual and reflective discourse.
