(Love) 

In linguistics, conjugation refers to the process of inflecting a verb to indicate different grammatical aspects such as tense, mood, voice, person, and number. It involves altering the form of the verb to match the specific grammatical requirements of a sentence. Conjugation allows us to express actions or states in different time frames, indicate who is performing the action, and convey other nuances related to the verb's usage within a sentence. Conjugation patterns can vary across languages, and each language typically has its own set of rules and forms for conjugating verbs.
