In morphology, the principal parts of a paradigm are a minimal subset of the paradigm from which the formation of all the other members of the paradigm can be deduced.

Example

In Latin grammar, the principal parts of verbs are often taken to be the first person singular present indicative active, the infinitive, the 1st person singular perfect indicative active, and the perfect passive participle:

laudo    laudare    laudavi     laudatum
moneo    monere     monui       monitum
duco     ducere     duxi        ductum
capio    capere     cepi        captum
audio    audire     audivi      auditum
