Conjugate

[Jason Yan]

The hard part about [learning a new language]. Conjugating the verb is changing the end of the verb so it fits the tense (past or present?), number (singular or plural?), person (1st, 2nd, 3rd?), and many other fancy [grammatical] aspects (perfect, [imperfect]?) of the rest of the sentence.

[Luis Fok]

[PussyCat]

The unlearned [way] of [saying] [congregate].

[Konrador 0]

formed by the union of two compounds

[Gembakrofe]

a mixture of two partially miscible liquids A and B produces two conjugate solutions: one of A in B and another of B in A

[Julian]

joined together especially in a pair or pairs

[Marionaduant]

unite chemically so that the product is easily broken down into the original compounds

[argey]

undergo conjugation

[Williamorect]

Any entity formed by joining two or more smaller entities together.

[Sonia]

More generally, any of a set of irrational or complex numbers that are zeros of the same polynomial with integral coefficients.

[psycho]

An explementary angle.

[psycho]

To inflect (a verb) for each person, in order, for one or more tenses.

[RobertaInvag]

In mathematics, a conjugate typically refers to a pair of mathematical expressions or quantities that are connected by a specific mathematical operation yet have opposite components. The term conjugate can have different meanings depending on the domain of math:

1. In complex numbers, the conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign.

2. In algebra, the conjugate of a binomial expression (a b) is its corresponding binomial formed by negating the second term (a - b) or vice versa.

3. In abstract algebra, conjugate elements in a group are elements related through a similarity transformation.

4. In geometry, conjugate diameters of an ellipse or hyperbola are any two diameters such that a tangent line to the curve at the endpoint of one diameter is parallel to the other diameter, and vice versa.

The broader meaning for conjugate includes the idea of forming a complementary or related pair in a particular mathematical situation.
