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
