The correct present subjunctive passive of incipimus is __________.
incipiamur
incipiamus
inciperemus
inceperimus
incepissemus
Explanation
The original verb _incipimus_is first-person plural; therefore we must find the first-person plural passive subjunctive of this verb. The subjunctive stem for the verb incipere is incipia-, taking the "ia" as the marker for the subjunctive. We then add "mur" to the end to make it passive in the first-person plural present tense.
