Jens mentioned a rule for the thematic vowel: -o- before voiced
sound, nothing before unvoiced. This verb follows the rule: -o-
before voiced sound, -e- before unvoiced.
But remember the rules of sandhi in Latin:
'Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori'
is pronounced
'Dulce-t decoru~-st pro patria mori'
which changes the paradigm into
sum
's
'st
sumus
'stis
sunt
