Explanation:

For each sentence, we need to choose the correct verb form based on Latin grammar rules. In Latin, the second - person singular (tu) form of the verb in the present tense has specific endings. For example, for the verb "pingere" (to paint), the second - person singular is "pingis". For "portare" (to carry), the second - person singular is "portas". For "habere" (to have), the second - person singular is "habes". For "videre" (to see), the second - person singular is "vides". And the first - person singular (ego) form of these verbs: "pingo" (I paint), "porto" (I carry), "habeo" (I have), "video" (I see).
