Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

[gratus], to manifest joy, to wish one joy, to congratulate, to rejoice with, rejoice (mostly poet. or in post-Aug. prose; not in Cic.; class. gratulor, congratulor): nec tibi me in hac re gratari decet, Att. ap. Serv. Verg. A. 5, 40: inveni, germana, viam: gratare sorori, Verg. A. 4, 478; Ov. M. 6, 434: invicem inter se gratantes, Liv. 9, 43, 17: nescia, gratentur consolenturne parentem (by zeugma), Ov.
