Iterum 12/1

Warm-up
  • Textbook p. 112, Exercise B, ODDS only
    • Concepts we reviewed in the warm-up:
      • dominus vs. dominum
        • dominus is in the nominative case
          • the nominative case is used for the “doer” of the action (i.e. subject)
        • dominum is in the accusative case
          • the accusative case is used for the “receiver” of the action (i.e. direct object)
      • agricola vs. agricolae & senex vs. senēs
        • agricola & senex are both singular
        • agricolae & senēs are both plural
          • Subjects must agree with verbs in number. (If the verb is singular, the subject must be singular and vice versa.)
            • e.g. NOT We is in Latin class.
        • the verb in #3, festinaverunt, is plural, so the subject must be plural, agricolae
        • the verb in #7 is singular, so the subject must be singular, senex
      • Tense:
        • All of the verbs in Exercise B are perfect tense.
          • excitavit & festinaverunt both have the v in the stem (remember Darth Vader)
          • The endings also tell you the tense. Remember the song!


Singular
Plural
1st person
-imus
2nd person
-istī
-istis
3rd person
-it
-ērunt

§  fecit, discessit, portaverunt all have perfect endings
