PREFACE
TO THE SIXTH EDITION.

The object of the present work is to make the jpong


student practically acquainted, at each step of his prog-
ress, with those portions of the grammar which he may

from time to time commit to memory, and which re-


late principaUy to the declension of nouns and conju-

gation of verbs. The advantages which this system


has over the old method of teaching the Latin gram-
mar are so obvious as hardJy to require any particular
mention. By the old plan the student was required to
plod through his grammar several times before he was
allowed to enter on the process of translation, and, as
a natural consequence, he acquiied a disrelish for the
language on its very threshold, while many things were
continually escaping from his memory which might
have been firmly fixed there had something like the
present plan been adopted.
The work here offered to the public purposes to rem-
edy this evil. As soon as the beginner has mastered
some principle relative to the inflections of the lan-
guage, his attention is directed to exercises in transla-
tingand writing Latin, which call for a practical appli-
cation of the knowledge he may have thus far acquired
and in this way he is led on by easy stages, until he is
made thoroughly acquainted with all the important rules
that regulate the inflections of the Latin tongue.
The work ends with a brief sketch of Latin syntax,
the main object of which is to give the student merely
a general idea of this part of Latin grammar, prepar-

atory to his entering on the Secand Part. This Second


Part forms a separate volume, and is arranged on a plan
closely resembling that of the present work, the object
being to make the student acquainted, by exercises in wri-
ting Latin, with not only the general principles, but also
the nicer points, of the Syntax of that tongue. These two
parts, therefore, willform a Grammar of the Latin Lan-
gvage, possessing this decided advantage over other gram-
mars, in its containing a complete course of exercises, which
have a direct bearing on each step of the studentfs prog-
ress ; while the subject of Prosody, which is crowded into
a corner of the ordinary school-grammars, will be found
discussed in a separate work just published. The author's
Latin Prosody, therefore, may not unaptly be regarded as
forming the third part of his Latin Lessons, and comple-
ting, in fact, his Grammar of the Latin Tongue.
The gramraatical portion of the present volume is

based upon the excellent work of Zumpt, as it appears


in the translation of Kenrick. The exercises have
been taken from some of the best collections prepa-
red by the scholars of Germany, and, wherever they
require any previous acquaintance with the Latin syn-
tax, such aid is always afforded at the outset.
It remains but to add that the vocabulary at the end

of the volume has been made as complete as possible,


and that several words that were omitted in preparing
it are now printed in the form of a supplement.

LATIN LESSONS

I. ALPHABET.
I. The Latin alphabet is the same as the English, exccpt
in itswanting the w, and also the capital y.
II. The w can only be used when modern names are to

be expressed in Latin. The smaller y occurs merely in


words derived immediately from the Greek; as, syllaba,
Cyrus, and corresponds to the Greek upsilon or u.

III. The reason of no capital


y appearing in Latin is
simply this : every Greek word beginning with an upsilon
has that upsilon aspirated, that is, pronounced as if com-
mencing with an h ; hence no word in Latin can begin
with a y, but must always commence with hy.
IV. H is only an aspiration, and therefore, when joined
with a consonant, does not lengthen the preceding vowel.
V. J and v were written by the Latins with the same
ietters as the vowels i and u, namely, I and V, but were
%
distinguisked in pronunciation.
VI. K became a supernuous letter, C having supplied its

place ; but it still continued to be employed in a few words,


when followed by the vowel a, as, for example, in Kalenda.
VTL Z occurs only in words derived from the Greek.

n. VOWELS AND DIPHTHONGS.


I. Six of the letters are vowels, namely, a, e, j, o, u, y
the remainder are consonants.
II. The vowels are combined into eight diphthongs,
namely, ae, oe, ai, ei, oi, ui, au, eu.

III. The diphthongs ei, oi, ui, occur, however, only in a


l

2 CONSONANTS. PARTS OF SPEECH.

few words, chiefly interj/ctions, as hci, eia, oiei, hui, and


when dein, proin, huic, cui, are contracted into one syllable,

as they commonly are in verse. The diphthong ei was


written for the long t in heic (for hic, "here"), and queis
(for quis, i. e., quibus), and in those accusatives plural of the
third declension which are formed in is ; as, omneis, arteis,

for omnes, artes.


IV. The diphthong yi, occurring, for example, in Har*
pyia (three syllables), is nothing more than the Greek ui (vi)

III. DIVISION OF CONSONANTS.


I. The consonants are divided into semi-vowels and mutcs.
II. The semi-vowels are /, l, m, n, r, s, v ; the remaining
consonants are mutes, and are so called because they can-
not be formed without an interruption of the sound by the
closing of the lips, on which account they always need an
accompanying vowel in order to be fully enunciated.
III. Four of the semi-vowels, namely, l, m, n, r, are

called liquids, from the ease with which, in pronunciation,


they follow other consonants.
IV. X and Z are double consonants, the former bein*
equivalent to cs, ks, or gs, and the latter to ds.
V. The consonants, exclusive of the liquids, are divided,
according to the organ by which they are enunciated, irito

labials, palatals, and dentals.


VI. The labials are formed bythe lips,and are v,b,p,f.
The palatals are formed by the tongue against the roof of
the mouth, and are g, c, k, q. The dentals are formed by
the tongue against the teeth, and are d, t.

IV. PARTS OF SPEECH.


I. There are nine parts of speech in Latin, five of which
admit of inflection, that is, are either declined or conjugated ;

the remaining four admit of no inflection.


II. The parts of speech which admit of inflection are the
Noun, Adjective, Pronoun, Vcrb; Participle, of which the

Digitized by Google
NOUN 3

noun, adjective, pronoun, and ^articiple are declined, and


the verb is conjugated.
III. The parts of speech which admitof no inflection are
the Adverb, Preposition, Conjunction, and Interjection.

V. THE NOUN.
I. The Noun is name of any person, place, or thing.
the
II. Nouns are of two kinds, Proper and Common. Prop-
er nouns are the names of individual men or other objects.
Common nouns aTe those which denote a whole class of
objects, and can only be applied to individuals so far as they
belong to that class.
III. Nouns have three genders, the Masculine, Feminine f

and Neuter.
IV. The cases are six in number, namely, the Nomina-
tive, Genitive, Dative, Accusative, Vocative, and Ablative.

V? There are two numbers, namely, the Singular and


Plural.
"
' "
VI. DECLENSION OF THE NOUN.
I. Declension is the varying of a noun by cases and
numbers.
II. There are five declensions, distinguished from each
other by the termination of the genitive singular. Thus,
The genitive of the first declension ends in ae
" " second " " t;
« .
" third " " is;
« " fourth " " us;
" " fifth
" . " ei.

IH. The following general rules, regulating the different


declensions, must be carefully remembered.

OENERAL RDLES.
1 . Nouns of the neuter gender have the nominative, ac-
cusative, and vocative alike in both numbers, and these
cases in the plural end always in a.
2. The vocative singular, except in Greek nouns in as

and es of the first, and in some nouns of the second, is

like the nominative; but in the plural the vocative


and nominative are alike in all the declensions.
3. The accusative singular ends, where no exception
arises from neuters, in m. Thus we have in the dif-
ferent declensions,

12 1/771,
3
€171,
4
U77lj
5
6171.

4. The genitive plural ends always in um, and hence we


have in the difTerent declensions,

1 2 3 4 5
drum, drum, um, uum, erurru

5. The dative plural has the same termination as the ab-


lative plural in all the declensions. The ending in the
different declensions are as follows

1 2 3 4 5

r
\s, %sf

VII.
ibus, tbus or ubus,

ebus.

+
I. Nouns of the rlrst declension end in a, e, as, and es.

II. Those nouns of this declension that end in a are of


Latin origin, the remainder are Greek.
III. Nouns in a have the following terminations in the
different cases of the singular and plural.

Singular. Plural

D. Mens-Is, to oifor tables.
Acc. Mens-as, tables.

V. Mens-se, oh tables !
Ab. Mens-Is, with,from, in, or by tables.*

IV. Some feminine nouns have abus in the dative and


ablative plural instead of is
; as, deabus, filidbus, and this

ending in abus serves to distinguish them from their cor-


responding masculines in us of the second declension,
which have the dative and ablative plural ending in is
The following are some of these nouns :
!

Dea, a goddess. 1 S 8 Deu8 > a god.


f
Filia, a daughter. | Filius, a son.
Equa, a mare. * § I Equus, a horse.
Mula, a she-mule. . J Mulus, a mule.

]

Nata, a daughter. Natus, a son.


Anima,
|J
the soul. .5 Animus, the mind.
Famula, a maid-servant. & t Famulus, a man-servant.

1. Theseare, in fact, veiy old forms, since, in the earlier periods of the
Janguage, the termination bus was common to datives and ablatives
in
all the declensions. In good prose writers, however, the form is of dea,
filia, equa, and mula is the more common, especially if an adjective
be
joined with it, as mfiliis duabus, for this removes all the ambiguity.

Preliminary Rules. 1
1. Substantives referring to the same thing agree in
case; as, Cicero orator, " Cicero the orator Urbs
Athena, " the city Athens."
2. One substantive governs another in the genitive when
they refer to different things ;
as, Timor Dei, " the
fear ofGod ;" Lex natura, " the law of nature."
3. Any verb may have the same case after it as before
it, when both words refer to the same thing as, Jus- ;

titia est virtus, " Justice is a virtue ;" Cicero vocatur


orator, " Cicero is called the orator."
4. A verb signifying actively governs the accusative;
as, amo Deum, " I love God ;" habemus divitias, " we
have riches."
5. The preposition in governs the ablative when motion
or rest in a place is signified ; non sunt in
as, diviti<B

pecunia sed in sapientid, " riches consist not in money,


but in wisdom."

Vocabulary.

Est He, she, or it is.

sunt They are.

erat He, she, or it was.


erant They were.
fuit He, she, or it has been, or was?
fuerunt They have been, or were.
habet He, she, or it has.

habent They have.


et and.

exercises in the different declensions. The same remark applies to the
short vocabulary which follows immediately after.

IX. The genitive of words in ius and ium was not


formed in ii in the best age of the Latin language, but in t

alone ; as, TtiUius, gen. Tulli ; mancipium, gen. mancipu


X. Substantives in ius, if they are proper names, as Ftr-
gilius, Terentius, Tuttius, make the vocative in t ; as, Vtr-
w
gili, Terenti, Tulli; so also do filius, " a son, and genius,
"a genius," asfili, geni.
XI. Other substantives in ius, and proper names that con-
tinue adjectives, form the vocative in e ; as,gladie, Delie, &c.
XII. Deus makes the vocative like the nominative ; as,

Oh Deus !
XIII. The genitive plural of some words, especially those
which denote value, measure, and weight, is commonly

formed in um instead of orum; particularly nummum, ses


tertium, modium, &c.
XIV. Deus has in the nominative plural three forms, dei,
dii, and di ; and three forms also in the dative and ablative

plural, deis, diis, and dis.

X. GREEK NOUNS OF THE SECOND DECLENSION.


I. Greek nouns in os are declined like the Latin nouns
in us, except that they make the accusative end in on in-
stead of um. Thus :

Singular.
N. Del-os, Delos.
G. Del-i, of Delos.
D Del-6, to oxfor Delos.

Acc Del-on, Delos.


V. Del-e, oh Delos
Ab. Del-6, with, &c, Delos.

D. Tened-o, to or for Tenedos.

Acc. Tened-on, Tenedos.


V. Tened-e, oh Tenedos !

Ab. Tened-o, with 9 &c, Tenedos.

II. Greek nouns in eus (evg) are declined two ways.


Either the eus is pronounced as one syilable, and then the
declension belongs to the third ; or else eus is pronounced
as eus, two syllables, and the manner of declining is like
that of Latin nouns in us. In both modes of inflecting,
however, the vocative ends in eu. Thus :

Singular.

N, Orph-eus, Orpheus.
G. Orph-eos, ;
of Orpheus.
D. Orph-eJ, to orfor Orpheus.

Acc. Orph-ea, Orpheus.


V. Orph-eu, oh Orpheus!
Ab. Orph-eo, with, <fec, Orpheus.

Singular.

N. Orphe-us, Orpheus.
Q. Orphe-I, of Orpheus.
D. Orphe-o, to orfor Orpheus.

Acc. Orphe-um, Orpheus.


V. Orph-eu, oh Orpheus!
Ab. Orphe-6, with, &c, Orpheus.

III. The preferable mode of declining, for prose, is Or-


pM-us, gen. Orphi-i, &c The other mode is poetical.

XII. ADJECTIVE.
I. The adjective denotes quality, and is either joined
with a substantive or pronoun in the sentence, or refers to
some one understood.
II. Some adjectives have different terminations for all
three genders. Some have one for the masculine and fem-
inine, and another for the neuter. Some again have only
one (in most of their cases) for all the genders.
III. Adjectives have two declensions, namely, thefirst and
second, forming one combined declension, and the third.

IV. Adjectives of the jirst and second declension follow


the terminations of the first and second declensions of nouns.

V. Adjectives of the third declension follow the termina-


tions of the third declension of nouns.

XIII. FIRST AND SECOND DECLENSION OF ADJEC-


TIVES.
I. Adjectives of this declension are of three terminations,
namely, *us or -er for the nominative singular masculine,
a for the feminine, and -um for the neuter ;
as,

M. F. N.
Nom. Magn-us, Magn-a, Magn-um, "great."
Ten-er, Tener-a, Tenir-um 9 "tender."

Digitized by Google
ADJECTIVES 21

II. The termination in -er was, ih early Latin, -erus, as


tenerus ; so that, at one period of the language, the ending
in -us marked the nominative singular masculine of all the
adjectives of this declension.
III. Hence it becomes plain why tenerus, afterward
changed to tener, makes tener-a in the feminine and tener-
um in the neuter. And so of the other adjectives in r.
1

IV. The following adjectives in er reject e before r in


declinine : namelv.

Mger, atgr-a, <Bgr-um, " sick."


Ater, atr-a, atr-um, " coal-black."
Creber, crebr-a, crebr-um, " frequent."
Macer, macr-a, macr-um, " lean."
Niger, nigr-a, nigr-um, " black."
Pulcher, pulchr-a, pulchr-um, " fair."
Ruber, rubr-a, rubr-um, " red."
Sacer, sacr-a, sacr-um, " sacred."

Scaber, scabr-a, scabr-um, " rough."


Tatter, tatr-a, t<Btr-um, " foul"

Vafer, vafr-a, vafr-um, "cunning."


Sinister, sinistr-a, sinistr-um, " left."

V. Miser, " wretched," and the other adjectives in er

exclusive of those mentioned in the previous paragraph,


retain the e before r. Dexter, " right," sometimes retains
the e and sometimes rejects it. Sinister, " left," always

rejects it.

1. The same remark will apply to nouns in ert tr, and ur of th«
second declension. These all ended originally in us, as Alexander-u$
(compare the Greek *MKe^avdp-oc) y vir-us, &c., and hence the termina
tion in t of the genitive singular, like other nouns in us. In forming
the genitive in t some of these nouns in r retained the preceding e, but
the greater number dropped it. The case is just the reverse with the
adjective, the greater number retaining the e. Many of the so-called
nouns in r, however, of the second declension are, in fact, only adiec-
tives, with a noun understood.

IV. Nouns in o.

I. Nouns in o (where the o is common, that is, either

long or short) add nis to form the genitive, sometimes only


lengthening the o (that is, keeping it long) and sometimes
changing it to ?.

long before nis, and, consequently, have it long also in the
other oblique cases, namely,

carbo, a coal, gen. carbonis.

(anax), make, however, actis ; as, Demonax, gen. De-
monactis.
3. Nouns in ex make icis ; as, judex, gen. judlcis. But
vibex makes vibicis, and lex and rex make legis and
regis. And again, ^reo? makes grigis ; nex makes
necis ; remex makes remigis ; senex, senis ; and su-
pellex, supellectilis.

4. Nouns in ix make their genitives in icis or icis.


Among the latter are cervix, " the neck," gen. cervicis
cicatrix, " a scar," gen. cicatrtcis ; phcenix, " a fabulous

all female appellations ; as, inventrix, " an inventress,"

5. Nix, " snow," makes nftns ; and strix, " a screech-
owl," strigis.
6. Worda in ox make octs ; as, vox, " the voice," gen.

docis ; Alldbrox, " an Allobrogian," makes Allobrogis
and ncw, " night," makes noctis.

REMARKS ON THE CASES.


1. Genitive Singular.
I. The apparent variety in the formation of the gemtive case becomcs
greatly simplified and limited in extent if we suppose, what is no doubt
actually the case, thafthe genitive singular is formed from the root of
the noun by merely adding t>, and that the final letter of the root is ei-
ther a t or some other consonant more or less concealed in the nomina-

tive.

II. The following table will serve to illustrate this remark more clearly.

NOMINATIVB. Root. 1 Genitive.

js em, with the exception, of course, of neuter nouns, the accusative o


which is always like the nominative.
Many words m is, however, which do not increase in

5. Greek words will be considered presently by themselves. Many


pioper names of cities and rivers, however, not Greek, form their accu-
eatives in im, after the analogy of the Greek ; as,

Albis, the Elbe, accus. Albim.


tt

it
Bs3tis, Ihe Guadalquiver, Baetim.
tt
Bilbilis, Calatajud, BilbHim.
8.
Hispalis, Seville, Hispalim.
tl
Tiberis, the Tibery Tiberlm.

3. Ablative Singular.

1. The regular ending of the ablative singular is in e; but all words


which have im in the accusative, except those Greek words wbich have
idis in the genitive, make the ablative in i instead of e.

2. The ablative of restim f however, is reste; while, on the other


hand, navi is more common than nave.
3. Neuters in «, a/, and ar have also i in the ablative ; as, mari y
vec-

tigdlij calcari. But far, baccar, jubar, htpar, and nectar keep e ; and
sal, even when used as a neuter, has only sale.

4. Rus has both rure and ruri, but with this dirTerence of meaning,

namely, rure, " from the country," and ruri, " in the country."
5. Names of months in is and er have % in the ablative ; as, Aprili,

Septembri ; and also those substantives in is which were originally ad-

jectives ;
as, aidtiis, affinis, anndlis, familidris, gentilis, sodalis, 6cc.

But when such adjectives become proper names, they always make the
ablative in e ; as, Juvendlc, Martidle, &c.

4. Nominative, Accusative, and Vocative Plural.

1. In th* nominative, accusative, and vocative plural, the neuters in

c, al, and ar make ia ; as, rnaria, vectigalia, calcaria.

2. But far makes farra ; while jubar, hepar, and nectar have no plu-
,,
ral. Sal has no neuter plural, but makes sales, " witticisms.

5. Genitive Plural.

The regular ending of the genitive plural is in um ; but the following


make inm instead of it.
6

Digitized by
50 THIRD DECLENSION.

1. Neuters in e, al, and r, which make ia in the nominative plural

as, marium, animalium, calcarium.


2. Nouns which do not increase in the genitive singular ;
as, nubts,
nubium ; civis, civium, &c. ; except vates, strues, canis, panis
juvenis, which form the genitive plural in um ; while, on the other
hand, Quirites and Samniies, which do increase in the genitive sin-
gular, have Quiritium and Samnitium. The words apis and vol-
ucris have sometimes ium, but more commonly um.
3. The following in er ; as, imber, linter t venter, uter ; but pater,
mater, fratcr, and accijnter form the genitive in um.
4. Of monosyllabic substantives, those in s and x preceded by a con-
sonant make ium ; as, montium, arcium, dentium. Lynx alone
makes lyncum, and the obsolete ops (from which we have the plu-
ral opcs) opum.
5. Of monosyllabic words ending in s preceded by a vowel, the
greater part make the genitive in um; as, crus, crurum; crux,
crucum ; dos dotum ; flos, florum, &c.
f
; but glis, lis, mas, vis y
and os (ossis) make twm.
6. Of monosyllabic words ending in x preceded by a vowel, oiily
four have ium, namely, faux (obsolete in the singular), nix, strix,
and nox ; all the rest have um.
7. Substantives of two or more syllables in ns and rs have the ter-
mination ium along with that in um, which is less common as, ;

cliens, clientium (less frequently clientum) ; cohors, cohortium (less


frequently cohortum), &c. Also those which are properly particip-
les ;
as, adolescens, infans, parens, serpens, sapiens, which, from
being used as substantives, admit also the termination um ; as, pa-
rentum ; but ium is more common.
8. The names of festivals in alia, which are in use only in the plural
as, Bacchanalia, Saturnalia, form the genitive in ium and orum;
as, Bacchanalium and Bacchanaliorum.

XXVIII. IRREGULAR DECLENSION.


I. Two nouns are here to be considered, the declension
of which presents an anomalous or irregular appearance,
namely, Jupiter and bos.
II. The proper name Jupiter made originally Jupiteris
in the genitive, Jupiteri in the dative, Jupiterem in the ac-
cusative, and Jupitcre in the ablative, the vocative being
like the nominative.

Digitized by Google
THIRD DECLENSION. 51

III. In process of time, however, the nominative and


vocative of this foim of declension were alone retained,
and the other cases were borrowed from another nomina-
tive Jovis, which made Jovis also in the genitive. Hence
\ve have the following mode of declining the proper name
Jupiter.

N. Jupiter, Acc. Jovem,


G. Jovis, V. Jupiter,
D. Jovi, Ab. Jove.

IV. The declension of bos is as follows ; the v in the


oblique caaes coming from the Greek digamma.

Bos, " an ox" or 4<


cow."

Singular. Plural.
N. B5s, N. B6v-es,
G. Bov-Ts, G. B6-um (old form bov-urri),

D. Bov-I, D. Bu-bus (less frequently bd-bus),

Ac. Bov-em, Ac. Bov-es,


V. Bos, V. Bov-es,
Ab. B6v-e. Ab. BG-bus (less frequently bo-bus).

XXIX. GREEK WORDS OF THE THIRD DECLENSION.


I. In the genitive singular the poets often use the Greek terraination
os for is, especially of words in is, gen. idis ; as, Daphnis, gen. Daph-
nldos ; Phasis, gen. Phastdos, &c, and of nouns in as and ys ; as, Pal-
PaUados
las, gen. ;
Tethys, gcn. Tethyos. In prose the Greek form is

nncommon.
II . Feminines in o ; as, Dido, Sappko, echo, have usually the Greek
genitive in us ; as, Didus, Sapphus, echOs. The Latin genitive in onis
also occurs for the proper names, but is less usual ;
as, Diddnis, Sapphb-
nis. The dative and accusative end either in o, according to the Greek,
or in oni and onem, according to the Latin.
III. The Greek accusativeof the third declension in a is seldom used
by the best prose writers, with the exception of aera, cethtra, Pana, which
are the common forms. Wbrds in is and ys make their accusatives,
even in prose, in in and yn, as well as im and ym ; as, for example,
Nabin y Halyn. But, in general, the Latin form is preferable.
IV. All Greek words which in that language form their accusative in

Digitized by
52 EXERCISES ON THB THIRD DECLENSION.

iv (in) have in Latin their accusative in im ; as, basim, poesim, &c #


Greek nouns, on the other hand, which have in that language an acute
accent on their final syllable in the nominative, form in Latin their accu-
sative in idem, never in im ; as, pyrdmis, accus. pyramtdem ; Chalcis,

accus. Chalcidem.
V. Proper names in es, genitive is, which in Greek are of the first

declension, have in Latin, along with the accusative in em, the lermina-
tion en; as, Achillen, JEschtnen; especially barbarous names ; as, Xer-
xen, Euphrdten.
VI. Words which in Greek are doubly declined in ov (ou) and nrot
(etos) have in Latin also both forms is and etis, and in the accusative
make also en ; as, Chremcs, genitive Chremis and Chremetis ; accuaa-
tive Chrcmem, Chremetem, and Chremen.
VII. The vocative singular is commonly in Greek the same with the
nominative, as in Latin. But words in is, ys> and as (antis), which in
Greek reject * in the vocative, do it also in poetry in Latin ;
as, Daph-
nis, voc. Daphni; Tethys, voc. Tethy ; Calchas, voc. Calcha (nevei
Calchan).
VIII. In the nominative plural neuters in oc (os) have the Greek ter-
mination e ; as, cete, mele, Tempe.
IX. Of Chaos, besides the nominative and accusative, only the abla-
tive Chao occurs.
X. In the genitive plural only a few words have the Greek termina-
tion bn (w), and that only as titles of books ;
as, metamorphoseon, epi-
grammatbn.
XI. The accusative plural in as is admissible in all wbrds which have
the termination in Greek, but is rarely used in prose ;
as, harpagonds.
The form Macedonas, however, occurs frequently in Livy.

XXXI. THIRD DECLENSION OF ABJECTIVES.


L
Adjectives of the third declension follow, as has al-
ready been said, the third declension of nouns.
II. These adjectives are divided into two classes, the
first having two terminations, one for the masculine and
feminine, and another for the neuter ; and the second class
having but one termination throughout for all the genders.

1. Adjectives of two terminations.


I. These consist of adjectives ending in is, is, e, and of
comparatives in or, or, us, that is, having one and the same
termination (is in the case of the fonner, or in that of the
tatter) for the masculjnjpand feminine, and another (e in
the case of the former, us in that of the latter) for the neu-
ter gender.
II. Their respective declensions are as follows

Masc. " Fem. Neut.


Brevis, Breve, "short."
Singular. Plural.
N. Brev-is, -is, -e, N. Brev-es, -es, -ia,

III. Several adjectives in is 9 is, e,have also, in the nom


inative and vocative singular masculine, a specific ending
in er besides the termination in is. In other respects they
are declined like brevis. Thus,

Masc. Fem. Neut.

IV. The nominative masculine in is is raiely used in


prose for the adjectives in the preceding paragraph.
V. The following are some of the others declined like

acer.

VI. All other adjectives besides those thus far mentioned


have only one ending in the nominative singular for all
genders ;
as, feltx, prudens, solers, and the participles in
ns ; as, amans, monens, &c.
VII. In some of the other cases, however, they have, as
will be perceived, two terminations, namely, one for the
masculine and feminine, and another for the neuter. Thus,

Masc. Fem. Neut.

found.

IX. The ablative singular pf adjectives in is, is, e, and


er or is, is, e, ends in i ; as, brevi, acri.

X. The ablative singular of comparatives, and of adjec-


tives with one termination, ends in e or i ; as, majore or
2
majort ; breviore or breviori ; felice or felici ; prudente or
prudcnti.
XI. Participles,when used as adjectives, make the abla-
tive in e or i ; when used as participles.
but only in e
XII. All adjectives and participles which make their
ablative singular in t only, or in e and i, make the neuter
plural in ia, except comparatives ; os,felicia, amantia; but
majora, doctiora?
XIII. In the genitive plural all words make ium which
have ia in the nominative ; as, felicium, amantium. To
which add plurium and complurium. The rest have um, as
veterum, doctiorum.*

1. We find plura in writers of the best age. The compound complu-


res, on the other hand, has both complura and compluria.
2. In comparatives the termination e is preferable, as agreeing with
the usage of the best prose writers.
3. Vetus makes vetera. The adjective plus has already been referred
to in note 1. Dives makes in the plural ditia, contracted from divilia.
Such forms as victrix, &c, though properly feminine substantives, aro
used as neuter in the plural ; as, victricia bella.
4. Calebs, princeps and particeps, celer, degener, divcs, inops, memor
and immemor, pubes and impubes (plur. pubercs), quadruplex, supplex,
vetus, uber, and the compounds of color and of facio (cnding in fex),
have um. The adjectives in ccps, gen. -cipitis (from caput), anceps,
prmceps, biceps, triceps, make ium, sometimes syncopated into um. jvi-
guam and frugi are indeclinable. The latter is properly the dative of
the obsolete frux.

FOURTH DECLENSION. 73

VIII. The foUowingwords,belonging to this declension,


have ubus instead of ibus in the dative and ablative plural.
Acus, a needle. Partus, a birth.
Arcus, a bow. Pecu, cattle.

Artus, ajoint. Portus, a harbour.


Ficus, 1 a fig- Specus, 2 a den.
Genu, a knee. Tribus, a tribe.

Lacus, a lake. Veru, a spit.

IX^ Trie followinor worrl i(3 111 JJLo dl t> 1 t/IIlllllIJty*

Acus, a needle.
Anus, an old wornan.
Domus, a house.
Manus, a hand.
Nurus, a daughter-in-law.
Socrus, a mother-in-law.
Porticus, aportico.
Tribus, a tribe.

Quercus, an oak.
Ficus, a fig-
Idus, the ides of the month.
Quinquatrus, a festival of Minerva.

X. A genitive in i was formed from some nouns in us,


according to the second declension, and this form found is

in good prose writers ;


as, for example, senati and tumulti
in Sallust.

XI. A dative in u instead of ui is very often employed,


especially in Caesar.
XII. The noun Domus is both of the fourth and second
declensions; thus:

1. Instead of ficubusvre find ficis (from ficus, gen. -i) commonly used.
Porlus and tonttru, " thunder," have both ubus and ibus, but portubus
and tonitribus are bcst.
2. Specus is masculine, but in the poets and in the nominative it is
found as a neuter. Penus is of three forms, namely, penus, gen. -us t
of the fourth declension, masculine ; penum, gen. -i, of the second, neu-
ter; and penus, gen. -dri*, of the third, neuter.

III. Only three words, dies, res, and species, have the
plural complete ; and Cicero condemns even specierum and
speciebus.
IV. When a consonant precedes ei in declining, the e is
short ;
as, jidei, rei. When a vowel precedes ei, the e is
long ;
as, diei, maciei.

V. An old form of the genitive singular is e for ei, which


is used occasionally by some of the best writers ;
as, pcr-
nicie for perniciei, acie for aciei.

VI. Words of the fifth declension are feminine, with thc


exception of dies, which is masculine and feminine in the
singular, but masculine only in the plural. Meridies, " mid-
day," is masculine only, and does not occur in the plural 1

government in each clause or phrase.

Facies est pars capitis. —Oculi et nasus sunt partes


faciei. —Fides est justitiae fundamentum. —Fundamenta fidei

Christianae sunt stabilia. —Dies est pars hebdomadis, heb-

l. Dies is most commonly masculine


in prose. Cicero uses it as
a femioine equivalent to length of time, when it means a day
when it is

fixcd and appointed, especially in judicial proceedings, &c. The com-


mon rule, that dies is masculine when it is spoken of a specified day,
and feminine when used to indicate duration of time, is not, therefore,
sufficiently exact.

XL COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES.
I. The degrees of comparison arc three in number, name-
ly, the Positive, Comparative, and Superlative.
II. The unchanged form of the adjective is called the
Positive degree.
III. The Comparative degree denotes that the quality ex-
pressed by belongs to one of two objects in a greater de-
it

gree than to the other.


IV. The Superlative degree denotes that the quality ex-
pressed by it belongs to one of several objects in a greater
degree than to any of the rest.

1. Formation of ihe Degrees.

I. The Comparative is formed by adding or for the mas-


culine and feminine, and us for the neuter, to a case of the
positive ending in t ; as,

durus, duri, comparative, durlor.


brevis, brevi, " brevior.

audax, audaci, " audacior.


1

II. The Superlative is formed by adding ssXmus to


the

same case of the positive from which the comparative was


formed; as,

oZurus, duri, superlative, durisslmus.

brevis, brevi, " brevissimus.

audax, audaci, " audacissimus.

III. Hence the comparison of these three adjectives is as


follows

Positive. Comparative. Superlative.


Durissxmus, " hardcst.'
.„.„:.- ^ ^

Durior, " harder."


:s-\ - „ , ; i 7 « t i : l .. ... .

Rastrum, " a harrow," plural rastri and rastra.

sxnxstrx. It comes,

of the genitive, sxnxstcrx, the old nom-
fact,however, from the old form
inative having been sinisterus, whence auerward
sintster.

64 C0MPARI80N.

2. Eaxeptions.

I. AU the adjectives in er form the snperlative by adding


rimus to the nominative singular masculine ;
as,

Pulcher (pulchri), pulchrior, pulcherrtmus


Acer (acri), acrior, acerrtmus.
Pauper (pauperi), pauperiw, pauperrimus.

II. But vetus and nuperus make veterrimus and nuperri*


mus. Of maturus both maturissimus and maturrimus are
in use, especially in the adverb.
III. Some adjectives in ilis form the superlative in t/ft-

mus ; as,

facilis, " easy," facilior^ facilltmus.


diffictlis, " difficult," dtfficilior, difficilltmus.
simtlis, " like," similior, similltmus.
*

dissimllisi " unlike," dissimilior, dissimilltmus.


gractlis, " slender," gzacilior, gracillimus.
humtlis, " lowly," humilior, humillimus.

IV. The superlative of agilis and docilis does not occur in


the classics. The verbals in bilis have no superlative.
V. Adjectives compounded with -dtcus, -ftcus, or -volus,
from dico,facio, or vo/o, form their comparatives in entior
1
and their superlatives in entissimus ; as,

maledtcus, " slanderous," maledicentior, maledicentissimus.


munificus, " munificent," munificentior, munificentissimus.
henevolus, " benevolent," benevolentior, benevolentissimus
9

3. Comparison by Adverbs.
I. Those adjectives in which a vowel precedes do
not form their comparative in or and their superlative in
issimus, but employ instead of these terminations the ad-
1. The compounds of loqui, as, grandiloquus, vanildquus, are also
said to form their comparison from loquens, but no examples can be
nroduced.

multuSy "many," < ^plurimus* 1
{ Plural, plures, plura,
parvus, "little," minor, minimus.
nequam, "worthless," nequior, nequissimus

II. Divcs, " rich," has commonly for its comparative


ditior, and superlative ditissimus. Of dexter, dexterior, the
superlative is dextimus, in the sense of " farthest on the
right," but not in that of " most lucky."2
III. The following adjectives have a double irregular su-
perlative, namely, exter," without ;" inferus, " below su-
perus, " above ;" and posterus, " after." Thus,
Exter, exterior, extremus and extlmus.
Inferus, inferior, inflmus " imus.
Superus, superior, supremus " summus.
Posterus, posterior, postremus " postumus.

IV. There are also some comparative and superlative


forms which have no adjective-positive, but an adverb de-
rived from the adjective. Thus,
(citra, " on this side"), citerior, citimus
(ultra, "beyond"), ulterior, ulttmus.
(intra, " within"), interior, inttmus.
(prope, " near"), propior, proxlmus.

V. Of the following there is neither adjective nor ad-


verbial positive.

deterior* " worse," deterrtmus.


ocior, " swifter," ocissimus.
potior, " superior," potissimus, " best," " chiefest."
prior, " former," primus, " first."

1. Plurimi means either " very many" or


u the most." PUrique has
the latter sigiiification only, and wants the genitive plural.
2. Dexterrimus, which is given by grammarians as the superlative of
dcxter, is nowhere found, any more than sinistimus from sinister.
3. Deteriar must not be confounded with pejor. Pejor is worse than
8omething which is itself bad ; deterior worse than something which is
good. It is, therefore, a descending, as melior is an ascending compar-
ative, df bonus.

EXERCISES ON COMPARISON b7

VI. Of many adjectives no superlative is found, though


the comparative is in use ; as the verbals in bilis, and most
adjectives in alis and ilu.
VII. Adolescens, juvenis (comparative junior), and senex
(comparative senior) also want the superlative.
VIII. Of many adjectives and participles used as adjec-
tives there is neither comparative nor superlative, since the
sense precludes comparison ; as, crastlnus, " of to-morrow ;"
infinitus, " infinite innumerus, " countless ;" sccundus,
" second ;" tertius, " third ;" ater, " coal-black," &c.

XLI. EXERCISES ON THE COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES


Preliminary Rules.
1. The comparative degree requires the ablative; as,

dulcior melle, " sweeter than honey ;" ocior vento,


" swifter than the wind."
2. Frequently, instead of the ablative, the nominative,
preceded by quam, " than," is placed after the com-
parative ; as aer est levior
(
quam aqua, " air is lighter

than water."

XLII. NUMERALS.
I. The numerals are partly adjectives and partly adverbs.
II. The adjective-numerals are divided into five classes,
namely, Cardinal, Ordinal, Distributive, Multiplicative, and
Proportional.
III. The Cardinal numbers answer to thc question " how
many ?" as, unus, "
one two tres, " three."
duo, "
IV. The Ordinal numbers express the place or numbers
in succession as, primus,
;
" first ;" secundus, " second."
V. The Distributive numbers denote how many to each
as, bini, " two each," or "two by two ;" terni, "three
each," &c.
VI. The Multiplicatives denote how many fold ;
as, du
plex, "twofold" or "double;" triplex, " threefold," &c.

VII. The Proportionals denote how many times more


as, triplus, " triple ;" quadruplus, " quadruple," &c.
The Adverbial numerals answer to the question
VIII.
" how many times ?" as, bis, " twice ;" ter, " thrice," &c.

1. Cardinal Numbers.
r
I. The first three cardinal numbers are declined. rhe
rest as far as ten, and the decimals as far as a hundred,
are indeclinable. The hundreds, as far as a thousand, are
again declinable.
II. Mille, " a thousand," is indeclinable, but has a plural
to be used in the series that will presently be given.
III. Above a thousand, the Latins express numbers by
combination, as, decies centena millia, " ten times a hun-
dred thousand," that is, " a million ;" vicies centena millia,
" twenty times a hundred thousand," or " two miilions," &c.
IV. The declension of the first three cardinal numbers

VIII. The thousands are expressed either by prefixing


the numeral adverbs bis, ter, quater, to mille (a construction
chiefly used by the poets), in which case mille is indecli-
nable ; or we may say, duo, tria, unum et viginti, centum
millia. In the latter case, the things numbered are in the
genitive as, Mardonium in Gracia reliquit cum trecentis
;

millibus armatorum. " He left Mardonius in Greece with


three htindred thousand armed men ;" unless a declined nu-

meral comes between as, habuit tria millia trecentos mili»


;

tes, " ho
had three thousand three hundred soldiers."
IX. From 20 to 100, either the smaller number with et
precedes, or the larger without et ; as, sexaginta quatuor,

or quatuor et sexaginta. _
X. In duodeviginti, duodetriginta,^^ duo is indeclina-
ble.

XI. Above 100, the larger number piecedes with or with


out et ; as, centum et unus, or centum unus ; txccenti sex-
aginta sex, or trecenti et sexaginta sex.

8aid, to the question " how many apiece ?" or " how many
sach time ?" as, Scipio
et Hannibal cum singulis interpre-
tibus. " Scipio and Hannibal with an interpreter each "
Pueri senum annorum. " Boys, each of six years."
II. The distributives are also used with numeral adverbs
;

as, bis bina, " twice two


and with words which have no
;"

singular, or whose singular has a different signification from


the plural
;
as, binm copia, " two bodies of troops ;" bina
Utere, « two epistles." Binus is also used of things which

XLVI. PRONOUN.
I. The Pronoun is a word used in the place of a noun,
to avoid the repetition of the latter.
II. Pronouns are divided into Substantive and Adjective.

I. Substantive Pronouns.

I. The substantire pronouns are Ego, of the firat person


Tu, of the second ; and Sui, of the third.

II. Their declension is as follows :

Ego, " J."


Singular.
N. 1,

G. Mel, ofme,
D. Mihi, to orfor me,
Acc. Me, me,
V. Ego,* ohll
Ab. Me, with, &c, me.

1. In this and the two following examples, instead of giving the Latin

adverbs, we have, as a matter of convenience, employed the Arabic na-


merals with the algebraic sign of multiplication. Thus 41 51 means X
41 multiplied into 51, or 41 times 51, which the student, on his part,
roust express in Latin. •

2. Ego is commonly said to want the vocative in both nurabew. TThis


is wrong. We say 6 ego infelix ! " Oh unhappy I !" O »«. felices .

" Oh happy ye !"

PRONOUNS. 107

Acc. Se, themselves,


V. Wanting, ,

Ab. Se, with, &c, themselves.


III. To the cases of these three pronouns met may be


added, to express the English self; as, egomet, " I myself ;"
mihimet, " unto me myself sibimet, semet, &c. The gen-
itives plural, however, and the nominative tu do not admit
this suffix ; for tumetwe say tute. But met is added to the
other cases of tu ; as, tuimet, tibimet, &c.
IV. The
accusative and ablative singular admit a redu-
plication in the same sense ; as, meme, tete, sese. But sese
only is in common use for singular or plural.
V. Cum, " with," is affixed to the ablatives me, te, se,
making mecum, tecum, secum, nobiscum, vobiscum. This is
also usual with quo, qua, quibus ; but cum quo, &c, may
likewise be said.

II. Adjective Pronouns.

Adjective Pronouns are divided into seven classes, viz.,

I. Demonstrative. IV. Interrogative.


II. Intensive. V. Indefinite.
III Relative. IV. Possessive.
VII. Patrial.

1. Demonstrative Pronouns.

I. Demonstrative pronouns are such as distinctly point


out the object of which we are discoursing, with the ac-
cessory idea of place.
II. The Latin demonstrative pronouns are ille, iste, hic,
and is, with their compounds.
III. By composition with ecce or en ("lo," "behold")

wose the pronominal forms, used only in ftmiliar discourse,


*ccum, eccam, ellum, ellam, ellos, &c, " there he is," "there
»he is," &c.
IV. The declension of the demonstrative is as follows

with a substantive, and quid as a substantive governing the
genitive. Thus, quod benejicium est in hoc ? " what kind-
ness is there in this ?" But, quid beneficii est in hoc ?
V. Quis is sometimes used indefinitely for aliquis, " some
one."
VI. Ecquis and numquis are declined and used like quis,

7. Patrial Pronouns.

I. Patrial prououns have reference to a person's country


or the nation to which he belongs.
II. The patrial pronouns are nostras, vestras, and cujas,
and are declined like adjectives in as, genitive -atis, many
of which have also a patrial reference as, Arpinas, gen- ;

itive Arpinatis, " of or belonging to Arpinum."


III. The declension of nostras is as follows :

Nostras, " of our country?

Singular.
N. Nostr-as, -as, -as,

G. Nostr-ati8, -atis, -atis,

D. Nostr-ati, -ati, -ati,

IV. Vestras, genitive vestrdtis, " of your country," and
cttjas, genitive cujatis, " of what country," are declined ex-
actly like nostras.

I. To the adjective pronouns are commonly added the


following words ;
though, strictly speaking, most of them
are simple adjectives.
ARuSy "another." Vter, " which of two."
Ullus, " any one." Alter, " the other ;" " another."*
NulluS, "nOOne." Neuter, "neither."
Solus, " alone." Totus, " the whole."

II. The declension of alius is as follows


Masc. Fem. Neut.
Alius, Alia, Aliud, " another."

Singular.
N. Alius, Alia, Aliud,
G. Allus,* Allus, Alius,
D. Alu, AUi, Aln,
Acc. Alium, Aliam, Aliud,
V. > >

Ab. Alio, Alia, Alio.

Plural.
N. Alil, Aliae, Alia,
G. Aliorum, Aliarum, Alioru
D. Alils, Alils, Alils,
Acc. Alios, Alias, Alia,
V. 9

Ab. Alils, Alils, Alils.

1. Alter
means one of two, alius one of many. Hence the strict
meamng 0 f alius is " another ;" and that of alter. " the other." Fre-
Hueutly, however, we are compelled to translate alter, " another," but
never, at the
same time, to lose sight of its reference to merely one of
wo persons or things. Thus, in the expression nullum animal est pars
uteriu* animalis,
the reference is clearly to only one of two animals,
anu yet we
must transkte alterius here " another."

7*^e genitive of alius always has the long i both in prose and poetry,
81nce lt *
formed by contraction from ii.
l
Thus, altus for ali-ius.

XLVII. THE VERB.


I. The Verb is that part of speech by which it is declared
concerning anything that it either does or suffers somewhat.
II. From this general distinction are derived the two
principal forms of the verb, namely, active and passive.
III. Active verbs are divided into two kinds, namely,
transitive and intransitive, which latter are also called neuter.

IV. An intransitive* verb expresses an action or a state


which is not communicated from the agent to any other ob-
ject ; as, ambulo, " I walk ;" sto, " I stand ;" dormio, " I sleep."
V. A transitive verb expresses an action exerted upon
3
some object (which isput in the accusative case) ; as, amo
te, " I love thee ;" scribo epistolam, " I am writing a letter."

1. Hic, "here," the adverb.


in, " not," and transire,
From to pass over" or " across," the
44
2.
action not passing ovcr from the agent to any object. Transitive, from
transirc, " to pass over," where the action passes from the agent and is
exened upon some object.
3. It is not meant that every verb transitive must have an accusative
of thc object, but only that it may. When no object is expressed, the
transitive verb may often become intransitive in effect as, edit, " he is ;

eating ;" amat, " he is in love ;" whcre no object is expressed, though one
is necessarily implied. A
diiferent form is sometimes assigned to the
verb in the transitive and intransitive sense ; as, jacere, " to throw," ja-
ccre % " to lie ;" pcndcre, " to suspend," pendere, " to hang suspended,"

Digitized by
THE VERB. 1£9

VI. Transitive verbs have a passive voice that which ;

was the object and in the accusative case becoming the sub-
;"
ject and nominative case ;
«as, tu amaris, " thou art loved
epistola scribitur, " the letter is getting written."

VII. Intransitive verbs are only used impersonally in the


passive, that is, the verb appears in the third person singu-
lar without any definite subject; as, favetur tibi, "favour

is shown to you," equivalent to favent homines tibi, " men fa-


vour you ;" via excessum est, " it has been gone out of tho

way," &c.
VIII. There are also in Latin what are called Dcponent
verbs and Neuter-passives.
IX. Deponent verbs are such as have a passive form, but
an active meaning. Some of them are transitive, othersare

intransitive ; and they are called deponents, becausc they


lay asidc] as it were, their passive signification.
X. A Common verb has a passive terraination, with an
active and passive signification ; as, criminor, " I blame"

or "am blamed." It is generally considered as a deponent,


excepting in the perfect participle, which in these verbs
has either an active or passive signification. Thus we
may say either adeptus victoriam, " having obtained a vic-
tory," oxvictoria adeptd, " a victory being obtained." Adi-
piscor is therefore a common verb.
XI. Neuter-passives are active intransitive vcrbs, which
have a passive form with an active meaning in the perfect,
"
but follow the active form in the other tenses ; as, audeo, I
dare," perfect, ausus sum ; gaudeo, " I rejoice," perfect, ga-
vxsus sum, &c.
2
XII. The following verbs are called Neutral-passivcs,
namely, " I become" or " am made ;" vapulo, " I am
fio,

&c. is found with an accusative case, which some-


When a neuter verb
tiines happens, because it has obtained a tiansitive sensc and
it is either
considered as annexed
a regular passive voice, or the accusative is to be
adverbially to it, without being strictly its object.
1. From devono, " I lay aside."

2. Neutralia-passiva. The neuter-passives are called Neutro-passiva,

Digitized by Google
130 THE VERB

beaten ;" veneo, " I am sold ;" which, under an active form,
have a passive meaning, and serve as passives to facio,

verbero, and vendo. •

XIII. Some active intransitive or neuter verbs have par-


ticiples, which are passive in form but active in signifi-
cation ;
as, coznatus, " one who has supped ;" pransus,
" one who has dined ;" juratus, " one who has sworn."

1 . Voices.

I. A voice is that accident of a verb which denotes


whether an action or energy is confined to tho agent or
nominative ;
as, cado, " I fall ;" or is exerted by the nom-
inative upon an external object ; as, amo virum, " I love tlie
man ;" or is exerted by an external object upon the nom-
inative ; as, vir amatur, " the man is loved."
II. As only active transitive verbs exert an energy on
external objects, so these only admit a passive voice.
III. Hence the voices are two in number, Active and
Passive, the one ending in o; as, amo ; and the other in
or ; as, amor.

2. Moods.
f . A mood expresses the manner in which the action or1

. state denoted by the verb exists.


II. There are in Latin four moods, the Indicative, Sub-
junctive, Imperative, and Infinitive.
III. The Indicative declares the action or state to exist
simply as a fact.

IV. The Subjunctive declares it to exist as something


conceived by the mind. It is generally, however, called
the Potential mood when it denotes that the action or state
might, could, would, or should exist ; and the Subjunctive
when it is subjoined to certain words and particles to be
named hereafter.
V. The Imperative commands an action to be done or

1. The term mood is derived from the Latin mcdus, «« a manner "

Digitized by
THE VERB. 131

a state to exist ; as, scribe, " write tliou docetor, " let him
be taught."
VI. The Infinitive does not define the person or the time,
but only whether the action or state be terminated or not
terminated. In the former case it is called the Perfect, in
the latter the Present of the innnitive.
VII. By means of the participle in rus and the verb esse,
" to be," an infinitive is formed, denoting an act about to be

performed. By means of the participle in dus and the same


verb, another infinitive is formed, denoting a state that
should be produced. Thus, scio eum scripturum esse, " I

know that he is about to write." Intelligo hoc faciendum


esse, " I am aware that this should be done."

3. Tenses.
1
I.
'
Tenses are the times in which the action or state ol
the verb exists.
II. There are in Latin seven tenses, naraely, the Present,
Imperfect, Aorist, Perfect, Plupcrfect, First Future, and
Second Future.
III. The Present designates an action or state going on
at the present time ;
as, scribo, " I am writing."
IV. The Imperfect expresses an action or state that was
going on at some past time, but was imperfect or in-
still

complete ;
as, scribebam, " I was writing ;" currtbas, " thou
wast running."
V. The Aorist has the same form with the perfect, but

a"marked difference in meaning. It denotes an action or


state completely past, without any reference to another ac-
tion at the same or a different time as, scripsi, " I wrote ;" ;

feci, " I did."

VI. The Perfect, on the other hand, denotes an action or


state which has taken place, indeed, at a previous time, but
which is connected, either in it3elf, or its consequences, or
11
1. Tempus, the Latin for a tense," means rtme."

THB VERB.

its aceompanying circumstances, with the present; as


scripst, "l have written ;" feci, " I have done ;" where thc

inference naturally is, that the writing still exists, and that
the action has just been performed.
VII. The Pluperfect denotes an action or state that was
completed before some other action or state took place,
which also is past as, cedificaverat, " he had built." Prt-
;

usquam auxilia venerunt, hostes superavtrat, " he had con-


quered the enemy before succours arrived."
VIII. The First Future, 1 which might more correctly
be termed the Incomplete Future, dcnotes that an ection or
state will be going on some time hence, but not finished
as, coznabo, " I shall be supping ;" domus cedifcabitur, " the
house will be building."
IX. The Second Future, which might, in like manner,
bc more correctly called the Complete Future, denotes that
an action or state will be completed before another action
or state, which is also future, shall have taken place ; as,
c&navero, " I shall have supped." Cum fecero proficiscar,
" when I shali have done it, I will go."

4. Numbers and Persons.


I. A personal verb admits a person or thing as its subject
or nominative.
II. As one or more persons mdy speak, be spoken to, or
spoken of, there are two numbers ; namely, the singular,
which speaks of one, and the plural, which speaks of more
than one and ;

III. There are also three persons in each number. Ego,


tu, ille or illa, are the first, second, and third persons sin-

gular ; and nos, vos, illi or M<b, the first, second, and third
persons plural ; and to each of these the verb has appro-

1. In the ordinary grammars, the first future is given as the future


of the indicative, and the second future as the future of the subjunctive
This, however, is erroneous. Both tenses belong to the indicative. The
gubjunctive has no future

THE YERB. 133

priate variations in its ending: thus, ego amo, tu am-as,


&c.
IV. Two or more persons may become the subject but, ;

as the first person is preferred to the second, and the second


to the third, ego joined to tu or ille is equivalent to nos
tu joined to ille or illi, to vos.
V. All nouns in thc singular belong to the third person
singular ; those that are plural, to the third person plural.
VI. Pronouns, participles, or adjectives, having nouns
understood to them, belong to the third person.
VII. Qui takes the person of the antecedent. Ipse may
be joined, according to the sense, to any person.
VIII. To verbs also belong Participles, Gerunds, and Su
pines.

1. Participles.

I. A Participle is a part of speech derived from a verb

and partaking of the nature of a verb and an adjective.


II. It resembles an adjective in being declined by cases

and in agreeing with a noun ; and partakes of the nature


of the verb in being distinguished into different times, and
in governing the same case as the verb.
III. There are four participles ; one ending in ans or ens,
and another in rus, both generally active one ending in ;

dus, always passive ;* and another ending in tus, sus, or

I . Thc participle in dus is. comraonly called a future one of the pass-
ive voice, and we have retained the appellation for convenience' sake.
There are, however, many instances in which the participle in dus seems
to have tho import of the present. Perizonius is of opinion, therefore,
that it was originally a participle of the present tense passive, and ,ays
some being uniformly derived from the present participle
strcss on its
active, following even its irregularity in the only one which is irregular ;
thus, iens, euntis, eundus. Crombie advocates the same opinion, and
maintains, moreover, that this participle does not, by its own power, even
express futurity, or fche obligation either of necessity or duty. He does
not, however, deny that the participle in dus, when joined to the verh
sum, uniformly denote3 moral or physical obligation but he contends ;

that in such phraseologies there is no word expressive of futurity or od-


ligation, although the combination of the two words has, by usage, ac-
quired this signification, in the same manner as in English such expres
12

xus, generally passive, but sometimes active or common,


according to the nature of the verb.
IV. Active verbs have two participles ; a present parti-
ciple ending in ns ; as, amans, " loving;" and a future one
in rus ; as, amaturus, " about to love."
V. Passive verbs have, in like manner, two participles
one ending in tus, sus, or xus, called the perfect participle ;

as, amatus, " loved ;" visus, " seen ;" and another ending
in dus, called the future participle ; as, amandus, " to be

loved," or " deserving" or " requiring to be loved."


VI. Active intransitive verbs have sometimes two parti-
ciples ; as, sedens, " sitting ;" sessurus, " about to sit ;" fre-

quently three ;
as, carens, " wanting ;" cariturus, " about to
want ;" carendus, " to be wanted and occasionally four
;"
;

as, jurans, " swearing ;" juraturus, " about to swear ;" ju-
ratus, " having sworn ;" jurandus, " to be sworn."
VII. Neuter-passive verbs have generally three as, gau ;

dens, gavisus, and gavisurus, from gaudeo, " to rejoice." 1

VIII. Deponent verbs of an active signification have gen-


erally four participles ;
as, sequens, secuturus, secutus, se-
quendus, from sequor, ." to follow." Those of a neuter sig-
nification have generally but three ;
as, labcns, lapsus, lap-

surus, from labor, " to slip" or " glide."


IX. Common verbs have generally four participles ; as,
dignans, dignaturus, dignatus, dignandus, from dignor, " to
think worthy." Their perfect participle sometimes signi-
fies actively and sometimes passively as, adeptus victori-;

am, " having obtained a victory ;" or victoria adepta, " a vic-
tory being obtained."
X. All participles are adjectives ; those ending in ns are
of the third declension, the rest of the first and second.
sions as, " Is a man
to be punished for what he could not prevent 1" in
which there is no word expressive of duty, obligation, or futurity, aro
reckoned equivalent to " Ougkt a man to be punished ?"

2. Gcrunds and Supines.


I. Qerunds are participial nouns, of the neuter gender
and singular number, declinable like substantives, having
no vocative, being construed like substantives, and govern-
ing the case of their verb.
II. They are called gerunds because they signify the
thing, as it were, in gerendo (anciently written gerundo), that
is, as being carried on at the time. and along with the action
they convey an idea of the agent.
III. A Supine is a verbal substantive, of the singular
number and fourth declension, having the same signification
as the verb.
There are two supines one in um, called the first
IV. ;

supine, which governs the case of the verb, and is supposed


to be an accusative ; and another in u, called the second,
or latter supine, supposed to be an ablative, governing no
case, and generally having a passive signification.

CONJUGATION OF THE VERB.


I. There are in Latin four conjugations, or modes of form-
ing the tenses of the verb, distinguished by the infinitive

mood.
II. The First Conjugation ends in dre, and has a long
before re of the infinitive ;
as, amdre, " to love ;" credre, " to

create."
III. The Second Conjugation ends in ere, and has e
long before re of the infinitive ;
as, monere9 " to warn ;" do-
cere, " to teach."

IV. The Third Conjugation ends in ire. and has * *


e short

before re of the infinitive ; as, regere, " to rule ;" currere,


«* to run."
V. The Fourth Conjugation ends in ire, and has i long
before re of the infinitive ; as, audxre, " to hear ;" punire,
" to punish."

FORMATION OF THE TENSES.


I. There are four principal parts of the verb, from which
all the others are formed, namely
The Present Indicative,
The Present Infinitive,
The Perfect Indicative,
THE FlR8T SUPINE.

II. To Conjugate a verb is to give these several parts in


the order in which they have just been named. Thus,

Pres. Ind. Pres. Inf. Perf. Ind. Ist Supine


Ist Conj. Amo, Amare, Amavi, Amatum.
2d « Moneo, Monere, Monui, Monitum.
3d " Rego, Regere, Rexi, Rectum.
4th " AudTo, Audlre, Audivi, Auditum.

III. These principal parts, it will be perceived, from the


verbs just given, end, in the different conjugations, as fol-
l
lowi3 :

1. The true view of the case is undoubtedly the following, as given


by Struve (Grammatische Untersuchung, p. 134, scq.). The third con-
jugation was the oldest, and the parent source of the other three, which
are to be regarded, strictly speaking, as mere derivatives from it, and
have every appearance, in some of their parts, of being contracted verbs.
Thus,
Amao, contracted Amo. Amaimus, contracted Amamus.
Amais, M Amas. Amaitis, u Amatis.
Amait, U Amat. Amaunt, M Amant.
Moneo. 1 Moneimus, tt
Monemus.
Mondis, u Mones. 1 Moneitis, tt
Monetis.
Moneit, «(
Monet. j Moneunt, u Monent.
Audlo. Audilmus, u Audimus.
Audiis,
tt
Audis. Audiitis, u Auditis.
tt
Audiit, Audit. Audiunt.

The final and audit, where we would expect


syllables in amat, morict,
to see a long vowel resulting from the contraction, are shortened by the
mfluence of the t at the end of the words, and which controls, as it were,
the contraction, in order to pre^erve the analogy of the language

THE VERB. 137

Pres. Ind. Pres. Inf. Perf. Ind. Ist Supine.

Ist Conj. o, are, avi, atum.


2d " . eo, ere, Ul, Itum.
3d " o, ere, tum.
4th « 10, rre, Ivi, Itum.

IV. As, in order to form the other tenses, it is necessary


to know not merely the present of the indicative and in-
finitive, but also the perfect and supine, the following rules
must be carefully attended to.

1. Thefirst, second, an&fourth conjugations, with some


exceptions in the first, form the perfect and supine as
follows

lst Conj. in avi and atum ; as, amdvi, amdtum.


2d " in ui and Itura ;
" monui, monltum.
4th " in Ivi and Itum ;
" audivi, audxtum.

2. In the third conjugation the following laws hold good,


namely,
If a vowel precede ere in the infinitive, the perfect is

formed by adding i to the root, and the supine by


adding tum. But in the case of the supine the vowel
of the root becomes long ;
as,

acu-o, acu-i, acu-tum.


tribu-o, tribu-i, tribu-tum.

But if a consonant precede ere, the regular termination


of the perfect is in si ; as, carpo, carpsi ; demo, demsi%
&c.
The s, however, of this si undergoes various changes
(a) When the letters c, g, h, or qu precede, it unites
with them and forms x ; as, duco, duxi ; fingo, finxi
traho, traxi ; coquo, coxi.
(b) When the letter b precedes, it is changed into p;
as, scribo, scripsi.

(c) When d precedes, sometimes s, sometimes d is

dropped ;
as, defendo, defendi ; claudo. clausi.
12*

Digitized by Google
THE VEKB

(d) The leuer s is also dropped in many verbs whose


deviations in this respect are best learned from the
dictionary<5 as, lego, legi ; emo, emi, &ic<

The supine, when a consonant precedes ere, adds tum


to the root ; as, carp-o, carp-tum ; dic-o, dic-tum.

Some change of the preceding consonant, however,


occasionally takes place ;
as, for example,
(a) The letter b changes to a p; as, in scrib-o, scrip-

tum ; nubo, nuptum.


(b) The letters g, h, and qu change into c ; as, reg-o,

rec-tum; trah-o, trac-tum; coqu-o y coc-tum.


(c) Verbs in do make sum in place of dtum ; as, de-

fend-o, defen-sum.
(d) In some verbs the supine has x; as, fg-o,fix-um

in others, n of the root is thrown out ;


as, vinc-o,

vic-tum.

3 Two irregularities are especially common in the for-


mation of the perfect of the third conjugation ;
lst, the
reduplication of the first consonant with the vowel that
follows it, or with e; as, tundo, tutudi; cano, cecXni;
curro, cucurri ; parco, peperci ; and, 2d, many of them
are formed like the second conjugation, especially
those in lo and mo ; as, alo, aliii, alitum (or altum)
molo, moliii, moVltum ; gemo, gemiii, gemXtum.
V. The present, infinitive, perfect, and supine being now
known, the other tenses are formed from them as follows •

I. From the Present Indicative Active are formed.


1. The Present Subjunctive Active.
2. The Imperfect Indicative Active.
3. The First Future Active.
1. The Present Subjunctive Active is formed by chang-
ing o into em in the first conjugation ;
as, am-o, am-em ;
and o into am in the remaining conjugations ; mon-
as,

eo, mon-eam ; reg-o, reg-am ; aud-io, aud-iam.

Digitized by Google
THE VERB. 139
And from this present subjunctive active comes, in its
turn, the present subjunctive passive, by changing m
into r in all the conjugations ; as, am-er, mon-ear,
reg-ar, aud-iar.

2. The Imperfect Indicative Active is formed by changin^


o in the first conjugation into abam ; and, in the re-
maining conjugations, into ebam; as, am-dbam, mon-
ebam, reg-ebam, audi-ebam.
And from this is formed the same tense in the passive
by changing m into r; as, am-abar,mon-ebar, reg-ebar,
audi-ebar.
3 The First Future Active is formed by changing o in
the first conjugation into dbo, in the second into Ibo,
and in the third and fourth into am ; as, laud-dbo, mon-
ebo, reg-am, audi-am.

And from this is formed the first future passive by


adding r in the first and second conjugations, and by
changing m into r in the third and fourth ; as, am-abor,
mon-ebor, reg-ar, audi-ar.

II. From the Present Infinitive Active are formed,

1. Tke Imperative Active.


2. The Imperfect Subjunctive Active.
3. The Present Infnitive Passive.
1. The Imperative Active is formed by dropping re ; as,
amdre, ama ; monere, mone ; regere, rege ; audire, audi.
2. The Imperfect Subjunctive Active is formed by adding
m; as, amdre, amdrem ; monere, monerem; regere, re-
gerem ; audire, audirem.
And from this same tense is formed the imperfect sub-
junctive passive by changing m into r ; as, amdrer9
monerer, regerer, audirer.
3. The Present Infinitive Passive is formed by changing
e into i in the first, second, and fourth conjugations, and
ere into t in the third ; as, amdre, amdri ; monere, mo-
neri; audire, audiri; legere, legi.

III. From the Perfect Indicative Active are formed,

1. The Perfect Infinitive Active.


2. The Pluperfect Indicative.
3. The Perfect Subjunctive.
4. The Pluperfect Subjunctive.
5. The Second Future.
1 The Perfect Infinitive Active is formed by adding sse ;

as, amavi, amavisse ; monui, monuisse ; rexi, rexisse


audivi, audivisse,
2. The Pluperfect Indicative is formed by changing t

into eram ; as, amavi, amaveram ; monueram, rexeram,


audiveram.
3. The Perfect Subjunctive is formed by changing t into
ertm; as, amavi, amaverim; monui, monuerim ; rexi,

rexerim ; audivi, audiverim,


4. The Pluperfect Subjunctive is formed by adding ssem
as, amavi, amavissem ; monui, monuissem ; rexi, rexis-
sem ; audivi, audivissem.
5. The Second Future is formed by changing t into ero ;

as, amavi, amavero ; monui, monuero ; rexi, rexgro


audivi, audivero,

IV. From the Supine are formed,

1. The Future Participle Active.


2. The Perfect Participle Passive,
1. The Future Participle Active is formed by changing
um into ftrus ; as, amdtum, amaturus ; monitum, moni-
tvrus ; rectum, recturus ; audUum, auditurus.
2, The Perfect Participle Passive is formed by changing
um into us, a, um; as, amdtum, amdtus, -a, -um; moni-
tus, -a, -um ; rect-us, -a, -um ; audit-us, -a, -um.

VI. The Present Participle Active ends, as has already


been remarked, in the first conjugation in ans ; in the second
and third in ens ; in the fourth in iens ; as, amans, monens,
regens, audiens. Hence is derived the participle passive in

THE VERB SUM. 141

dus, by clianging ns into dus ; as, amans, amandus ; monens,


monendus ; regens, regendus ; audiens, audiendus.
Hence also is derived the Gerund ;
as, amandum, aman-
di, amando, &c.

XLVIII. THE VERB SUM.


I. Sum is called an Auxiliary verb, because its aid is
necessary to the complete conjugation of the passive voice.
II. It is also called a Substantive verb, because it is the

most general expression of existence.


III. Its conjugation is very irregular, and this irregularity
is owing to the circumstance of its being derived partly
from the Greek elfit (eimi), and partly from $1x0 (fuo).
IV. It is thus conjugated :

V. The compounds of sum, namely, adsum, absum, desum,


insum, intersum, obsum, prasum, subsum, supersum, are de-
clined like the simple verb, except that insum and subsum
want the perfect and the tenses formed from it.
VI. In prosum, another compound, a d is interposed when
a vowel follows pro ; as, prodes, proderam, prodesse, <fcc,

while possum, from potis and sum, is very irregular. Both


these verbs will be considered under the head of irregular
verbs, to which, in strictness, however, possum alone be-
longs.
VII. Instead of essem, the form forem (contracted from
fuerem) is also in use.

a substantive in philosophical language, and in the two

The principal agent, when following a verb of passive

a, ab, or abs ;* as, Laudatur ab his, culpatur ab illis ; " he is

praised by these, is blamed by those."

to employ it only before t and qu ; but even here a is often used for it.

IRREGULAR VERBS OF FIR8T CONJUOATION. 163

LIV. IRREGULAR VERBS OF THE FIRST CONJUGATION.


I. The irregularity of these verbs consists chiefly in their
taking ui instead of avi in the perfect, and itum instead of
dtum in the supine.
II. This peculiarity of ui and Uum makes them resemble
1
verbs of the second conjugation.
II f. The following are examples :

Crepo, crepare, crepui, crepitum, " to make a noise."


Cubo, cubare, cubui, cubitum, " to lie down."

Domo, domare, domui, domltum, "totame," "tosubdue"


oono, sonare, sonui, sonitum, "toresound."
Tono, tonare, tonui, tonitum, " to thunder."
Veto, vetare, vetui, vetitum, "toforbid."

IV. Sometimes, however, the t is thrown out from the


supine ; as in-the following :

Eneco, enecare, enecui, enectum, " to kiU."

Frico, fricare, fricui, frictum, " to rub."


Seco, secare, sccui, sectum, «« to cut."

V. The following display a difTerent irregularity, which


assimilates them in the perfect to the third conjugation :

Do, dare, dedi, datum, '* to give."

Sto, stare, st^ti, statum, "tostand."

VI. Circumdo, " to surround pessundo, " to niin ;"

satisdo, " to give security and venundo, " to sell," are

formed like do ; as, circumdare, circumdedi, circumd&tum


pessundiire, satisddre, venund&re. The other compounds
of do belong to the third conjugation ;
as, abdo, abdere, ab-

dtdi, abdltum ; addere, condire, reddere, &c.


I. In fact, however, both these verbs in ut, ttum, and all verbs of
the second, are merely so many branches of the third conjugation. They
appear to have had two stems, the primitive one of the third conjugation,
and a derivative one of the first er second. The irregularity consists in
the tenses formed from these two stcms becoming intermingled. Thus
we have in Ennius, sonunl and sonere ; in Livius Andronicus, nexebant
and even in Virgil, effcrvcre, &c. If we examine the subject in another
point of view, we will find a very close resemblance between cubui and
such a form as cubavi, which is only, in fact, cubaui and a lengthening
of cubui; and so of other instances.

164 IRREGULAR VERBS OF FIR8T CONJUGATION.

VII. In general, the compounds of sto have iti in the per-


fect and dtum in the supine, whence the participle future
is in dturus. In the verb prcesto the form prastitum is also
found, though less commonly.
VIII. T?he verb lavo, " to wash," blends the first and third
conjugations ;
as, l&vo, lavare, and lavere, Idvi, lautum, Zd-

tum, and lavdtum.


IX. Neco, " to kill," is regular ; but from it are formed
enico, enecdre, enecdvi, enecatum ; and enecui, enectum. The
participle is usually enectus.
X. The verb expllco^ when it signifies " to explain," has
explicdvi and explicdtum ; but, in the sense of " to unfold,"

it makes explicui, explicitum.

XI. Poto, "io drink," makes the supine potdtum and pd-
tum, whence potus, which is both active and passive
" having been drunk," and " having drunk."

1.Cnei and Pompei are vocatives from Cnetus Pompeius, where the
e t do not form a diphthong, but each word ends in ius, and, of
and
course, has i in the vocative. The ordinary pronunciation of Cneius and
Pompeius, therefore, as if the vowels in question formed a diphthong, is
thus shown to be erroneous, for the vocatives would then be Cneie and
Pompeie.

210 RBMARK8 ON THE CONJUGATIONS.

LXXIL REMARKS ON THE CONJUGATIONS.


L In the perfect and pluperfect a syncope takes effect,
as follows

1. In the first conjugation vi is dropped, and a circum-


flexed where an s or an r follows avi or ave ; as, am-
dsti, am&ssem, am&rim, am&ram, am&ro, &c, for ama-

visti, amavissem, amaverim, &c.

2. In the second and third conjugations a similar change


takes place with evi ; as, complessem for complevissem ;

deliram for deleveram ; decressem for decrevissem, <fcc.

3. But ovi is syncopated only in novi, novisse, and the


compounds of moveo, movi ; as, norunt for noverunt

ndrim for noverim; ndsse for novisse, commdssem for


commovissem, &c.
4. In the fourth conjugation ivi is often syncopated be-
fore s ; as, audisti for audivisti ; audlssem for audivis-
scm. There is also another form, which is produced
by throwing out the v only as, audii for audivi ; au-
;

dieram for audiveram, &c. This, however, is not so


common in the best prose writers as the others.

II. In the older and especially poetic remains of the


Latin language the infinitive passive was lengthened by
annexing the syllable er ; as, amarier for amari • legier for

legi, <fec.

III. The third person plural of the perfect indicative ac-


tive has two forms ; one ending in erunt and the other in
ere. This form in ere is more common in the later writers
and in those whose prose style has a poetic tinge ; as, for

exarnple, Tacitus and Curtius.


IV. The imperatives of dico, duco, facio, and fero % aro
usually written dic, duc, fac, fer; and in the compounds
educ, effer, calefac ; except in those compounds of facio
which change a into t ; as, confice, perftce.
V. For the termination of the second person in the pas-
sivc, in m, the form re was also uscd. In Cicero re is

REMARKS ON THE CONJUGATION8. 211

more common than ris in the imperfect and future indicative


and present and imperfect subjunctive. In the present in-
dicative, on the other hand, re for ris is comparatively rare.
VI. The old grammarians are at variance respecting the
quantity of i in rimus and ritis of the second future indica-
tive and perfect subjunctive active. Poets use these sylla-
bles both as long and short, but the preponderance of usage
appears to be in favour of i in both tenses. 1

VII. Some and several deponent verbs have a


active
form in bundus, which has the general force of a present
participle, but with the meaning commonly strengthened ;

as, errabundus, " wandering to and fro ;" gratulabundus,


" full of congratulation moribundus, " in the agonies of
death," &c.
VIII. The tenses formed by fui, fueram, fuero, and the
passive participle in us, express more emphatically the
completion of the action than those by sum, eram, ero.

Thus, pransus sum means that I have just dined ; but pran-
sus fui denotes that I dined some time ago.
IX. The verb sum and its tenses, joined with the parti-
ciple in rus, denote that a person has a mind to do, or is

upon of doing something ; differing thus from the


the point
future of the verb, which only expresses that an event will
take place. Hence arises a new conjugation callcd Peri-
2
phrastic. Thus,
Indicative.

Amaturus (a, um) sum, / am Amaturus (a, um) fui, / was,


about to love. or have been about to love.
Amaturus eram, I toas about Amaturus fueram, I had been

Amaturus ero, I shall be about Amaturus fuero (not in use).

Amaturus essem, / might be Amaturus fuissem, / might
about to love. have been about to love.

Infinitive.

Amaturum esse, to be about Amaturum fuisse, to have been


to love. about to love.

X. The participle in dus, usually called tbe future parti-


ciple passive, often has in the oblique cases a signification
like that of a gerund, whence it derives another grammati-
cal appellation for itself, namely, a gerundive;
as, for ex-

ample, tempus petendm pacis, " time of seeking peace ;" an-
imal idoneum ad portanda onera, " an animal fit for bearing
1
burdens."
XI. The participle in dus also implies obligation, pro-
priety, &c. as, amandus, " deserving of being loved ;" fa-
;

ciendum, " what ought to be done." It may be joined with


all the tenses and moods of sum, and hence arises a second

periphrastic conjugation ; as, amandus (a, um) sum, fui,


fur.ram, &c, " I am deserving of being loved," &c. ; hoc
faciendum est, " this ought to be done."
XII. xhe gerund in dum, when joined with some part
of the verb sum, rises in force above the neuter of the par-
ticiple in dus, and as that denotes obligation ("ought"), so
this implies necessity (" must"), and takes the dative of the
person ; as, miki scribendum est, " I must write ;" mihi scru
bendum " I was obliged to write ;" mihi scribendum
erat,

erit, " I shall be compelled to write," &c. 2

1. This gerundive meaning arises out of its primitive signification as


a present participlo passive. Compare note 1, page 133.
2. This meaning of " must," however, or, in other words, the idea of
necessity, arises in a great measure, if not entirely, from the substantive
verb with thc dative. Thus, scribendum est mihi literally means u thero
is writing for me," i. e., I have to write, I raust write, and so of the

EXERCISES ON THE GERUNDS AND SUPINES. 213

XIII. In what is called the future infinitive passive,


namely, amatum iri, monitum tVi, &c, the latter part, tW, is
in reality the infinitive of the passive impersonal itur,
" things tend." Hence audio eum manitum iri means, lit-
erally, " I hear that things tend to an advising him," i. e.,
that he is about to be advised. The supine therefore re-
mains unchanged, whatever be the gender or number of the
sub8tantive ;
as, audio feminam monitum iri ; audio nos mon-
-

itum iri.

LXXIII. EXERCISES ON THE GERUNDS AND SUPINES.


Preliminary Rules.
1. The gerund in dum, with the verb est, governs the
dative of the person, and denotes necessity ;
as, mihi
laudandum est, " I must praise ;" tibi studendum est,
" thou must study."
2. Gerunds are construed like nouns ; as, tempus studen-
di, " time of studying ;" aptus discendo, " fit for learn-
ing penna data sunt ad volandum, " wings were
given for flying."
3. Gerunds and supines govern also the same cases as
the verbs whence they are formed ; as, mihi laudan-
dum est hunc hominem, " I must praise this man ;" sal-
utatum amicos, " to salute friends."

LXXV. VERBS RECEIVING DIFFERENT NAMES, ACCORD-


ING TO THEIR VARIOUS NATURES OR TENDENCIES.
Frequentatives.

I. Frequentative .Verbs denote frequency of action, and


are formed from the latter supine of the primitive verb,
1
by
changing, in the first conjugation, dtu into tto ; and in the
other conjugations, u into o ; as, from clamdtu, clamtto ;

from pulsu, pulso; from dormUu, dormxto ; the primitives


being clamo, pello, and dormio.

Inceptives.

II. Inceptive verbs denote an action begun and going on.


They all end in sco, and are formed from the second per-
son singular present indicative of the primitive verb ; as,

caleo, u I am warm," second person cales, inceptive calesco,


" I begin to grow warm."
III. Inceptives are also derived from nouns and adjec-
tives, by changing the last vowel of the genitive into asco
or esco ; as, puerasco, ignesco, dulcesco, from puer, ignis 9
dulcis.

IV. Inceptive verbs are all intransitive, and of the third


conjugation. Those which are formed from nouns want
1. The
old system of formation, in the case of frequentatives, incep-
tives, is here retained, not so much from any accnracy it possesses
&c,
as from its convenience for the purposes of the young student. The
true furmation turns upon the doctrine of roots, but is best learned in a
more advanced stage of the pupiFs progress.

IRREGULAR VERBS. 211

the preterit and supine ; the others borrow thera from theL
primitives.
V. Most inceptives are formed from verbs of the second
conjugation. There are some verbs, however, ending in
sco, which are not inceptives, but actives as, disco, posco. ;

Desideratives.

VI. Desideratives express a desire of doing the act de-


noted by the primitive.
VII. They are formed from the latter supine of the prim
itive by shortening the final u and adding rio; as, cano, " to
sup," supine canatu, desiderative cmnaturio, "I desire to
sup." And again, edo, "to eat," supine esu, desiderative
esiirio, " I desire to eat."

DEFECTIVE VERBS. 237

LXXVIII. DEFECTIVE VERBS.


I Defective Verbs are such as are not used iu certain
tenses, numbers, and persons.
Three verbs, odi, coepi, and memlni, are only used in
II.

the preterit tenses, that is, in the perfect and the tenses
formed therefrom and hence they have been denominated
;

by grammarians " Preteritive verbs."


III. The verb coepi has the force not only of an aorisv
and a perfect, but also frequently that of a present. Thus,
it signifies not only " I began" and " I have begun," but
also " I begin."
IV. The verbs odi and memini, on the other hand, have
in the perfect regularly the sense of the present ;' as, odi,
" I hate ;" memini, " I remember ;"
and hence their pluper-
fect has the force of an imperfect, and their second future
that of a first future.

V. The parts of these three verbs that are in use are a*


follows

Odi, oderam, odiro, oderim, odissem, odisse. Participles,


osus and osurus.
»

Coepi, coeperam, coepero, coeperim, coepissem, coepisse.


Participles, coeptus, coepturus.
Memfni, memineram, meminero, meminerim, meminissem,
meminisse. Imperative, memento, mementote.

VI. Another verb, novi, is in like manner found only in


the perfect and the tenses formed from the perfect, but it

differs from the three verbs just mentioned in having a pres-


ent, nosco, also in use.
The present tense, nosco, however, signifies, "I
VII.
begin to know," " I learn," &c, whereas the perfect novt
has, like odi and memini, the force of a present, and signi-

1This present meaning, however, is deduced from that of the per-


.

fect. Thus, odi, " I have hated, and still continue to hate i. e., " I

hate." And again, memini, " I have remembered, and still continue to
remember;" i. e., "I remember."

fies "
know," thus expressing the actual knowledge which
I

is the result of past learning. Hence, as in the case of odi


and memini, its pluperfect has the force of an imperfect,
and its second future that of the first future.
VIII. The parts of novi that are in use are as follows :

Novi, noveram, novero, noverim, novissem, novisse, con-


tracted into ndram, ndrim, ndssem, ndsse. Participle,
ndtus.

IX. There is also a large number of defectives, which


;"
want certain tenses ; as, for example, dare, " to give
fdri, " to speak," with its compounds, adfdri, effdri,profdri9
&c.

Of dare, the passive forms dor and der are not found in
any extant classic authors.
The verb fdri, with its compounds, is in use only among
the poets. The parts of it that occur most frequently
are the third person of the present, fatur ; the imper-
ative/are; and the participle fatus. The ablative of
the gerund, fando, occurs in a passive sense even in
prose, in the expression fando audire, " to know by
hearsay."

X. Of verbs which want many of their chief parts, the

following most frequently occur. inquam, Aio, " I say ;"

" I forem, " I should be ;" ave and salve, " hail f
say ;"

redo, " tell thou" or " give me ;" quaso, " I beseech."
XI. Their parts remaining in use are as follows

1. Aio, "/ say.

1. This verb is only used between the words which are quoted, and
never stands at the beginning.
2. This verb, probably originating from fuerem, belongs to esse, and
is exactly similar in meaning to essem. The infinitive fore has the same
meaning as futurum (-am, -um, -os, -as -a) esse. t

3. Ave is in reality an imperative of aveo " to be well," and is only y

mentioned as defective because it has a different meaning, in some re-


spect, from the verb of which it forms a part.
4. Salve is the imperative of the obsolcte verb salveo, " to be in
sound
health.
,,
The infinitive is used with jubeo ; as, jubeo te salverc, " I bid
thee hail." Cicero uses the future for the imperative, salvebts a Ctce-
rone mco % " accept the salutation of my Cicero."
5. This contraction is used by the comic writers.

any case or having any proposition dependant upon it ; as,


Tu, quaso, crebro ad me scribe t " Do thou, I beseech, write
often unto me." The first person plural, quasumus, is used
in the same way.
XIII. Among defective verbs may also be mentioned age
and agite, " come," the former being singular and the latter
of the plural number. They are in strictness, however,
merely imperative forms of ago, and resemble in usage the
Greek &ye.
XIV. The following are also given by some as defectivc
verbs, namely, ausim, faorim, and faxo. They are in fact,
however, merely old forms of tenses. Ausim belongs to

audeo, " to dare," and appears to be contracted from ause~


rim ; while faxim and faxo are old forms for fecerim and
fecero, from the verb facio.

LXXXI. IMPERSONAL VERBS.


I. Impersonal Verbs are those which are used only in
the third person singular, and do not admit of a personal
subject or nominative.
II. Impersonal verbs, when translated into English, have
before them the neuter pronoun it, especially in the active
voice ;
as, dclectat, " it delights ;" dccet, " it becomes ;"

contingit, " it happens ;" cvenit, " it comes to pass ;" scri*

bliur, " it is written," &c.


III. They are conjugated as follows :

Tnfin. Pr. & Imp. Delectare. Decere. Contingere. Evenire.


Per. & Plu. Delectavisse. Decuisse.

IV. Most Latin verbs may be used impersonally in the


passive voice, especially neuter and intransitive verbs,
which otherwise have no passive.
V. As the passive voice of an active transitive verb may
be substituted for the active, so that of a neuter verb may
be used in the third person singular instead of the active
form, the personal subject of the latter, or nominative, be-
ing put in the ablative with the preposition a or ab ; as,
faveo tibi,
u I favour thee," or favetur tibi a me> " thou art

favoured by me."

Miseret, miseruit y or miseritum est, Tadet, taduit, or tasum est, " it

Oportety oportuit, " it behooves."

VII. No good reason, however, exists for distinguishing

these ten from other impersonal verbs.


VIII. Impersonal verbs, not being used in the imperative,
take the subjunctive in its stead ;
as, delectet, " let it de-
light.*' In the passive voice their perfect participles are
used only in the neuter.

LXXXII. ADVERBS.
I. The adverb qualifies the signification of a verb, an
adjective, a participle, or even another adverb ;
as, honeste

vixit, " he lived in a becoming manner ;" eximie pulcher,


" remarkably fair domus eeleriter extructa, " a housc

quickly built ;" satis diu 9 " sufficiently long."


II. Adverbs are divided into simple and derivative.
III. Simple adverbs are those not derived from any known
root in the language. Derivative adverbs, on the other
hand, are those which are so derived ; and to this head be-
long all adverbs formed by composition.
IV. The number of primitive adverbs is small in propor-
tion to that of the derivative. The derivative adverbs may
be roduced to difFerent classes. But both primitive and

LXXXVIII. 1NTERJECTIONS.
I. Interjections are sounds uttered under the influence
oi
strong emotion.
II. They are indeclinable, and stand in no
close con-
nexion with the rest of the sentence, for the dative and
ac-
cusative which are joined with some of them may 1
be eaaily
explained by an ellipsis.
III. The number
of interjections in any language is not
to be fixedthose which occur most frequently in Latin are
;

the following

1. Of Joy; as, Io; iu ; ha,he; hahahe ; evoe ; evax.


8. Of Grief as, Vce ; heu ; eheu; ohe ; au ; hei ; pro.

IV. Other parts of speech, as substantives, adjectives,


adverbs, verbs, and even complex phrases, such as oaths,
exclamations, invocations, &c, are, in particular connex-
ions, to be regarded as interjections. Such nouns and ad-
jectives are pax (be
malum, indignum, nefas, infan-
still !),

dum, miserum, miserabile, with an expression of astonish-


ment, grief, or horror. Among adverbs may be mentioned
n<B and profecto. Verbs used as interjections are qumso,
precor, oro, obsecro, amabo (all which may have te or vos)i
used in imploring or requesting. So also age ; agite ; cedo
sodes (for si audes) ; sis (for si vis) ; sultis (for si vultis) ;

agesis ; agedum; agitedum.

LXXXIX. BRIEF SKETCH OF THE LATIN SYNTAX. 1

I. Concord.
I. A verb agrees with its nominative in number and person ; as,

Ego legOy u I read." Nos docemus, u we teach. ,,


Tu scribis, " thou writest." Vos dicitis,
4<
ye say."
Puer currit, " the boy runs." Hostes fugiunt, " the enemy flee."

II. A collective noun, that is, a noun in the singular denoting uum-
ber or multitude, sometimes has a plural verb ;
as,

Pars pugnant, pars fugiunt, " part fight, part flee."

Leve vulgus vcniunt cuntque, " the fickle crowd come and go. M
1. Many of theue rules have already been given in the course of the preaent work,
and otbers the etudent has already discovered for himself in the proce«8 of transla-
tion, which latter ia the only true mode of acquiring them.

RULES OF SYNTAX. 26b

III. Two or more singular nominatives united by a connective con-


junction, and sometimes even without such union, have the verb in the
plural, if they denote living beings, and especially persons ; as,

Anionius et Octavianus vicerunt Brutum et Cassium.

IV. But if the nominatives denote things without life, and especially
abstract ideas, the singular or plural may be used ; unless one of the
nominatives should be in the plural, or what is asserted should only be
true of them jointly ; as, 1

Cum tempus necessitasque postulat decertandummanu } est, " When


the occasion and necessity demand, we must contend with the
hand."
Beneficium et gratia homines inter se conjungunt, " Kindness and
favour unite men among themselves."
Vita, mor8, dimtice, paupertas, omnes komines commovent, " Life,

death, riches, poverty, exercise an influence over all men."


• V. Verbs of the first and second persons must have for their nomina-
tives the pronouns of those persons ; all other nouns take verbs of the
third person. And if a noun of the third person stands before a verb of
the first or second person, it is because a pronoun of those persons is

undcrstood ; as,

Consul dixi, " 1 the consul have said it." Supply ego.
Miles Romanus fugisti, " Thou, a Roman soldier, hast fled." Sup
ply tu.

VI. When pronouns of diflferent persons come together, the verb agrees
with the pronoun of the first person, in preference to that of the second,
and with the pronoun of the second person in preference to that of the

third ;
as,

Si tu et Tullia valetis, ego et Cicero valemus, " If thou and Tullia


are well, I and Cicero are well."

VII. The infinitive mood, or part of a sentence, often supplies the


place of a nominative ; as,

Mentvri est turpe, " to lie is disgraceful."

Mquum est uthoc facias, " it is right that you do this."

VIII. One substantivo agrees with another in case, when both refer

to the same person or thing as, ;

Urbs Roma, " the city Rome." Nos consules, " we consuls."

1. Instances, though rare, occurof a singular verb fbllowing aeveral


nominatives,
of which one ia plural, provided it be not the last. When scveral nanies of persons
are preceded or rollowed by a singular verb, the verb agreeing with the nearest must
be underatood with the others ; ae, Gmgias, Thrasymachus, Protagoras, Prodicus,
Hippias in magno honore /uit. n Cic. —

266 HULES OF SYKTAX.

IX Adjectives, adjcctive pronoans, and participles agree with their


suhstantives in gender, number, and case ;
as,

Bonus pucr y
" a good boy." Bonos viros, ** good men."
Hona puclla, " a good girl." Bonat leges, " good laws."
Triste bellum, " a sad war. " Cadentia astra, " setting stars.
Mea soror, " my sister." Fugientes hostes, " fleeing foes.
Hoc negotium, " thls affair." Tua dona, " thy gifts."

X. An adjective, adjective pronoun, or participle belonging to two or


more aubstantives is put in the plural ; as,

Vir et puer territi lupo, **


A man and boy terrified by a wolf."

XI. When the substantives to which the adjective, pronoun, or parti-

ciple thus refers, are of diffcrent genders, but indicate persons, the ad-

jective, ccc., on being put in the plural, will be of the masculine rather

than the feminine gendcr ; as,

Pater et mater ejus mortui sunt, " His father and mother are dead."

XII. But if the substantives indicate things without Iife, and are at

samc time of difTcrent gcnders,


the the adjective becomes neuter. And
if some of the substantives refer to things with life, and others to inani-

mate objects, the adjective is either neuter, or takes the gender of the

thing or things with life ; as,

Labor voluptasque sunt dissimilia nalurd, **


Toil and pleasure are
unlike in nature."
Naves et captivi, qua ad Chium capla sunt, *'
The vessels and
captives that were taken at Chios."
Numtda atque signa militaria obscurati sunt, **
The Numidians
and their military standards were partially concealed."

XIII. An adjective, adjective pronoun, or participle often stands


alone, having a substantive understood, with which it agrees in gender
a«,

Mortulis, " a mortal," homo understood.


Superi, "the gods above," dii understood.
Dextra, **
the right hand," manus understood.
Sinistra, **
the left hand," manus understood.

Relative and Antecedent.


XIV. The relative Qui, quce, quod, agrees with its antcccdent in

gender, number, and person ;


as, 1

Femina qua, " thewoman who." Femina quce, " the women who."
Negotium quod, " the thing which." Negotia quce, «« the things which."

XV. If no nominative come between the relative and the verb, the
relative is the nominative to the verb ; but when a nominative inter-
venes, the relative is governed by the verb, or by some other word in
the sentence ;
as,

Ego qui scribo, " I who write."


Ego quem tu vocas, '« I whom thou callest."
Ego de quo tu dicis, " I of whom thou speakest."
XVI. If the relative has more than one antecedent, of different gen-

ders, the same rule applies as in the case of adjectives, &c. ; as,

Ninus et Semiramis, qui condiderunt Babylbna, " Ninus and Sem-


iramis who founded Babylon."
XVII. The relative often stands alone, a noun or pronoun being un-
derstood, frorn which it takes its gender and number ;
as,

Qui bene latuit, bene vixit, " He who has well escaped notice, has
lived well" (ille being understood).

XVIII. The antecedent is sometimes elegantly undcrstood, and the


nonn with which the relative agrees in case is ezpressed as, ;

Quas misisti literas accejn, "I have received the letters which
you sent," for accepi literas quas misisti.

The same case after a verb as before it. f

XIX. Any verb may have the same case after it as before it, when
both words refer to the same person or thing ; as,

Ego sum Romanusy " I am a Roman."


Tu vocaris proditor, " thou art called a traitor."

llla incedit regina, " she walks as a queen."

II. Government.
I. A noun which limits the meaning of another noun, denoting a dii-

ferent person or thing, is put in the genitive ;


as,

Amor Dei, " the love of God."


Lex naturce, ««the law of nature."
Arma Achillis, " the arms of Achilles."

II. A «ubstantive pronoun, which limits the meaning of a ncun, wm
like manner put in the genitive ; as,

III. When the limiting noun expresses some quality or circumstance


respecting the former, it has an adjective agreeing with it, and is put
either in the genitive or ablative ;
as,

Vir summce prudentut, "a man of the greatest wisdom."


or summa prudentia,
Puer proba inddlis, or " a boy of a good disposition."
proba indole,

IV. An adjective in the neuter gender, without a substantive, governs


the genitive ;
as, . . . . ^
Multum pecunue, " much money."
Minimum injurue, " very little injury."

tometimes, though rarely, the genitive ;
as,

Opus est pccunia, " there is need of money."


Usus est viribus, " there is need of strength."
Argcnii opus fuit, " there was need of silver."

Adjectives governing the Genitivc.

4 as,

Tuum cst hoc facere, " it is your duty to do this."


Nostrum est fortiter pugnare, " it is our duty to fight bravely."

1. Tbe rule may be given more generally as follows : " A noun liminng the mean*
ing of an adjective is put in the.dative, to denote the object or end to which the qual-
w
ity is directed.
2. Thts is, in strictness, a branch of rule VI. immediately preceding.
3. A noun is generally, thongh not very correctly, supposed to be understood, and
hence the limiting noun is put in the genitive.
4. Here again a noun is supposed to be undersiood, with which meum, &c, agree
This may be a convenient ellipsis, but is by no m» ans an accurate view of the sub-
ject. The adjective pronouns meum, &c, agree, in fact, with the latter part of ihe
claa«ie as a species of nominative. Thus, in the examplce above given, meum agrees
with hoc facere, and nostrum wlth fortiter pugnare.
