  3. What is 3rd Declension? • Any noun that ends with “is” on the genitive singular is 3rd declension. • Largest declension • Has all three genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter • You need to learn the gender with each noun • Nominative singular that ends in “tor” is usually masculine • Nominative singular that ends in “trix” is usually feminine • Most of the time the gender follow the definition of the word but not always • Pater, patris father is masculine • Virtus, virtutis courage, manhood is feminine

  4. 3rd declension Nominative singular • The nominative singular for all 3rd declensions nouns does not have an assigned ending. It can be anything and will be listed in the charts as “varies”. This just means use the first form of the vocabulary listing for the nominative singular. • Rex, regism. King rex is the nominative singular • Urbs, urbisf. City urbsis the nominative singular

  5. 3rd Declension base • For all third declension nouns, find the base to build your declension forms by removing the “is” from the genitive singular. Sometimes there is a big change between the nominative singular and the base.

  6. Practice • 1. Look at the vocabulary list for nouns for the Trojan War. Based on the genitive singular, write the number of the declension beside each one in your vocabulary list. • 2. For all the third declension nouns, remove the “is” and write down the base in parentheses beside the word.
