  14. Adjectives! • An adjective is a word used to describe a noun. • We say that an adjective modifies its noun. the good dog the little dog the smart dog

  15. Adjectives • The vocabulary lists gives you the 3 nominative forms of Latin adjectives: masculine, feminine, and neuter. • You must learn all 3 of these. • parvus, parva, parvum small • magnus, magna, magnum great, large

  16. Adjectives • In Latin, an adjective can come before or after its noun. • Let’s look at “the large family”: familia magna magnafamilia

  17. G-N-C! • In Latin, an adjective must agree with its noun in GENDER, NUMBER, and CASE • The noun is the boss! Familiaestmagna. The family is large. Magnaesilvaesuntbonae. Large forests are good.

  18. Familiaest magna.

  19. Puellaestparva. Puellaesunt parvae.

  33. Finding Direct Objects • A direct object follows an ACTION verb (not a linking verb like “is” and “are”). • The direct object is the noun that receives the action of the verb. • The girl holds the cat. • (Ask: what does the girl hold?) • Direct object: CAT • The boy feeds the dog. • (Ask: what does the boy feed?) • Direct object: DOG

  34. Finding Direct Objects • The choir sang a song. • Subject----choir • Direct object----song • The girls like the forest. • Subject----girls • Direct object----forest

  35. Take this REALLY HARD Quiz! • Which sentence is correct English? • I saw him at Pier Park. • I saw he at Pier Park.

  36. Take this REALLY HARD Quiz! • Which sentence is correct English? • Adele is a great singer. I really like listening to she. • Adele is a great singer. I really like listening to her.

  37. What just happened here? • You proved that you already KNOW how cases work…in English! • Romans also had correct cases for direct objects…check it out…

  38. The Accusative Case The accusative case is used to indicate the direct object of a sentence. Accusative endings: –am for singular –as for plural. Case Singular Plural Nominative a ae Genitive ae arum Dative ae is Accusative am as Ablative a is

  39. Now APPLY Your Grammar Rules… • The girls like the forest. • Girls=Subject • Subjects=Nominative Case • Girls=Nominative Case • puellae Case Sg. Pl. Nom a ae Gen ae arum Datae is Acc am as Abla is

  40. Now APPLY the Accusative Here… • The girls like the forest. • Forest=Direct Object • Direct Objects=Accusative Case • Forest=Accusative Case • silvam Case Sg. Pl. Nom a ae Gen ae arum Datae is Acc am as Abla is

  41. Puellaesilvamamant. The girls like the forest.

  42. Just like YOU wouldn’t say, “I really like he…” The Romans wouldn’t say, “Puellaesilvaamant” but rather, “Puellaesilvamamant.”

  43. Practicing Accusative Direct Objects Case Sg. Pl. Nom a ae Gen ae arum Datae is Acc am as Abla is • The girls like water. • Puellaeaqu__ amant. • The families carry water. • Familiaeaqu__ portant. • The girls like the roads. • Puellae vi__ amant. • The families carry the girls. • Familiaepuell__ portant. am am as as

  44. What if we took 3 words and just scrambled their order without changing their endings? Puellaesilvamamant. Puellaeamantsilvam. Silvampuellaeamant. Amantpuellaesilvam. Amantsilvampuellae. ALL THESE SENTENCES MEAN “THE GIRLS LIKE THE FOREST.”  In Latin, WORD ENDINGS are more important than WORD ORDER. Sometimes word order does follow certain rules, esp. in longer sentences. Remember: Endings are everything!!!

  45. Translate the following sentences. “Cornelia” and “Iulia” are girls’ names. Cornelia et Iulia familiamamant. Cornelia et Iulia parvafamiliamamant. Cornelia et Iulia parvamfamiliamamant. Cornelia et Iulia aquamportant. Cornelia et Iulia aquambonamportant.

  46. sg. -a nominative sg. • Tell the case, number, and ending for the red words in these sentences: • The girl is my friend. • Shelia is a girl. • The girls went to the mall. • I saw the girls at the mall. -a nominative pl. -ae nominative -as pl. accusative Case Sg. Pl. Nom (subject) a ae Gen ae arum Datae is Acc (direct obj.) am as Abla is
