Dative with Adjectives • Already encountered dative as the indirect object. • Certain adjectives (esp. those followed in English by “to/toward” or “for”) are followed by a noun in the dative connoting to/toward/for whom/what the quality of the adjective applies. • Cf. Wheelock, p. 246.
Dative with Special Verbs • Certain verbs (i.e. those connoting an attitude toward someone/something) are followed by a dative rather than an accusative direct object; generally verbs that in English are followed by to/toward/for. • Intransitive verbs. • Caution! Many such verbs are transitive in English. • Cf. Wheelock, pp. 246-7.
Dative with Compound Verbs • Compound verbs with the prefixes: ad, ante, con, in, inter, ob, post, prae, pro, sub, super are followed by a dative rather than the accusative direct object. • Only applies when the addition of the prefix significantly alters the meaning of the word without the prefix attached. • If the simple verb (i.e. minus the prefix) is ordinarily transitive, then compounds of that verb often take accusative direct object and dative indirect object. • Cf. Wheelock, p. 247-8.
Jussive Noun Clauses • An indirect command. • Direct command = “Do this” (Imperative); “Let them do this” (Jussive Subjunctive). • Indirect command = “He urges you to do this.” • Introduced by “ut” or “ne” followed by a verb in the subjunctive. • Look similar to a purpose clause; usually identified by the presence of a main verb connoting ordering, commanding, urging, persuading etc. • Note: Some such verbs are special verbs which take the dative of the person ordered, persuaded etc. • Cf. Wheelock, p. 253. • Hortor (I urge), Impero (I command + dat), Moneo (I advise), Oro (I beg), Persuadeo (I persuade + dat), Peto (I beg + ab + abl.), Quaero (I request + ab + abl.), Rogo (I ask); NOTE: Iubeo is an exception; cf. Wheelock, p. 254.
Fio, Fieri, Factus sum • To occur, happen, become; be done, be made. • The perfect system is the same as perfect, passive system of facio, facere, feci, factus sum and means the same thing. • Memorize the paradigm for the present system (Wheelock, p. 255).
