Chapter 44, Drill b: Practice using conditions, si-clause.

In this exercise, the verb to be supplied is in the si clause in each sentence. NB: many of these are essentially the same conditional sentences as in Drill a, except that here you supply the if clause verb instead of the main clause verb, and the kind of condition has changed. Provide the correct Latin form of the verb given in English in parentheses, depending on the type of condition (not the same as in the same sentence in Drill a) and remembering Latin time precision:

Example:
si ille (sings), nos nos avertemus. Answer: cantaverit: although English idiom uses present tense, loosely, Latin idiom is more precise. He will sing (future) but before we then turn aside, so future perfect.

1. si imber (had arrived), viatores reversi essent.
2. si imber (threatens [use immineo]), omnes domum revertuntur.
3. ille, si pecunia (he should be lacking), non nos comitari possit.
4. si mane (they had set out), eodem die advenissent.
5. si quis pecunia (were lacking), ego adiuvarem.
6. si Maecenas iter Brundisium non (makes), Quintus eum non comitabitur.
7. si quo amici (were lacking), Octavianus semper adiuvaret.
8. si aes (is collected [use exigo, exigere, exegi, exactum]), Quintus lintrem conscendere poterit.
9. si culices somnos (were turning aside), Quintus non laetus esset.
10. si nauta absentem amicam totam noctem (sings [about; use canto, cantare]), Quintus non bene dormiet.
11. Quintus, si non bene (should sleep well), cras fessus sit.
12. illi nautae, si multa vappa proluti non (are), melius cantant.
13. hic nauta, si multa vappa prolutus non (were), melius cantaret.
14. ille viator, si (had perceived) lintrem non procedere, caput nautae fuste doluisset.
15. nauta piger, si mulam saxo (had tied [religo -are -avi]), dormire potuisset.
16. Quintus, si Plotio et Vario Vergilioque (should meet), laetus sit.
17. nonne Antonius, si in Aegypto non (were lingering [cesso -are]), vinceret?
18. si iter longum (were), viatores fessi fierent.
19. Octavianus, si totum populum Italiae sibi (is uniting/conciliating [concilio -are], auctoritatem suam paulatim auget.
20. Marce, si tantum vini (you drink), philosophiam non cognosces.
21. si culices ranaeque somnos non (are turning aside), Quintus bene dormit.
22. si lintrem (we had boarded), iter multo celerius fecissemus.
23. si mula lintrem (should pull/drag), viatores dormire possint.
24. si mula lintrem (pulls), viatores dormire poterunt.
25. si mula pastum (is sent), linter non procedet.
