Chapter 2: Quintus Flaccum iuuat

Nouns & adjs. 2nd declension; nom. & acc. sing. & plural; gender: masc., fem. and neuter; agreement of adjs.; verbs: 3rd plural all conjugations


Gallo-Roman harvesters from Trier, from wikipedia.org

Latin is an "inflected" language, i.e. meaning is conveyed by endings and not by place in the sentence. In nouns and adjective, nouns can be any gender (masculine, feminine, neuter), and so can adjectives. Any adjective must agree in case, gender, and number. In this chapter you learn a new declension and plurals.

In this exercise, practice using nouns in both cases and both declensions, singular and plural, masculine and feminine.

In this exercise, make nouns and adjectives agree.

In this exercise, practice formation of verbs, singular and plural, all four conjugations.
