Write out, fill in the gaps and translate the examples:
Nouns change their endings in _____ whereas in ______ word order is more important. If a noun is doing a verb we describe it as the subject of the sentence and it goes into the __________ case. Singular nouns in the first group (1st declension) end in -a when they are the subject. Singular masculine nouns in the 2nd group (2nd declension) end in -__. When a noun is a victim of the verb it becomes the object of the verb and goes into the __________ case. In Latin, single nouns in this case always have an -m on the end.
e.g. puella lunam spectat.
servus coquum exspectat.
____________ are small words that tell us where an action is happening (in/on/_____/____ etc). These small words are followed by nouns and have two different effects over nouns in Latin. They will make nouns go into either the _________ or the ________ case. The singular ablative ending for group one nouns is the same as the __________ ending. The ablative ending for singular nouns in the second group is -_.
e.g. dominus in villa clamat.
coquus cenam parat in culina.
equus per viam festinat.
Learn the vocabulary on the right for a test next week. Careful as it is not exactly the same as the vocab on the sheet. I will be collecting books so make sure they are up to date (envelope at back etc.)
P.S. The miles Romanus est Marcus Antonius (qui Cleopatram amavit).
