Dear Elementary Latinists,
For Monday, October 12, please do the following.
READING
Shelmerdine, Chapters 8 and 9, on sentence patterns and verbs of the third and fourth conjugations:
- Sentence Pattern: Factitive (#47, pp. 71–2)
- Third and Fourth Conjugations: Imperfect Active Indicative (#48, p. 77)
- Third and Fourth Conjugations: Future Active Indicative (#49, pp. 77—8)
VOCABULARY
Due by 9:00 AM (EST) by email.
Write a one-paragraph short story (6–8 sentences) in which you feature English derivatives from 75% of the Chapter 8 vocabulary (p. 75).
As before, use the English words naturally in your prose, but put the Latin words from which they are derived in parentheses immediately afterward.
When listing the Latin words, use the first form of a noun, adjective, or pronoun, and the infinitive form of a verb. ALSO: If your derivative contains a Latin preposition, include it in your parenthetical citation.
IMPORTANT: Please follow the formatting requirements for written work.
Please let me know if you have questions.
