Bellwork:
Give all the forms for the phrase: animal ferox (a ferocious animal). Animal is neuter. Use handout 02
Latin is a combination of knowing and the ability to reason. You need to know things like what conjugation or declension a verb belongs to ("the rules"). Then you have to be able to reason your way though all possible options. You never just know something in a static way.
Your mind has to generate all possibilities and then weigh them one by one. You must know your choices; but then you have to reason your way through these choices.
Being uncertain is a normal part of this process. Accepting ambiguity is also part of this process. These are valuable intellectual and life skills.
We don't tend to love ambiguity the way the Romans did. Or feel thrilled by the eventual resolution of ambiguity as they did, either. Latin is kind of like chess or poker. You have to consider all possibilities before you make your move. That is the beauty of Latin. It makes you think.
Layers of possibilities accumulate the more you know Latin. 3rd declension adjectives are a good illustration of this.
Go here (Quizlet), or here Google Classroom, or here blog page to find the declension and gender of nouns used in Exercises b-d.
Do Exercise 16d with a partner. We will do the first two together.
Direct and guided instruction. Noun/adjective agreement
Adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in gender, case and number. The adjective and the noun it modifies may belong to different declension and therefore end with different letters.
Direct instruction. Review handout 02
What the heck is an i-stem noun or adjective? Get out your highlighter and take out handout 02.
I-stems are a subset of third declension nouns. But there are a lot of them. Parisyllabic means that the nominative and the genitive forms of a third declension noun have the same number of syllables.
DO NOT try to memorize all this. Just remember that some 3rd declension masculine or feminine nouns will have and -ium in the genitive plural. And that some neuter nouns will have, in addition, an -ia in the nominative and accusative plural.
Sigh. The vast majority of 3rd declension adjectives behave like -i-stem 3rd declension nouns. Learn to expect and recognize this.
Guided and collaborative: We will do exercise 16b together. Then in groups do 16c.
Listen again to the vocabulary and story.
