-----------------------------------------------------------------------3rd Conjugation Verbs
24 points
You will need to conjugate and translate TWO 3rd conjugation
verbs. 3rd Conjugation: The infinitives of 3rd conjugation verbs in in -
ere. Conjugating a 3rd conjugation verb is a little different than what
you do for 1st and 2nd conjugation verbs. Instead of dropping -re, you
now drop -ere. The endings are also slightly different. They are:
-o: I _______
-is: you _______
-it: he/she/it _____
-imus: we _______
-itis: you all ______
-unt: they ______
Ex: cano, canere (to sing)
Conjugation
Translation

canis

Try one on your own:

Nominative, Accusative and Ablative Endings 15 pts.
Fill in each chart with the Nominative, Accusative and Ablative
endings. Also know the function of nouns in that case and how you
translate them:

and are translated before you translate your verb. The endings
are:
1st Declension
2nd Declension

1st Declension
2nd Declension

-am
-um

-os
Ablative Case
Nouns in the Ablative case are the objects of the preposition. If

Translation Section
30 points
You will need to translate 7 sentences from Latin to English and 3
sentences from English to Latin. Sentences will consist mainly of
vocabulary from Chapters 4-5 and will be worth 3 points each. Partial
credit will be given for the correct vocabulary words, so try your best
not to leave anything blank!
Ex: Colonus iratus pueris advenit.
__The angry farmer arrives with the children__
Why? Iratus (angry) has the same ending as colonus (farmer), so it has
to describe that noun and translate as: The angry farmer. The noun is
in the Nominative case, so I translated it before my verb advenit
(arrives). Pueris (children) has an Ablative plural ending, so it
translates as “by/with or from” the children. “With the children” sounds
best, so that’s how I translated it.
Multi amici procedunt
Many friends go forward
Filiae hortum magnum curant
The daughters care for the great garden
Ubi dormis in ludo diu, magistra clamat!
When you sleep in school for a long time, the teacher shouts!
Now for some English to Latin…. (BE CAREFUL WITH THE CASE
ENDINGS AND VERB ENDINGS!!!)
Ex: We dine by the school.
WE dine = verb ending of –mus
__ludo cenamus__
If you translate a noun as “by”, you put the noun in the Ablative case
Try some on your own!
Y’all put down the bad food.
Malum cibum ponitis
They praise the good son.
Filium bonum laudant
I rise slowly.
Surgo lente
