Chapter 10, Drill c: Practice making
adjectives agree with nouns (case, gender, number)
Each Latin noun is accompanied by a Latin
adjective in parentheses, in the masculine nominative singular
(if it exists) form. Make that adjective agree with the noun
in case, gender, and number; if there are several possibilities,
try any one. You now have nominative, genitive, accusative, ablative,
and vocative cases, and all three genders, to choose from.
Example:
saxi (magnus) Answer: magni: genitive singular, not nominative
plural. Since saxum is neuter, the masculine -i nominative
plural ending is not an option.
