  • Notice that the singular form of the imperative is the same as the present stem. 
  • The present stem = infinitive MINUS -re.
  • The plural imperative adds a -te to the singular imperative (present stem).
  • BUT! look at the 3rd conjugation plurals. The short-e has become a short -i!
1. ambula-re - ambula! ambulate! walk!
1. cura-re - cura!  curate! take care of, watch out for!
2. sede-re - sede! sedete! sit (long -e)

December 17, Tuesday, Ecce Romani X Departure

Essential Questions
What are the four conjugations of Latin  verbs?  How do we recognize what to what conjugation (group, family) a verb belongs? How do we find the verb stem using the infinitive (the -are, ēre, ĕre and ire forms of a verb)? The infinitve form is translated “to verb.” In previous chapters you have seen examples of verbs from all conjugations and learned that in the present tense the personal endings are:
-o (I)                               -mus (we)
-s (you singular)             -tis (you plural)
-t  (he, she it)                   -nt

In this chapter you will learn how to determine the conjugation to which a verb belongs. Why is this important? Because verbs in the same conjugation follow the same rules.


Bellwork (8-10 minutes)
Words of the day - words about VERBS

inflect (verb) early 15c., "to bend inward," from Latin inflectere "to bend in, bow, curve," figuratively, "to change, alter, influence," from in- "in" + flectere "to bend" (see flexible). Grammatical sense "to vary by change of form" (especially at the end of a word).

conjugate (verb): 1520s, in the grammatical sense, "inflect (a verb) through all its various forms," from Latin coniugare "to yoke together," from com "with, together” iugare "to join," from iugum "yoke" " This use has its origin in the fact that in inflected languages, a verb is conjugated by conjoining certain ENDINGS with the root" [Century Dictionary].

conjugation (noun): "The inflection of a verb in all its different forms; a class of verbs similarly conjugated," from Latin coniugatio noun, literally "a combining, connecting."  Latin verb: coniugare "to join together," Meaning "act of uniting or combining" is from c. 1600.

We don't use the word "conjugate" much today unless we are talking about languages and verbs. But here is a related word we do use:

conjugal (adj) "pertaining to marriage, nuptial," also "pertaining to the relationship of husband and wife;” related to coniugare "to join together," from assimilated form of com "with, together" +  iugare "to join," from iugum "yoke."

con (from the Latin cum) + iugum (yoke): yoked with, yoked together

Quotation of the day

"Religion for the Romans was a bargaining process: if a man did his duty, he had a right to expect the god to do his. Do ut des – I give so that you may give – was the usual sacrificial prayer. Romans were always in spirit an agricultural people, thinking in terms of cause and effect, of reaping what one sows. The rhythms of their worship followed the rhythms of the seasons. Many Roman gods were not found far away on a mountaintop, but worked beside the Romans in field and home.

Latin I. First Period
We will go to the media center with the article by Rose Williams. This time is for you to use to gather images for the gods (ancient ones please) and build your answers either in the Word Document or in the Powerpoint Template (Google Classroom)
