When you finish the quiz copy into your notebooks the present conjugation of the verb to go: eo, ire

eo  I go                                     imus  we go
is you singular go                     itis  you plural go
it  s/he goes                              eunt  they go

To get the imperative forms, one takes of the -re of the infinitive (ire). So, the command forms are
 i!   and ite!

Now watch this shorts clip from Monte Python's Life of Brian "Romans Go Home" in which the command form of eo, ire is critical.

Guided instruction. Now for our story....

Guided Instruction. 11 Chapter prereading questions (10 minutes)

Open your textbooks to pages 78-79 and to spend two minutes looking at the picture, reading the "In This Chapter" box and the title of the story, and looking very quickly at the vocabulary list.

In this chapter: Davus takes charge. The slave Geta runs away. We are introduced to the "genitive" case for nouns (possessive). For example: the anger OF Davus (ira Davi); the dark of night (tenebra noctis); the friend of Cornelia (amica Corneliae). The gentive case often looks just like the nominative plural. So, you have to hold your horses and consider whether a plural subject or a singular possessive noun makes more sense. The chapter concludes with the story of the founding of Rome.

Now answer the following questions in your notebooks:

a. Who is the slave in green, and where did we see him last?

b. What is the slave in the picture at the top doing?

c. Look back at the first lines of the stories for Chapters 8 and 9. What phrases do you see in which one noun goes with another noun or nouns?
Chapter 8. "mater Marci et Corneliae
Chapter 9: Cornelia per agros ad villam anicAE currit.

d. How do you translate these phrases? Hint:  nouns are possessives or genitives.

e. What phrase can you find in the second line of the story for Chapter 11 in which one noun goes with another?  Davus est......."

f. From the information given in the "In This Chapter" box, what do you think the name of the case of the second or second and third words in these phrases is?

g. How do you translate a word in this case, and what does the case show?  Look at page 80!
