|
||||
|
||||
## Grammar introduced in Cap. XXIV
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Plūsquamperfectum āctīvum** (pluperfect active) — "had X-ed". Stem = perfect stem + **-erā-** + personal endings:
|
||||
|
||||
| | sg | pl |
|
||||
|-------|---------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| 1 | -eram | -erāmus |
|
||||
| 2 | -erās | -erātis |
|
||||
| 3 | -erat | -erant |
|
||||
|
||||
Example (recitāre, perf. *recitāv-*): *recitāveram, recitāverās, recitāverat, recitāverāmus, recitāverātis, recitāverant.* Same endings on every verb regardless of conjugation — what differs is only the perfect stem.
|
||||
|
||||
From the chapter: *Mārcus ūmidus erat quod per imbrem ambulāverat.* "Heri magister mē laudāvit, quia bonus discipulus **fueram**: bene **recitāveram** et **scrīpseram**, magistrō **pārueram**, nec in lūdō **dormīveram**."
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Plūsquamperfectum passīvum** (pluperfect passive) — perfect participle + *eram, erās, erat...*:
|
||||
*verberātus eram, verberāta erās, verberātum erat; verberātī erāmus, verberātae erātis, verberāta erant.*
|
||||
From the chapter: *"Pater mē verberāvit, etsī iam ā magistrō verberātus eram."* The participle agrees with subject in gender/number.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Perfect of irregular & deponent verbs** (the chapter's PENSVM A list): *lavāre lāvisse lautum; vidēre vīdisse vīsum; mordēre momordisse morsum; dare dedisse datum; reprehendere -disse -ēnsum; frangere frēgisse frāctum; cognōscere -ōvisse -itum; nōscere nōvisse; lūdere lūsisse; cadere cecidisse; īre iisse; cupere cupīvisse; velle voluisse; patī passum esse; loquī locūtum esse; fatērī fassum esse.*
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Deponent imperative sg in -re** (already in c25 grammar but used heavily here): *intuēre!* (look!), *cōnsōlāre mē!* (console me!), *loquere!* (speak!), *laetāre!* (rejoice!).
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Comparison with abl. of comparison** (recap): *melior frātre meō* = *melior quam frāter meus*; *stultior vōbīs* = *stultior quam vōs*.
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Indirect statement (acc. + inf.) with perfect infinitive**: *Mārcum mentītum esse*, *eās litterās ā Sextō scrīptās esse*, *Mārcum bonum discipulum fuisse*. The student already knows this construction; here perfect infinitives appear regularly.
|
||||
|
||||
## Common error patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- **Confusing perfect with pluperfect**: *recitāvit* (he recited) vs. *recitāverat* (he had recited). Drill: which tense did the magister use *yesterday* vs. which describes what happened *before* yesterday?
|
||||
- **Pluperfect endings vs. imperfect**: *amābat* (impf, was loving) vs. *amāverat* (plupf, had loved). The plupf inserts perfect stem + *-erā-*.
|
||||
- **Pluperfect passive agreement**: *puerī verberātī erant* (m. pl.), not *verberātum erant*. The participle is an adjective.
|
||||
- **Deponent imperative**: student says *mīrā!* — wrong; *mīrāre!* (sg) / *mīrāminī!* (pl). They look passive but mean active.
|
||||
- **Deponent perfect form**: *patī passus est*, not *patuit*. *Loquī locūtus est*, not *loquit*. The participle is the perfect.
|
||||
- **Wrong perfect stem**: *cadō → cecidī* (reduplicated), not *cadī*. *Frangō → frēgī* (vowel change), not *frangī*. *Mordeō → momordī*, not *mordī*.
|
||||
- ***nōscere nōvisse***: perfect *nōvī* idiomatically means "I know" (present sense), plupf *nōveram* means "I knew".
|
||||
- ***os ossis*** vs. ***ōs ōris***: short *o* = bone; long *ō* = mouth. Easy confusion.
|
||||
- **Abl. of comparison without *quam***: *melior frātre meō* is correct; *melior quam frātre meō* is wrong (mixing constructions).
|
||||
|
||||
## Exercise menu
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Conjugate plupf active** (single verb, all 6 forms): "Give pluperfect of *scrībere*." → *scrīpseram, scrīpserās, scrīpserat, scrīpserāmus, scrīpserātis, scrīpserant.* Start here — pure paradigm drill.
|
||||
2. **PENSVM A single-blank** (one verb in plupf): "Mārcus ūmidus erat quod per imbrem ambul___." → *ambulāverat.*
|
||||
3. **Tense ID**: give a form, ask perf or plupf: *audīverat*? → plupf. *audīvit*? → perf.
|
||||
4. **Plupf passive agreement**: "Aemilia ___ erat (laudāre)." → *laudāta erat.* "Pueri ___ erant (verberāre)." → *verberātī erant.*
|
||||
5. **Deponent imperative**: "Tell Quīntus to console you." → *cōnsōlāre mē!* "Tell the boys to look at the feet." → *intuēminī pedēs!*
|
||||
6. **Perfect-stem recall** (vocab): "Perfect of *cadere*?" → *cecidisse / cecidit.* "Perfect of *frangere*?" → *frēgisse / frēgit.* "Perfect of *cognōscere*?" → *cognōvisse / cognōvit.*
|
||||
7. **PENSVM C Q&A**: "Cūr Mārcus rediēns cruentus erat?" → *Mārcus cruentus erat quod humī iacuerat et ā Sextō pulsātus erat.* (good plupf passive practice)
|
||||
8. **Spot the error**: "Mārcus iam verberātum erat ā magistrō." → *verberātus erat* (subj. is m. sg.).
|
||||
9. **Indirect statement with perfect infinitive**: "Syra says that Mārcus lied." → *Syra dīcit Mārcum mentītum esse.*
|
||||
10. **Translate (compound past)**: "The boys had played in the road and Sextus had struck Marcus." → *Puerī in viā lūserant et Sextus Mārcum pulsāverat.*
