|
||||
|
||||
One item at a time. Be terse.
|
||||
|
||||
Topic argument supported (e.g. `/llpsi-c7 dative`, `/llpsi-c7 hic`, `/llpsi-c7 sē`, `/llpsi-c7 verbs`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Vocabulary (new in Cap. VII)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
**Adjectives**: *fōrmōsus -a -um* (beautiful, = *pulcher*); *plēnus -a -um* + gen. (full of, opposite *vacuus*).
|
||||
|
||||
**Verbs** (3sg/3pl):

|
||||

|
||||
- *lacrimat / lacrimant* (weeps, 1st)
|
||||
- *aperit / aperiunt* (opens, 4th) ↔ *claudit / claudunt* (closes, 3rd)
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
- *exit / exeunt* (goes out, *ex-īre*)
|
||||
- *es! este!* (imperative of *esse*)
|
||||
|
||||
**Pronouns / demonstratives** (introductory): *hic* (m.), *haec* (f.), *hoc* (n.) — "this here" (full paradigm comes in Cap. VIII; here only nom. sg.). *sē* (himself/herself/themselves, acc. reflexive).
|
||||
|
||||
**Particles**: *immō* (on the contrary, nay rather); *nōnne?* (asks expecting yes); *et...et* (both...and); *neque...neque* (neither...nor); *sōlum* (= *tantum*, only); *illīc* (there); *ē* (= *ex* before consonants); *eī* (dat. sg. of *is/ea/id*); *iīs* (dat. pl.).
|
||||
|
||||
## Grammar introduced in Cap. VII
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Dative case** — full introduction (sg + pl, all three genders):
|
||||
|
||||
| | 1st f. | 2nd m. | 2nd n. |
|
||||
|----------|----------|---------|---------|
|
||||
| dat. sg. | -ae | -ō | -ō |
|
||||
| dat. pl. | -īs | -īs | -īs |
|
||||
|
||||
*Iūlius servō mālum dat. Iūlius ancillae mālum dat. Fluvius oppidō aquam dat.* Plurals: *servīs, ancillīs, oppidīs* — all -īs.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Verbs taking dative** for the indirect object — typically with *dare* (give), *ostendere* (show, comes in c8), and the recipient of an action: *Iūlius Mārcō mālum dat.* "Julius gives an apple **to Marcus**." Note dat. sg. m. = abl. sg. m. = -ō; context disambiguates.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Dative of *is/ea/id***: sg. *eī* (m./f./n.); pl. *iīs* (= *eīs*). *Iūlius eī mālum dat.* (Now the *is/ea/id* paradigm is complete.)
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Reflexive *sē*** (acc. sg. & pl., 3rd person; same form): *Iūlia sē in speculō videt.* "Julia sees herself in the mirror." *Syra ōstium post sē claudit.* Compare non-reflexive: *Iūlia eam videt* (sees her — someone else).
|
||||
|
||||
5. **Demonstrative *hic, haec, hoc*** (nominative singular only here, "this near me"):
|
||||
- m. *hic saccus* — "this sack"
|
||||
- f. *haec rosa* — "this rose"
|
||||
- n. *hoc mālum* — "this apple"
|
||||
|
||||
Contrast with *is/ea/id* which is more anaphoric ("that one just mentioned"). Full *hic* paradigm in Cap. VIII.
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Imperative of *esse* and *dare***: *es!* / *este!* (be!); *dā!* / *date!* (give!).
|
||||
|
||||
7. **Compounds with *in-***: *in-est, īn-sunt* (is/are inside); *in-trat* (enters).
|
||||
|
||||
## Common error patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- **Dative ending confused with genitive (1st decl.)**: *Iūlia* and *Iūliae* — *Iūliae* is both gen. sg. and dat. sg.; context (verb of giving = dative). *Iūlius Iūliae mālum dat* = "to Julia," not "of Julia."
|
||||
- **Dative sg. m. (-ō) confused with abl. sg. m. (-ō)**: same form. *Iūlius servō mālum dat* (dat.) vs. *ā servō portātur* (abl. with prep.). Look for *ā/ab* and the verb sense.
|
||||
- ***sē* used for non-reflexive**: *Iūlia eam in speculō videt* — wrong if she's looking at herself; should be *sē*. Conversely *Syra videt sē* used for "Syra sees her [Julia]" — should be *eam*.
|
||||
- ***hic/haec/hoc* gender mismatch**: *hic rosa* — wrong; *rosa* is fem., so *haec rosa*. *haec mālum* — wrong; *mālum* is neut., so *hoc mālum*.
|
||||
- **Dat. pl. *iīs* vs. acc. m. pl. *eōs***: *Iūlius eōs māla dat* — wrong; "gives apples **to them**" needs dat., so *Iūlius iīs māla dat*.
|
||||
- ***plēnus* + wrong case**: *saccus plēnus māla* — wrong; *plēnus* takes genitive: *saccus plēnus mālōrum* ("a sack full of apples").
|
||||
- **Forgetting that *dat* is irregular**: 1pl/2pl/2sg not yet drilled, but 3pl is *dant* (short -a-, but still 1st-conj.-looking).
|
||||
- ***ē* vs. *ex***: *ē hortō* — wrong; before vowel/h use *ex hortō*. Same rule as *ā/ab*.
|
||||
- **Imperative *es!* (be!) confused with *est* (he is) or *ēs* (you eat — comes later)**: *es laeta!* = "be glad!" — addressed to a girl, fem. predicate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Exercise menu
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Identify case + give the dative**: "Decline *servus* dat. sg. and pl." → *servō, servīs.* Cycle through *ancilla, oppidum, puer, fīlia.*
|
||||
2. **Dat. of *is/ea/id***: "Give dat. sg. and pl." → *eī, iīs (eīs).* Then plug in: "Iūlius ___ mālum dat" (= to him) → *eī.*
|
||||
3. **Single-clause dative drill** (PENSVM A style): "Iūlius Mārc- mālum dat." → *Mārcō.* "Iūlius ancill- su- māla dat." → *ancillīs suīs.*
|
||||
4. **Reflexive vs. non-reflexive**: "Iūlia in speculō videt ___ (= herself)." → *sē.* "Iūlia ___ (= her, = Syra) videt." → *eam.* Always single-blank.
|
||||
5. **Demonstrative agreement**: "___ rosa pulchra est" (= this rose). → *haec.* "___ mālum magnum est." → *hoc.* "___ saccus plēnus est." → *hic.*
|
||||
6. **PENSVM A fill**: "Cui Iūlius mālum dat? Iūlius Mārc-, fīli- su-, mālum dat." → *Mārcō, fīliō suō.*
|
||||
7. **Spot the error**: "Iūlius dat servīs māla et pira et fīliae." (Fine, but try:) "Iūlius mālum dat Aemilia." → *Aemiliae* (dat.). Or: "Hic rosa pulchra est." → *Haec rosa.*
|
||||
8. **Translate (recipient + giver)**: "Julius gives an apple to his daughter." → *Iūlius fīliae suae mālum dat.* "The girl gives a kiss to her father." → *Puella patrī ōsculum dat.* (Note: *pater* is 3rd decl., not formally introduced yet — substitute *Iūliō* if needed.)
|
||||
9. **PENSVM C Q&A**: "Cui Iūlius mālum prīmum dat?" → *Iūlius mālum prīmum Mārcō dat.* "Quis ōstium aperit?" → *Ōstiārius (ōstium aperit).*
|
||||
10. **Reflexive imperative**: "Tell Julia to turn around." → *Iūlia, vertī sē!* — actually trickier; *sē* is 3rd person only. Use: *Iūlia sē vertit* (statement) and avoid imperative reflexive at this stage. Better drill: "Translate 'She closes the door behind herself.'" → *Ōstium post sē claudit.*

## Session start

Bare (`/llpsi-c7`): "Cap. VII — Puella et Rosa. Two big things: the dative case (sg & pl, all 3 genders) and the reflexive *sē*. Plus *hic/haec/hoc* (nom. sg. only — full paradigm next chapter). Where do you want to start — dative, *sē*, or *hic*?"
