Fill coverage gaps in chapters 1-11
Audited each chapter file against actual LLPSI Familia Romana content using parallel reviewers (Claude general-purpose subagents, codex, gemini). Each chapter gained missing vocabulary, grammar points, common-error patterns, and exercise types. ~190 lines added across 11 files. Highlights per chapter: - c1: geography proper nouns, -us fem. exceptions, num-question answer pattern - c2: -er paradigm contrast (puer/vir/liber), -que rewrite drill - c3: interrog. vs. relative quem, neque rewrite - c4: nullus/UNUS NAUTA, -ius vocative, eius/suus contrast - c5: relative pron. (nom.), suus agreement, -ae ambiguity - c6: passus 4th-decl preview, mille/milia, autem postpositive - c7: cui drill, plenus + gen., quod (because/relative/interrog.) trap - c8: hic/ille discourse force, UNUS NAUTA class, quantus/quot trap - c9: stem recovery from gen., ipse emphasis target, sub + abl. for location - c10: fera vs. ferus, abesse/adesse/ire infinitives, quia/quod synonymy - c11: full posse paradigm, dat. of reference (mihi dolet), gaudere syntax Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## Common error patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- **Genitive vs. nom. pl. confusion**: student parses *fīliī* as gen. sg. when it's nom. pl. (or vice versa). Always disambiguate by what's around it.

@@ -53,6 +61,10 @@ If invoked with a topic (e.g. `/llpsi-c2 genitive`), focus there. Otherwise mix.
|
||||
- **Missing -ōrum in gen. pl.**: student says "of the slaves" as *servī* (gen. sg.) — must be *servōrum*.
|
||||
- **Gender of *liber***: it's masculine despite ending in -er; gen. is *librī*. Easy trap.
|
||||
- **Wrong gender of *duo***: student says *duo ancillae* — should be *duae ancillae*.
|
||||
- ***-er* paradigm cross-contamination**: dropping the *e* in *puer* (*\*prī*) by analogy with *liber → librī*, or keeping it in *liber* (*\*liberī*). Memorize per word.
|
||||
- **Overusing *et***: *Mārcus et Quīntus et Iūlia* is grammatical but Ørberg prefers *-que* on the last item: *Mārcus, Quīntus Iūliaque*.
|
||||
- **Confusing *quī?* (m. pl.) with *quis?* (sg.)**: *quis est?* (one person) vs. *quī sunt?* (multiple men).
|
||||
- ***cuius* is invariant**: students invent *\*cuiae* by analogy with adjective endings — wrong; *cuius* covers all genders.
