NOTE TO PARENTS/TUTORS:
The study of Latin is a systematic process. Please make sure
that your students learn the vocabulary and forms thoroughly.
The derivatives for the vocabulary are given here so that your
students may connect words in their vocabulary with new
vocabulary and Latin words. This should increase their English
and Latin vocabularies as well as their spelling accuracy (e.g.,
sePARate comes from PARS, PARTIS). Dont worry about hav-
ing your students learn every derivative; just highlight a few.
Students can make up an English story using 10-15 derivatives (it
really stretches their imaginations if you force them to use certain
words in a story). You can also give them extra credit on quizzes
if they give derivatives of the words, spelled correctly.

Adjectives
Adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in
gender (masculine/feminine/neuter), case (nomi-
native/genitive/dative/accusative/ablative) and
number (singular and plural).
Degrees of Adjectives
An adjective describes a noun. In Latin, it agrees
with its noun in gender, case and number. Adjec-
tives have three degrees: positive, comparative,
and superlative.
POSITIVE: This has nothing to do with whether
an adjective denotes a positive feeling or not. This
is the basic adjective; i.e., happy, sad, ugly, mean,
funny. In Latin, it would be: laetus a um, tristis,
triste, turpis, turpe, scelestus a um, and iocosus
a um.
Positive adjective have certain terminations. If
the adjective in the nominative has 3 forms, then
it is 3 terminations (e.g., longus a um). If it has 2
forms, it is 2 terminations (e.g., turpis, turpe). If it
has one form, it is one termination (e.g., ingens).
COMPARATIVE: This is the adjective used when
comparing one noun to another. He is uglier than
you. You are nicer than she. (Keep in mind that
it should be she. The whole sentence should read
You are nicer than she is.)
To make a comparative Latin adjective, take the
base form (look to the feminine OR if the adjective
is one termination, the genitive) and add ior for
masculine and feminine and ius for neuter.
You may translate the comparative with
_______er, more ________ or rather ____________
e.g., laetus, laeta, laetumlaetior, laetius = happier,
rather happy
Est laetior quam tu.
He is happier than you.

multus plus plurimus
much more most

aged elder eldest
Latin Study Guide
SUPERLATIVE: The superlative is used when you
are comparing one noun to all the other nouns in
the world, school, etc. He is the happiest of all.
She is the nicest of all.
To make a superlative adjective, take the base
form (look to the feminine OR if the adjective is
one termination, the genitive) and add issimus,
-rimus or -limus.
You may translate the superlative with ______est,
most _______, or very __________
e.g., laetus, laeta, laetumlaetissimus laetissima, laetis-
simum = happiest, very happy
* Add -rimus if the adjective ends in the letter
r in its masculine nominative singular. e.g.,
pulcherpulcherrimus
* Add -limus to the following words ending in lis:
delis facilis, difculis, similis, dissimilis, gracilis
and humilis e.g., facilisfacillimus
These point out (demonstro, demon-
strare) something/someone. Hic
means this, these, and ille means
that, those. Is/ea/id mean this, that,
these, those, he, she, it, and they.
Qui means who/which. It agrees
with its antecedent in gender and
number. Its case is determined by
its use in its own clause.

Prepositions
Prepositions that take the Ablative Prepositions that take the Accusative

conjunction with a noun. Prepositions in Latin either
are used in conjunction with the accusative case or
the ablative case.

Subjunctive Mood
Used in some subordinate clauses and also some clauses that express what a person wishes to happen (coulda/
shoulda/woulda/mighta). Because it is showing what is possible rather than what is (indicative shows the real
world), there is no future tense (that would be redundant). N.B. (note well) If a word looks strange to you, it is prob-
ably in the subjunctive!
USES OF THE SUBJUNCTIVE

Noun form of a verb; e.g., Running is fun. Running can be
replaced by the word it, therefore it is a gerund. There is
no nominative form of a gerund in Latin. An innitive is
used as a subject. Gerunds are declined like a 2nd declen-
sion neuter singular noun.
To form a gerund, use the present stem (2nd principal part
minus -____re) + imperfect theme vowel + -ndi (genitive),
-ndo (dative), -ndum (accusative), and ndo (ablative)
Adjective form of a verb; also known as a future passive
participle; can be used with a form of sum to show
necessity or obligation
Genitive with causa/gratia, for the sake of
Dative with special adjectives OR as indirect object
Accusative with ad to express purpose
Ablative as means
Gerundive + 3rd Person Singular/Plural sum to show

Agency with a passive periphrastic is expressed by dative
of agent.
