Question 14

Translate: “Marce, ramum arripe!” clamant perterritae puellae.

Answer 14

“Marcus, snatch the branch!” shout the terrified girls.

Marce is vocative case. (Remember that a noun ending in -us changes to -e in the vocative case.) What is the vocative case used for? Direct address. So someone is speaking to Marcus in this sentence. What do they say to him? Ramum arripe. Arripe is an imperative verb–a command. It’s from arripere, which means to snatch. What are they telling Marcus to snatch? Ramum - a branch. The accusative ending -um indicates it is the direct object of the verb. “Marcus, snatch the branch!”

Who is talking? Clamant perterritae puellae. Clamant means “they shout”–it ends in -nt, so “they” is the subject. But who’s “they”? Perterritae puellae - the terrified girls. So put it all together…

Question 15

Translate: Davus statim servum reprehendit

Answer 15

Davus immediately scolds the slave.

Davus ends in the nominative ending -us, so we know it is the subject. What’s the verb? What is Davus doing? Remember that the verb is usually found at the very end of the sentence. Such is the case here: reprehendit. How do we know it’s a verb? It ends in a verb ending: -t. Davus scolds… Whom does he scold? What’s the direct object? To find a direct object, look for a NOUN that has an ACCUSATIVE ending. Servum is a noun, AND it has the accusative ending -um. So it’s the direct object: Davus scolds the slave. What about statim? Statim is an adverb that means “immediately.” Put it all together…
