LATIN
111
Midterm Review (Fall 2002)
What you will be expected to be able to do on the Latin 111 midterm exam:
All vocabulary
from chapters 1-6.
All grammar presented in chapters 1-6.
See the index in
Wheelock for a run-down on what will be covered. Practice by doing the
exercises in the back of the book. I will seek inspiration there as I write
the test.

Be able to decline noun/adjective pairs in singular and plural:
a
small kiss (basium parvum)
the pretty teacher (magistra pulchra)
a
great poet (poeta magnus)
Know a derivative – if
available – for each vocabulary word
VERBS: Be able to
translate conjugated verb forms both ways:
examples:
-
poteris = you will be able
- I
was praising = laudabam
Be able to translate sentences
and answer detailed questions about each word/construction:
ex: Mali libros
bonos tolerare non possunt.
answer: The evil
men are not able to tolerate good, free men.
Possible questions:
1. Explain how you
know that “mali” is a substantive. That means you have to know what a
substantive is, how it is
translated, and why it looks the way it does.
2. What kind of
infinitive does “possunt” take in this sentence? Answer: “complementary
infinitive”
There will also be a section
asking you questions about Latin language concepts we have covered. I will
also take one of the stories we read in class and ask questions about it. I
will only ask questions about concepts/vocabulary covered through chapter 6.
