Chapter IX: Part 9
This suffix is attached to a root or to a form of the present stem after the manner of the perfect participle (906): as, #nūntiātum#, _to report_, #nūntiātū#, _in reporting_, stem #nūntiātu-#. Many of the commonest verbs have no supine: as, #sum#, #eō#, #ferō#; #regō#, #emō#, #tegō#; #amō#, #dēleō#, #doceō#, &c., &c.
PRESENT PARTICIPLE.
901. The present participle stem is formed by adding #-nt-# or #-nti-#, nominative #-ns#, to the present stem: as,
#dāns#, _giving_, stems #dant-#, #danti-#; #regēns#, #capiēns#; #laudāns#, #monēns#, #audiēns#.
902. The adjective #sontem# (accusative, no nominative), which was originally the participle of #sum#, has #o# before the suffix, and #absēns# and #praesēns# have #e#; the participle of #eō# has #ē# in the nominative singular, otherwise #u#, #iēns#, #euntis#, &c. #n# rarely drops before #-s# (63): as, LIBES (inscr.), #exsultās# (Enn.), #animās# (Lucr.).
903. Some adjectives which were originally present participles have no verb: as, #clēmēns#, _merciful_, #ēlegāns#, _choice_, #ēvidēns#, _clear_, #frequēns#, _thick_, #petulāns#, _wanton_, #recēns#, _fresh_, #repēns#, _sudden_, &c., &c. For #potēns#, _powerful_, see 922.
FUTURE PARTICIPLE.
904. The future participle suffix is #-tūro-#, nominative #-tūrus#, #-tūra#, #-tūrum#, which is often changed to #-sūro-#, nominative #-sūrus#, #-sūra#, #-sūrum# (912).
This suffix is added to a theme after the manner of the perfect participle (906): as, #rēctūrus#, _going to guide_; #laudātūrus#, _going to praise_.
905. Some future participles have a different formation from that of the perfect participle: as, #mortuus#, _dead_, #moritūrus#; see also in the dictionary #arguō#, #fruor#, #orior#, #ruō#, #secō#. And some verbs have two forms of the future participle: as, #āgnōscō#, #īgnōscō#, #hauriō#, #iuvō#, #pariō#. Some verbs which have no perfect participle have a future participle: as, #acquiēscō#, #appāreō#, #ardeō#, #caleō#, #careō#, #doleō#, #ēsuriō#, #fugiō#, #haereō#, #incidō#, #iaceō#, #-nuō#, #parcō#, #rauciō#, #recidō#, #sonō#, #stō#, #valeō#.
PERFECT PARTICIPLE.
906. The perfect participle suffix is #-to-#, nominative #-tus#, #-ta#, #-tum#, which is often changed to #-so-#, nominative #-sus#, #-sa#, #-sum# (912).
907. The perfect participle was originally active as well as passive, and some participles have retained the active meaning: as,
#adultus#, _grown up_; #ēmersus#, _rising out from_; #exōsus#, #perōsus#, _hating bitterly_; #placitus#, _engaging_; #iūrātus#, _sworn_, #coniūrātus#, _conspiring_; #prānsus#, _having lunched_, #cēnātus#, _having dined_, #pōtus#, _drunk_, &c. The perfect participles of deponents are usually active, but sometimes passive: as, #meditātus#, _having studied_, or _studied_. Many verbs are not accompanied by a perfect participle (811), particularly verbs in #-ēre#, with a parallel adjective in #-idus# (287). Intransitive verbs have usually only the neuter. A perfect active participle #meminēns# is said to have been used twice (Plaut., Laev.).
908. The perfect participle is formed in one of two separate ways:
909. (1.) From a theme consisting of a root; in this way the participles of most verbs in #-ere# and #-ēre# are formed: as,
#gestus#, _carried_, #aptus#, _fit_, #solūtus#, _loosed_ (142), #iūnctus#, _joined_ (831), #sparsus#, _sprinkled_ (170, 3); #doctus#, _taught_.
910. In some consonant root participles of verbs in #-ere#, #-āre#, or #-ēre#, which have the suffix #-u-# in the perfect stem (873), the #-to-# is preceded by a short #i#: as, #genitus#, _born_ (971-976); #domitus#, _tamed_ (993); #monitus#, _warned_ (1003, 1004, 1009). In old Latin, #e# occurs: as, MERETA (41); #e# is retained in #vegetus#, _sprightly_. One participle has #-tuo-#: #mortuus#, _dead_.
911. Some verbs in #-āre# have participles from consonant roots: as, #frictus#, _rubbed_, #fricō#, #fricāre#; see 993. Also some in #-īre#: as, #fartus#, _stuffed_ (170, 3), #farciō#, #farcīre#; #fultus#, _propped_, #fulciō#, #fulcīre#; see 1011-1015, and 1017, 1019, 1020.
912. Roots in #-d-# and #-t-# change #-to-# to #-so-#, before which the dentals change to #s# (159). After long vowels, nasals, and liquids the double #ss# is simplified to #s#: as, #fossus#, _dug_, but #dīvīsus#, _divided_; #vorsus# or #versus#, _turned_. The suffix #-so-# is also found with some roots in #-l-#, #-m-#, or #-r-# and a few others: as, #pulsus# (159).
913. (2.) From a theme in long #ā# or in long #ī#; in this way participles are regularly formed from denominatives in #-āre# or #-īre# respectively: as,
#laudātus#, _praised_; #audītus#, _heard_.
914. A few perfect participles of verbs in #-ere# are formed from a presumed theme in long #ī#, or long #ē#, or from one in long #ū#: as, #petītus#, _aimed at_; #exolētus#, _grown out_; see 967-970; #tribūtus#, _assigned_; see 947, 948.
915. (1.) Many perfect participles formed from consonant roots have a short root vowel (135, 1): as,
#adspectus#, _beheld_; #captus#, _taken_; #coctus#, _cooked_; #commentus#, _devising_; #cultus#, _tilled_; #dictus#, _said_, verb #dīcō#; #ductus#, _led_, #dūcō#; #factus#, _made_; #fossus#, _dug_; #gestus#, _carried_; #inlectus#, _allured_; #questus#, _complaining_; #raptus#, _seized_; #tersus#, _neat_; #textus#, _woven_; #vorsus#, _turned_.
916. (2.) Some perfect participles formed from consonant roots have a long root vowel, sometimes even when the vowel of the parallel present stem is short (135, 1; 122, _f_): as,
#fīxus#, _fastened_, verb #fīgō#; #-flīctus#, _dashed_, #-flīgō#; #pāstus#, _fed_, #pāscō#; #pollūctus#, _offered up_, #pollūceō#; #scrīptus#, _written_, _scrībō_; #-cāsus#, _fallen_, #cadō#. Also #āctus#, _driven_, #agō#; #vīsus#, _seen_, #videō#; #frūctus#, _enjoying_, #fruor#; #lēctus#, _culled_, #legō#; #pīctus#, _painted_, #pingō#; #rēctus#, _ruled_, #regō#; #ēsus#, _eaten_, #edō#; #strūctus#, _piled_, #struō#; #tēctus#, _covered_, #tegō#; #ūnctus#, _anointed_, #unguō#; #frāctus#, _broken_, #frangō#; #pāctus#, _fixed_, #pangō#. Furthermore, #iūnctus#, _joined_, #iungō#; #sānctus#, _hallowed_, #sanciō# (831); also, #fūnctus#, _having performed_, #fungor#.
917. (1.) Most perfect participles formed from vowel roots have a long root vowel: as,
#lātus#, _borne_ (169, 1); #nātus#, _born_; #-plētus#, _filled_; #trītus#, _worn_; #nōtus#, _known_; #sūtus#, _sewed_. So also an isolated #rūtus#, in the law phrase #rūta caesa#, or #rūta et caesa#, _diggings and cuttings_, i.e. _minerals and timber_.
918. (2.) Ten perfect participles formed from vowel roots have a short root vowel; they are:
citus, datus, _hurried_, _given_
itum, ratus, _gone_, _thinking_
-rutus, satus, _fallen_, _planted_
situs, status, _lying_, _set_
litus, quitus, _besmeared_, _been able_
919. As #citus#, so always #percitus# and #incitus# (once #incītus#, doubtful); usually #concitus#, rarely #concītus#; #excitus# and #excītus# equally common; always #accītus#. #ambītus# always has long #ī# (763). #āgnitus#, _recognized_, #cōgnitus#, _known_, and the adjectives #inclutus# or #inclitus#, _of high renown_, and #putus#, _clean_, have a short root vowel. For #dēfrūtum#, #dēfrutum#, see 134, 1.

PART SECOND [decoration] SENTENCES
THE SIMPLE SENTENCE AND ITS PARTS.
1023. A SENTENCE is a thought expressed by means of a verb. The SUBJECT is that which is spoken of. The PREDICATE is that which is said of the subject.
1024. A SIMPLE SENTENCE is one which has only one subject and one predicate.
Thus, #Rhodanus fluit#, _the Rhone flows_, is a simple sentence: the subject is #Rhodanus# and the predicate is #fluit#.
1025. The sentence may be _declarative_, stating a fact, _exclamatory_, crying out about something, _interrogative_, asking a question, or _imperative_, giving a command.
THE SUBJECT.
1026. The subject is a substantive, or any word or words having the value of a substantive.
1027. The subject of a verb is in the nominative case.
1028. The subject may be expressed, or may be merely indicated by the person ending.
1029. (1.) With the first or the second person, the subject is expressed by a personal pronoun (#ego# #tū#, #nōs# #vōs#) only when somewhat emphatic, or in an indignant question. Otherwise the verb of the first or second person is not attended by a personal pronoun: as, #eram#, _I was_, #erās#, _thou wert_.
1030. The subject is regularly omitted when it is general and indefinite, in the first person plural; as, #intellegimus#, _we understand_; and second person singular, as: #putārēs#, _you_, or _anybody would have thought_.
1031. The subject of the first or second person is sometimes a substantive, contrary to the English idiom: as, #Hannibal petō pācem#, _I Hannibal am suing for peace_. #pars spectātōrum scīs#, _a part of you spectators knows_. #exoriāre aliquis nostrīs ex ossibus ultor#, _from out our bones mayst some avenger spring_. #trecentī coniūrāvimus#, _three hundred of us have sworn an oath together_.
1032. (2.) With the third person the subject is regularly expressed, unless the general ‘he she it,’ or ‘they’ implied in the person ending is definite enough.
1033. The third person plural often refers to people in general, particularly of verbs meaning _say_, _name_ or _call_, _think_, and, with #volgō# added, of other verbs also: as, #ferunt#, _they say_, _people say_, or _the world says_. The singular verb #inquit#, is rarely used in the sense of _says somebody_, _it will be said_, or _quotha_.
1034. Some verbs have no subject at all in the third person singular; these are called _Impersonal_. Such are: a few verbs expressing ‘operations of nature,’ five verbs of ‘mental distress,’ and any verb used to denote merely the occurrence of action, without reference to any doer: as,
(_a._) #lūcet#, _it is light_, #lūcēscit#, _it is getting light_; #pluit#, _it rains_, #fulget#, _it lightens_, #tonat#, _it thunders_. (_b._) #miseret#, _it moves to pity_, #paenitet#, _it repents_, #piget#, _it grieves_, #pudet#, _it puts to shame_, #taedet#, _it bores_. (_c._) #bene erat#, _it went well_; #pugnātur#, _there is fighting_, #pugnātum est#, _there was fighting_. See also 816.
THE PREDICATE.
1035. The predicate is either a verb alone, or a verb of indeterminate meaning with a predicate nominative added to complete the sense.
Verbs of indeterminate meaning are such as mean _am_ (something), _become_, _remain_, _seem_, _am thought_, _am called_ or _named_, _am chosen_.
1036. The verb is sometimes omitted, when it is easily understood. So particularly such everyday verbs as mean _am_, _do_, _say_, _come_, and _go_, in proverbs and maxims, in short questions, and in emphatic or lively assertion or description: as,
#quot hominēs, tot sententiae#, sc. #sunt#, _as many men, so many minds_. #omnia praeclāra rāra#, sc. #sunt#, _all that’s very fair is rare_. #mortuus Cūmīs#, sc. #est#, _he died at Cumae_. #bene mihī̆#, sc. #sit#, _be it well with me_, i.e. _a health to me_. #haec hāctenus#, sc. #dīcam#, _thus much only_, or _no more of this_.
ENLARGEMENT OF THE SIMPLE SENTENCE.
1037. The parts of the simple sentence may be enlarged by additions. The commonest enlargements of the subject and of the predicate are the following.
1038. I. The subject may be enlarged by the addition of attributes, appositives, or objects.
1039. (1.) An ATTRIBUTE is an essential addition to a substantive, uniting with it as one idea. The attribute may be:
1040. (_a._) Genitive of a substantive of different meaning, denoting the agent, possessor, or the like: as, #metus hostium#, _fear of the enemy_, i.e. which they feel. #hostium castra#, _camp of the enemy_.
1041. (_b._) Genitive or ablative of a substantive with an adjective in agreement: as, #puer sēdecim annōrum#, _a boy of sixteen years_; #bovēs mīrā speciē#, _kine of wondrous beauty_.
1042. (_c._) A noun in the same case, either an adjective or participle, or else a substantive used adjectively: as, #pugna Cannēnsis#, _the battle of Cannae_; #cīvitātēs victae#, _the conquered communities_; #victor Rōmulus rēx#, _victorious king Romulus_.
1043. (_d._) A substantive in the accusative or ablative with a preposition: as, #pugna ad Cannās#, _the battle near Cannae_. #vir sine metū#, _a man without fear_ (1427).
1044. An attribute is rarely attached immediately to a proper name: as, #fortem Gyān#, _Gyas the brave_. #Q. Lūcānius, eiusdem ōrdinis#, _Lucanius, of the same rank_. It is much oftener attached to a general word in apposition with the proper name: as, #vir clārissimus, M. Crassus#, _the illustrious Crassus_.
1045. (2.) An APPOSITIVE is a separate substantive added as an explanation to another substantive, and in the same case, but not like the attribute uniting with it as one idea: as,
#avītum malum, rēgnī cupīdō#, _the ancestral curse, ambition for a crown_. #Hamilcar, Mārs alter#, _Hamilcar, a second Mars_. #Cornēlia, māter Gracchōrum#, _Cornelia, mother of the Gracchi_. #Teutomatus, Ollivicōnis fīlius, rēx Nitiobrogum#, _Teutomatus, the son of Ollivico, the king of the Nitiobroges_.
1046. (3.) The OBJECT of a substantive is another substantive of different meaning in the genitive, denoting that on which action is exerted: as,
#metus hostium#, _fear of the enemy_, i.e. which is felt towards them. #vēnditiō bonōrum#, _sale of the goods_.
1047. A substantive in any case may be modified like the subject.
1048. II. The predicate may be enlarged by the addition of accusatives, datives, predicate nouns, or adverbial adjuncts.
1049. (1.) The ACCUSATIVE denotes the object of the verb; also extent, duration, and aim of motion. See 1124.
1050. (2.) The DATIVE denotes that for or to which something is or is done. See 1175.
1051. (3.) A predicate noun, either substantive or adjective, denoting ‘office, time, age, order, condition,’ or the like, is often added to other verbs besides those of indeterminate meaning (1035): as,
#Iūnius aedem dictātor dēdicāvit#, _Junius dedicated a temple in his capacity as dictator_, not _Junius the dictator_. #litterās Graecās senex didicī#, _I learned Greek when I was an old man_. #prīnceps in proelium ībat, ultimus excēdēbat#, _he was always the first to go into battle, the last to come out_. For the predicative dative of the substantive, see 1219.
1052. In like manner a noun may be added as a predicate in agreement with a substantive in any oblique case: as,
#sē incolumēs recipiunt#, _they come back safe_. #ante mē cōnsulem#, _before my consulship_. #Dolābellā hoste dēcrētō#, _Dolabella having been voted an enemy_. #nātūrā duce#, _with nature as a guide_.
1053. (4.) An ADVERBIAL ADJUNCT is either an oblique case of a noun, often with a preposition, or an adverb denoting ‘place, time, extent, degree, manner, cause,’ or ‘circumstances’ generally: as,
#silentiō proficīscitur#, _he marches in silence_. #in eō flūmine pōns erat#, _over that river there was a bridge_.
1054. A predicate substantive may be modified like the subject. An adjective either of the subject or of the predicate, may be modified by an oblique case or by an adverb.

COMBINATION OF SENTENCES.
1055. Simple sentences may be combined in two different ways. The added sentence may be I. Coordinate; or II. Subordinate.
Thus, in _he died and we lived_, the two sentences are coordinate, that is, of equal rank. But in _he died that we might live_, the sentence beginning with _that_ is subordinate. In either combination the separate sentences are often called _Clauses_ or _Members_, in contradistinction to the more comprehensive sentence of which they are parts.
I. THE COMPOUND SENTENCE.
1056. A COMPOUND SENTENCE is one which consists of two or more coordinate simple sentences: as,
