The names of the numbers, one, two, three, &c., are called Cardinal Numbers; the adjectives which tell their Order, first, second, third, &c., are Ordinal Numbers. Their Latin names are: vicesimus (vigesimus) XX. 21. viginti unus or unus et vi- vicesimus primus, &c. XXI. 30. triginta [ginti tricesimus XXX. 40. quadraginta quadragesimus XL. 50. quinquaginta 60. sexaginta septuagesimus LXX. octogesimus LXXX. nonagesimus XC. C. CC. trecentesimus CCC. quadringentesimus CCCC. quingentesimus I, or D. sexcentesimus DC. septingentesimus DCC. 116. Unus, una, unum, has the genitive unius, and dative uni (65). It is sometimes used in the plural, to agree with a noun that means one thing: as, una castra, one camp. 117. Duo, two (also ambo, both), is thus declined: 118. Tres, tria, three, is declined like the plural of facilis (Table 3). 119. The other Cardinal Numbers, up to 100, are not declined. The hundreds, up to 1000, are declined like the plural of bonus (Table 3). 120. Mille, a thousand, is not declined; millia (milia), thousands, is declined like the plural of rete (Table 1). Thus we say, cum mille hominibus, with a thousand men; but, cum duobus millibus hominum, or, cum bis mille hominibus, with two thousand men. 121. The following are called Distributive Numerals, and are inflected like the plural of bonus: Lesson 30. 123. A word is said to Agree with another, when it is in the same gender, number, case, or person; it is said to Govern another, when it requires it to be in a particular Case. 124. That part of Grammar which teaches the Agreement and Government of Words, and their Arrangement in a sentence, is called SYNTAX. 125. Latin Syntax must be learned from a larger Grammar; but the following Rules will be convenient to help in remembering the more common uses of the language. RULES OF SYNTAX. 1. NOUNS meaning the same thing agree in Case (APPOSITION). 2. ADJECTIVES agree with Nouns in Gender, Number, and Case. 3. RELATIVES agree with their Antecedents in Gender, Number, and Person. 4. A VERB agrees with its Subject in Number and Person. 5. The GENITIVE is used to denote Origin and Possession. 6. Words meaning a Part are followed by the Genitive of the word denoting the Whole. 7. Certain Genitives of Quantity, as magni, pluris, and the like, are used to express indefinite Value. 8. Some words of Memory and Feeling, Fullness and Want, govern the Genitive (39). 9. Verbs of Accusing and the like take the Genitive of the Charge or Penalty. 10. The DATIVE is generally used for the Indirect Object, or for the Person whose interest is concerned. 11. Verbs signifying to favor, help, command, obey, serve, resist, threaten, be angry, pardon, envy, and trust, govern the Dative. 12. The verb esse, to be, with its compounds (except posse and abesse), governs the Dative (103). 13. Verbs compounded with ad, ante, con, in, inter, ob, post, præ, pro, re, sub, super, govern the Dative. 14. Verbs of Comparing, Giving, Declaring, and Taking away, govern the Accusative and Dative. 15. Words implying Purpose or End take a secondary object in the Dative (104). |
