Bellwork:

The Romans valued highly "urbanitas" which means politeness or good manners. They used often words like please "quaeso" or "te amabo"  and thank you "gratiam ago."  We are going to practice meeting and greeting each other in Latin. But first you need to copy for you notebooks the following:

Salve (hello to one person)
Quid agis? How are you?
Ut vales? How are you doing?
Quid nomen est tibi? What is your name?
Nomen est mihi.... My name is
Vale! Goodbye (to one person)

Then copy the following words and images, which are answers to the questions quid agis? and ut vales?:





































Now put these words into practice by introducing yourself to others in the class,  learning their names and how they are feeling.  I will then ask you about what you learned about members of the class.
"Quid nomen est sibi (him, her)"
"Quid agit hodie." How is s/he doing/feeling today?

Pronouncing Latin: De Latine Loquendo

Syntax is the set of rules, principles, and processes that govern the structure of sentences in a given language.

Subject: the subject of a sentence or clause is what performs the action of a verb.

Transitive verb: takes a direct object, a noun that receives the action of the verb. Cornelia hears a voice.  The loud voice scares Cornelia.  "Hear" and "scare" are transitive verbss.

Intransitive verb: does not take a direct object. Cornelia sits under the tree. Sextus falls out of the tree. "sit" and "fall" are intransitive verbs.

Linking verb: the most common linking verb is the verb "to be." It links the subject to a description of the subject. The description is called a "complement."

Direct Object: The noun which is the direct object of a transitive verb

Indirect object: a noun or noun phrase referring to someone or something that is affected by the action of a transitive verb (typically as a recipient), but is not the primary object (e.g. give him the book ; give the book to him).
