Chapter 25 FIRST MORNING IN ROME

Iam diēs erat. Magnus erat clāmor in urbe. Servī ad Forum magnō tumultū

onera ferēbant. Undique clāmor et strepitus! Sed nihil clāmoris, nihil strepitūs ad

Marcum pervēnit. In lectō stertēbat, nam dēfessus erat. Sextus quoque in lectō

manēbat sed dormīre nōn poterat. Clāmoribus et strepitū excitātus, iam cōgitābat

dē omnibus rēbus quās Titus heri nārraverat. “Quid hodiē vidēbimus? Cornēliusne

nōs in Forum dūcet? Ego certē Forum et Cūriam et senātōrēs vidēre volō.”

Intereā Eucleidēs, quī prīmā lūce exierat, iam domum redierat. Statim

cubiculum puerōrum petīvit et, “Eho, puerī!” inquit. “Cūr nōndum surrēxistis?

Abhinc duās hōrās ego surrēxī. Quod novum librum emere volēbam, in Argīlētum

māne dēscendī ad tabernam quondam ubi in postibus nōmina multōrum poētārum

vidēre potes. Catullus, Flaccus—“

At puerī celeriter interpellāvērunt quod Eucleidēs, ut bene sciēbant, semper

aliquid novī docēre volēbat. “Quid in viīs vīdistī?”

Eucleidēs, “Nihil,” inquit, “nisi miserum hominem lapidibus oppressum. Bovēs

lapidēs quadrātōs in plaustrō trahēbant ad novum aedificium quod Caesar prope

Domum Auream cōnficit. Illud aedificium est ingēns amphitheātrum et mox

prīnceps lūdōs ibi faciet. Sī bonī puerī fueritis, fortasse ad lūdōs ībitis.”

What’s going on here?

Sed nihil clāmoris, nihil strepitūs ad Marcum pervēnit.

Eucleidēs, ut bene sciēbant, semper aliquid novī docēre volēbat.

Multi pueri libros legunt.

Multi (sed non omnes) puerorum

movent.

Sunt in pictura multi canes

Sex canum latrant.

Sex canes latrant.

Quattuor canes currunt et ambulant.

Quattuor canum currunt et ambulant.

Est magnus strepitus!

Ego nihil strepitūs audio!

Is used to show when part of something is being mentioned.

The larger group goes in the genitive Multi servorum in agris laboraverunt.

(Many of the slaves worked in the fields)

Nihil temporis habemus. (We have no time. We have nothing of time.)

Satis clamoris, pueri!(Enough of shouting, boys! Enough shouting, boys!)

Watch for key words to introduce it.Nihil: Nihil mali = nothing (of) badMulti: Multae arborum = many of the treesSatis: Satis complexuum = enough embracesPars: Partes urbis = parts of the cityPlus: Plus vini = more (of) wine

Nihil strepitūs, nihil clamoris ad Marcum pervenit.

Eucleides pueros aliquid novi docere volebat.

How do you translate these partitives?

Titus aliquid vini biberat. Scelestus caupo aliquid mali fecerat. Princeps satis ludorum viderat. Discipulae satis laboris confecerant. Discipulae nihil laboris confecerant. Pauci discipulorum ad ludos ierunt. Pauci discipuli ad ludos ierunt.

Genitive can now be used for:

Possessor showing someone who owns or possesses another noun

(Epistula Flaviae long erat.)

and

Partitive showing part of something bigger

(Satis temporis non habemus.)
