rms of fero lack the connecting
vowel. Some of them, as ferimus, ferunt, follow the regular inflection of
verbs of the Third Conjugation.
[47] For the Predicate Genitive, see Sec. 198, 3; 203, 5.
[48] Many such verbs were originally intransitive in English also, and once
governed the Dative.
[49] This was the original form of the preposition cum.
[50] Place from which, though strictly a Genuine Ablative use, is treated
here for sake of convenience.
[51] Especially: moneo, admoneo; rogo, oro, peto, postulo, precor, flagito;
mando, impero, praecipio; suadeo, hortor, cohortor; persuadeo, impello.
[52] Especially: permitto, concedo, non patior.
[53] Especially: prohibeo, impedio, deterreo.
[54] Especially: constituo, decerno, censeo, placuit, convenit, paciscor.
[55] Especially: laboro, do operam, id ago, contendo, impetro.
[56] Exclamations, also, upon becoming indirect, take the Subjunctive, as
considera quam variae sint hominum cupidines, _consider how varied are the
desires of men._ (Direct: quam variae sunt hominum cupidines!)
[57] Tradituri fuerint and erraturus fueris are to be regarded as
representing tradituri fuerunt and erraturus fuisti of Direct Discourse.
(See Sec. 304, 3, b.)
[58] Except in Sallust and Silver Latin.
[59] So named from a fancied analogy to the strokes of the Greek letter
(_chi_). Thus:--
multos laesi
_chi_
defendi neminem
[60] The pronouns hic, hoc, and the adverb huc, probably had a short
_vowel_. The syllable was made long by pronouncing hicc, hocc, etc.
[61] Ictus was not accent,--neither stress accent not musical accent,--but
was simply the quantitative prominence inherent in the long syllables of
_fundamental feet_.
[62] For explanation of the abbreviations, see p. 257.
