nt. 11. Quem imperator illi legioni praefecit? Publius illi legioni pracerat. 12. Cum esset Caesar in citeriore Gallia, crebri ad eum[2] rumores adferebantur litterisque quoque certior fiebat Gallos obsides inter se dare. II. 1. The Gauls will make war upon Caesar's allies. 2. We heard that the Gauls would make war upon Caesar's allies. 3. Publius did not take part in that battle. 4. We have been informed that Publius did not take part in that battle. 5. The man who was in command of the cavalry was wounded and began to retreat. 6. Caesar did not place you in command of the cohort to bring[3] disaster upon the army. [Footnote 2: Observe that when /adfero\ denotes _motion to_, it is not followed by the dative; cf. footnote, p. 182.] [Footnote 3: Not the infinitive. (Cf. Sec. 352.)] LESSON LXXIV VOCABULARY REVIEW : THE SUBJUNCTIVE IN INDIRECT QUESTIONS _429._ Review the word lists in Secs. 517, 518. _430._ When we report a statement instead of giving it directly, we have an indirect statement. (Cf. Sec. 414.) So, if we report a question instead of asking it directly, we have an indirect question. DIRECT QUESTION INDIRECT QUESTION _Who conquered the Gauls? He asked who conquered the Gauls_ _a._ An indirect question depends, usually as object, upon a verb of asking (as peto, postulo, quaero, rogo) or upon some verb or expression of saying or mental action. (Cf. Sec. 420.) _431._ Compare the following direct and indirect questions: DIRECT INDIRECT Quis Gallos vincit? { _a._ Rogat quis Gallos vincat _Who is conquering the_ { _He asks who is conquering the_ _Gauls?_ { _Gauls_ { _b._ Rogavit quis Gallos vinceret { _He asked who was conquering_ { _the Gauls_ { _a._ Rogat ubi sit Roma Ubi est Roma? { _He asks where Rome is_ _Where is Rome?_ { _b._ Rogavit ubi esset Roma { _He asked where Rome was_ { _a._ Rogat num Caesar Gallos vicerit { _He asks whether Caesar conquered_ Caesarne Gallos vicit? { _the Gauls_ _Did Caesar conquer the_ { _b._ /Rogavit num Caesar Gallos _Gauls?_ { vicisset { _He aske
