Personal or Reflexive?
Directions: Indicate the person and number of the verbs marked in bold in each of the
following sentences. Then determine the person and number of the pronoun marked in

reflexive and refers back to the subject of the verb. Translate such pronouns with –self/selves.

Latin Crossword
Directions: Go online and find a program that allows you to create a crossword puzzle.
You can find these by searching for “crossword create.” Be sure it is free! The puzzle
makers will make it easy to create your puzzle.
Create a puzzle where the clues are simple math exercises written in Roman Numeral
format, and answers are in word format.
For example:
Across
1. X x II
(the answer, in the puzzle, would be vīgintī)
2. XVIII + V (the answer, in the puzzle, would be vīgintī trēs)
The program will arrange the answers for you. You only have to enter the clues and the
answers. It does the rest. To obtain 12 clues, however, you will normally have to enter a
number of pairs of additional clues and answers as the program cannot fit them all in
every time.
Rules:
a) Minimum of 12 clues.
b) Bring to class both a blank version of the puzzle and one with the answers filled in.
Most programs allow you to print both sorts.

Deponent with Impersonal Verbs
Directions: In Caput XII you learned that impersonal verbs do not use 1st or 2nd person
endings. Instead these verbs only use the 3rd person, are translated with “it” as the subject,
and are followed by infinitives. Here are some examples:
necesse est
“it is necessary (to……..)”
oportet
“it is proper (to…………)”
decet
“it is fitting (to…………)”
As you do the exercise notice how impersonal verbs use different cases for the person
under the obligation. Supply the present infinitive form of the deponent in parentheses to
complete each of the following sentences. Then translate each sentence into English. We
have done the first one for you.
1. mihi (prōgredior) necesse est:
mihi prōgredī necesse est.
It is necessary for me to come.

Getting Ready to play Magister vōs iubet!
Directions: Perhaps you know the game Magister vōs iubet! as “Simon Says!” You will
play this game in the upcoming COLLOQUĀMUR.
Remember the rules of the game:
If magister (Simon) says: Magister vōs sedēre iubet (“The instructor orders you to
sit.”), all the players should sit down.
If magister (Simon) simply says: Sedētē! (“Sit!”), any players who sit down are
out of the game.
The last player left is the winner and can become magister for the next round.
In order to play Magister vōs iubet! the class needs to make two lists of commands for
the magister. Use the phrase Magister vōs iubet! for the first list and a simple imperative
for the second. For the time being just use plural Latin imperatives for the second list. We
have given you the Magister vōs iubet! list. Your job is to make the Latin imperative
form and translate it into English. The first two are done for you.
N.B. Watch out for deponent verbs!
