Transcript
There are three types of Purpose Clause: 1. Adverbial Purpose: the conjunction ut is followed by a subjunctive verb: Puer currit ut fugiat. The boy is running in order that he may escape. When a negative purpose is expressed, the conjunction ne is used instead of ut: Puer currit ne capiatur. The boy is runnning so as not to be captured. 2. Relative Clause of Purpose: When the subject of the subjunctive verb has been chosen, sent, appointed, or elected, the purpose clause begins with the nominative of the Relative Pronoun, followed by the subjunctive verb: Dux mittit nuntium qui hostes inveniat. The general is sending a messenger who may find the enemy. (The general is sending a messenger to find the enemy.)
