Example Question #1 : Using Second Declension Adjectives In Latin
Which adjective correctly completes the sentence below?
Agricola __________ est.
laetum
laeta
laeti
laetus
laetus
Although "agricola" is a first declension noun, it is a rare exception to this declension in that it is masculine, meaning it would require the second declension masculine adjective form "laetus" in order to match grammtically in case, number and gender.
Example Question #2 : Using Second Declension Adjectives In Latin
Which adjective form properly completes the sentence?
Mare __________ est.
placidum
placido
placida
placidus
placidum
"Mare" is a third declension neuter singular noun. Thus it requires the neuter nominative singular adjective form, "placidum."
Example Question #3 : Using Second Declension Adjectives In Latin
Which adjective form properly completes the sentence?
Cornu capri __________ est.
longum
longus
longa
longo
longum
"Cornu" is a neuter fourth declension noun. It appears in the nominative singular case in this sentence, meaning it requires the neuter nominative singular form "longum."
