Saluēte omnēs,
I have just finished the exercise 261 of pages 116 and 117 of pdf. My answers are different of the answers in the key in two minor points and I would like to know who is right or if both (I and the key) can be right.
I.3- Post adventum suum Caesar iussit legiÅnÄ“s ex castrÄ«s dÅ«cÄ«
The key gives:
“After his arrival, Caesar ordered the legionary soldiers to be led out of the campâ€
I have:
“After his arrival, Caesar ordered the legions to be led out of the campâ€
I know it is a minor difference and it could be both taken if a freely translation would be taken, but for the key answer to be correct shouldn’t be:
“Post adventum suum Caesar iussit mÄ«litÄ“s legiÅnÄriÅs ex castrÄ«s dÅ«cÄ«â€
Here I’m not sure if mīlitīes should be in accusative (because it is the subject of the infinitive) or in the nominative because it is a subject of a verb in a passive form.
II.8- “He is a beautiful animal and has great strengthâ€
The key gives:
“Pulchrum est animal et vÄ«s habet magnaâ€
I have:
“Pulchrum est animal et vim magnam habetâ€
Shouldn’t strength be in accusative here?
Best regards,
Andrus
