Textkit Vocabulary - Collar and Daniell's Beginner's Latin V
Posted: Mon Jun 09, 2008 3:33 am
Hi all,
I am really new her so bear with me.
I have been using the Textkit Vocabulary builder which I receive via E-mail. However, I don't understand some of the notation on it. For example, here is the last E-mail I received.
On the fist line where it says vinum, -i -n, wine.
What is the -i denoting? I get the -n is telling me it's neutered. At first I thought it was point to case but those don't seem to match up. And some of them don't have anything.
Any help would be appreciated.
**********************************
vinum, -i - n. wine
delectat - delights
delectant - delight
carrus, -i - m. wagon
incola, -ae - m. inhabitant
oppidum, -i - n. town
remus, -i - m. oar
servus, -i - m. slave, servant
ventus, -i - m. wind
in - prep. with acc., into
