Salvete,
Apologies for the number of posts i’m putting up but the question here concerns whether quo (abl of qui) should be used in a purpose clause containing a comparative.
The Question is :
They are setting out at daybreak in order that they may make a longer march before night.
The answer key gives:
Prima luce proficiscuntur ut ante noctem iter longius faciant.
Given the comparative longius is used, should not quo be used instead of ut to introduce the purpose clause?
Many thanks,
Thomas
