Classis Latina MMIII Exempla Quaestionum Periculorum:
Latin quiz and test questions will come from materials previously
read in class. English quiz questions will be selected from a
set handed out two (2) class periods prior to the quiz. Use the
tests posted on this page as a reference for the types of questions
which are likely to occur on tests in this course.
In Latin translation, even a word that one has never seen before
can still be correctly identified in some of its aspects for points.
As an example, one might be unaware that the word "discipulus"
means "student," yet that will not prevent the word
from being identified as a masculine, singular, noun in the nominative
case. The word "dicimus" can be parsed as a 1st person,
plural, present tense, active, indicative verb without knowing
that it means "we are saying."
Do not let what you don't know stop you from getting the points
for what you do.

Hints:
- Make sure that the number of the subject and verb agree in
your translation.
- Make sure that answer given in the grammar section match
with how you translated the word: e.g. do not state that oppidum
is plural if you translated it as singular. Disparity indicates
error.
- If you have extra time, check your answers. Do they make
sense? Did you translate EVERY word, even the little ones like
"sed"?
