  1. Chapter 13

  2. Review: Personal Pronouns • What is a personal pronoun? • Word taking the place of a noun which refers to a person or thing • Marcus and Iulia love Iason. • They love him. • Vōsomnēssuntamīcī. • What is a possessive adjective? • Word that describes a noun to show who possess it • The walls of your city are high. • Moeniaurbisvestraesuntalta.

  3. Reflexive Pronouns • Pronoun that reflects back to the subject • Narcissus looks at himself in the pond. • I cut myself with my sword. • They all end in –self • Reflexive pronouns refer to the subject. • Thus, reflexive pronouns cannot be the nominative. • Therefore, what case are they missing?

  4. Reflexive Pronouns Declension • SAME as the personal pronouns we learned last week but no nominatives! • Example sentences: • Ego laudo me. • Noslaudamus nos. • Laudaste. • Laudatisvos.

  5. New reflexive pronoun • The third person reflexive pronoun is NEW! (this takes the place of the is, ea, id chart) • SAME for singular and plural G: suī D: sibi AC: sē AB: sē • Ealaudatsē • Eaelaudantsē.

  6. Usage • Just like the personal pronouns the genitive does NOT indicate possession • To show possession use the REFLEXIVE, POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVE suus, sua, suum/ meus/ tuus/ noster/ vester • Cicero amicumsuumlaudat. • Cicero praised his (own) friend • Cicero amicus eiuslaudat. • Cicero praised his (some other guy’s) friend • Latin is much more specific than English in this regard!

  7. The Intensive Pronoun • Emphasizes a noun or pronoun • Translate “…self” or “the very” • I MYSELF went to the store • Declension is just like ‘ille’ and the ‘naughty nine’

  8. INTENSIVE PRONOUN:ipse, ipsa, ipsum (see Wheelock pg. 497)

  9. Examples • Brutus ipse mēnēcāvit. = Brutus himself killed me. • Brutus ipsōsagricolāsnēcāvit. = Brutus killed the farmers themselves. • Ipse Brutumnēcāvī. = I myself killed Brutus.
