A B C D E F G H I J L M N O P Q R S T U V X Y This grammar reference list, also produced by Lynn Nelson, presently contains two sections: examples of translations for the various uses of several noun cases, and the endings for regular nouns, adjectives, active verbs, and present participles.

If you find that the ending is that of a form of the noun or adjective that is unfamiliar to you, turn to the first section for the different uses of the cases. ablative | accusative | dative | genitive * | *a | *ae | *am | *amus | *ant | *arum | *as | *at | *ate | *atis *bam | *bamus | *bant | *bas | *bat | *batis | *bimus | *bis | *bit | *bitis | *bo | *bunt *e | *ebus | *ei | *em | *emus | *ens | *ent | *ente | *entem | *enti | *entia | *entibus | *entis | *entium | *er | *erim | *erimus | *erint | *eris | *erit | *eritis | *erum | *es | *et | *ete | *etis *i | *ia | *ibus | *imus | *ior | *iora | *iore | *iorem | *iores | *iori | *ioribus | *ioris | *iorum | *is | *issem | *issemus | *issent | *isses | *isset | *issetis | *it | *ite | *itis | *ius *m *o | *ora | *ori | *oribus | *oris | *orum | *os *re | *rem | *remus | *rent | *res | *ret | *retis | *ri | *ria | *ribus | *ris | *rium *u | *ua | *ueram | *ueramus | *uerant | *ueras | *uerat | *ueratis | *uerimus | *uerint | *ueris | *uerit | *ueritis | *uero | *uerunt | *ui | *uimus | *uisti | *uistis | *uit | *um | *unt | *us | *uum Need more help?
