Sample Sentences
-
Quaerat [praeceptor] etiam, sitne apud Graecos vis quaedam sexti casus et apud nos quoque septimi, nam cum dico "hasta percussi", non utor ablativi natura; nec, si idem Graece dicam, dativi. (The teacher must also inquire if there be traces of a sixth case in Greek and in Latin of a seventh; for when I say "hurt by a spear", I do not make use of the ablative, nor am I using the dative if I do utter the self same sentence in Greek.) [c. 95 CE, Quintilianus, Institutio oratoria 1.4.26]
-
[[…]; tranquillo silet, immotaque attollitur unda campus, et apricis statio gratissima mergis.] "tranquillo" melius septimus est, quam dativus. ([ […] ; but when everything stands in perfect tranquillity, high aloft over the calm sea the rock rises and offers solace to the basking sea-loon (diver).] "tranquillo" is better read as declined in the seventh case than as a dative.) [c. 4th-5th century, Servius Honoratus, In Vergilii Aeneidem commentarii 5.127]
