    Exercise 2

    As participium coniunctum (PC), the participle will appear in case-number-gender agreement


    with a noun. In doing so it will show features that are common to adjectives though retaining
    some verbal functions. The PPA expresses simultaneity, it is to be understood as active and
    as such may take on a direct or even indirect object. The PPP signifies anteriority and can
    only be read as passive with the exception of deponent verbs. The easiest way to understand
    and translate a PC is by transforming it into a relative clause In order to do so, it is necessary
    to identify the substantive it depends on (antecedent) first. In the case of PPA, the participle
    Discipulum librum legentem magister laudat.
    discipulum (m.sg.acc. of discipulus) The student
    legentem (m.sg.acc. of PPA legens) reading
    librum (m.sg.acc. direct object of legens) a/the book
    The teacher praises the student(, who is) reading the book.
    Discipulus opera domestica facta magistro dat.
    opera domestica (n.pl.acc.) homework
    facta (n.pl.acc.) done
    The student gives the homework (he has) done to the teacher.
    Mark the participles and their antecedent in the following sentences. Determine the time
    relationship (simultaneous or antecedent) and then translate by solving the PC with a relative
    clause.
    1. Puer bene dormiens magistrum non audit.
    2. Magister a discipulo rogatus respondet.
    3. Canis lupum clamantem non audit.
    Exercise 3
    PC can be translated as a temporal, modal, adversative, concessive etc. adverbial clause as
    well, e.g.
    Hanc Iupiter in taurum conversus a Sidone Cretam transportavit.
    This one(, who had /after she had been) turned into a steer by Sidone,
    Jupiter transported to Creta.
    Multiple translation options are possible including a fully nominal one like in Latin, please
    translate the following sentences as you see fit into English.
    1. Magister discipulum nomina omnium deorum optime legentem laudabat.
    2. Illi inter se pugnantes alius alium interfecerunt.
    3. Colchi, qui cum Absyrto venerant, timentes Aeetam illic remanserunt.
    4. Pastores arbitrantes Icarium sibi malum medicamentum dedisse eum interfecerunt.
    5. Hannibal copias in Etruriam ducit, eam quoque gentem, aut vi aut voluntate adiuncturus.
