645. The nominatives #ego# and #tū#, and the accusatives #mē#, #tē# and #sē#, have no case ending. The last vowel of #ego# is rarely long in Plautus, long or short in Lucilius. The nominative ego has a different stem from that of its other cases, and the plurals of #ego# and #tū# have a different stem from that of the singular.
646. #meī#, #tuī#, and #suī#, which are often monosyllables in old verse, were originally the genitive of the neuter possessives, used substantively. An old genitive #mīs# is quoted, and #tīs# occurs rarely in Plautus.
647. The relation of the ending #-bīs# in #vōbīs# to #-bī̆# in #tibī̆# may be due to analogy with #illīs, illī#. #nōbīs# is formed after #vōbīs#.
648. In old Latin, the ablative is #mēd, tēd, sēd# (426), which forms are also used irrationally for the accusative. But by Terence’s time the #-d# was no longer used (143).
649. Older forms for #vestrū̆m# and #vestrī# are #vostrūm# and #vostrī#. The genitive plural was originally a genitive of the possessive: that in #-ī# being the neuter singular, that in #-ū̆m# the masculine or feminine plural. In old Latin, #nostrōrum#, #nostrārum#, #vostrōrum#, #vostrārum# also occur.
650. Emphasis is given (1.) by reduplication (189): Ac. and Ab. #mēmē#, #tētē#, rare; #sēsē#, very common. (2.) by #-te# added to the N. of #tū#: #tūte#. (3.) by #-met# added to any case but the genitive plural: as, #egomet#; but #tū# has only #tūtemet# or #tūtimet#.
651. In inscriptions, the datives MIHEI, TIBEI, and SIBEI occur, so written in verse sometimes even when the last syllable is short; and MIHE, TIBE. Plural: D. and Ab. VOBEIS. Ac. ENOS in an old hymn; SEESE (29, 1).
THE PERSONAL AND REFLEXIVE POSSESSIVE.
652. The possessives of #ego#, #tū#, and #suī#, are #meus#, _mine_, #tuus#, _thine_, and #suus#, _his, her, its, their_ (_own_), declined like #bonus# (613), except that #meus# has #mī# in the vocative singular masculine (459); those of #nōs# and #vōs# are #noster#, _our_, and #voster#, later #vester#, _your_, declined like #aeger# (617).
653. Old forms are #tuos#, #tuom#, and #suos#, #suom# (452). In old verse #me͡us#, #me͡i#, &c., #tu͡os#, #tu͡i#, &c., #su͡os#, #su͡i#, &c., often occur. #sōs# for #suōs#, #sās# for #suās#, and #sīs# for #suīs#, are old and rare.
654. Other case forms are found in inscriptions, as follows:
MEEIS, MIEIS, monosyllable; TOVAM; SVEI, SOVOM, SOVO, SVVO, SOVEIS, SVEIS, SVIEIS.
655. Emphasis is given (1.) by #-met# added to #suō#, #suā#, #suōs#, and to #mea# and #sua#, neuter plural: as, #suōmet#; (2.) by #-pte#, which is oftenest found with the ablative: as, #suōpte#.
(B.) OTHER PRONOUNS.
656. Some pronouns have a peculiar genitive singular in #-ī̆us# and dative singular in #-ī#, for masculine, feminine, and neuter alike.
These are: #iste#, #ille#, #ipse#, #uter#, and their derivatives. Some other words of a pronoun character also have this form of the genitive and dative: see 618.
657. In verse, the #-ī-# of the genitive is often shortened, and always in #utriusque#; but #neutrīus# is not found with short i. In dramatic verse, the genitive singular of #iste#, #ille#, or #ipse#, is often two syllables.
658. #hīc#, is, #quī# or #quis#, and their derivatives have the genitive singular in #-ius#, thus: #huius#, #eius#, and #quoius# or #cuius#; in dramatic verse, these genitives are often one syllable. Their datives are #huic# for #hoice#, #ē̆ī# or #e͡i#, and #quoi# or #cui#.
659. Six words have a peculiar neuter nominative and accusative singular in #-d#: #id#, #illud#, #istud#, #quid#, #quod#, #aliud#, and derivatives. In manuscripts, #-t# is sometimes found for #-d#: as, #it#, #illut#, #istut#, &c.; sometimes also in inscriptions of the empire. In #hoc# for #*hod-ce# and in #istuc# and #illuc# for #*istud-ce#, #*illud-ce#, the #d# has vanished (166, 1; 171, 1).
THE DEMONSTRATIVE PRONOUN.
660. The demonstrative pronouns are #hīc#, _this_, _this near me_; #iste#, #istic#, _that_, _that near you_; and #ille#, #illic#, _yonder_, _that_.
661. The demonstrative pronoun #hīc#, _this_, _this near me_, is declined as follows:
+--------+---------------------+---------------------+ | | Singular. | Plural. | +--------+---------------------+---------------------+ | | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | | _Nom._ | hīc haec hoc | hī hae haec | | _Gen._ | huius huius huius | hōrum hārum hōrum | | _Dat._ | huic huic huic | hīs hīs hīs | | _Acc._ | hunc hanc hoc | hōs hās haec | | _Abl._ | hōc hāc hōc | hīs hīs hīs | +--------+---------------------+---------------------+
662. The stem of #hīc# is #ho-#, #hā-#; to most of its cases a demonstrative #-c# for #-ce# is attached. The masculine and feminine nominative singular and nominative and accusative neuter plural take an #-i-#: #hīc# for #*ho-i-ce# (108, _a_); #haec# for #ha-i-ce# (96). #hunc#, #hanc#, are for #*hom-ce#, #*ham-ce#. For the quantity of the first syllable of #huius#, see 153, 2; of #hoc#, 171, 1.
663. Old forms with the full ending #-ce# are rare except after #-s#: Plural Ne. Acc. #haece# (Enn.); G. F. #hārumce# (Cato); also G. #hōrunc#, #hārunc# (Pl., T.); #hōsce#, D. and Ab. #hīsce# (Pl., T.). After 100 B.C., the full form #-ce# is not found, except occasionally after #-s#: #huiusce#, #hōsce#, #hāsce#, #hīsce#. Before #-ne# interrogative it is retained in the weakened form #-ci-#: as, #hīcine#. But #hīcne#, #hocne#, #huicne#, &c., are found, though rarely.
664. The nominative #hic# or #hicine# found in the dramatists and rarely later is probably for #*ho-c#, #*he-c# (103, _a_). A nominative plural feminine #haec# is found in writers of all ages. Other and rare forms are: Pl. N. M. #hīsce# (461), D. or Ab. #hībus#.
665. Other case forms of #hīc# are found in inscriptions, as follows:
N. M. HEC, HIC. G. HOIVS, HVIIVS (23), HVIVS, HOIVSCE, HOIVSQVE, HVIVSQVE. D. HOICE, HOIC, HOI, HVIC, HVI. Ac. M. HONC, HOC; F. HANCE; Ne. HOCE, HVC. Ab. M. and Ne. HOCE; F. HACE, oftener than HAC in republican inscriptions; HAACE (29, 1). Loc. HEICE, HEIC. Plural: N. M. HEISCE, HEIS, or HEI, HISCE or HIS; HI, not before Augustus; Ne. N. and Ac. HAICE, HAECE. G. HORVNC. D. and Ab. HEISCE, HIBVS. Ac. F. HASCE.
666. The demonstrative pronouns #iste#, _that_, _that near you_, and #ille#, _yonder_, are declined alike, as follows:
+--------+------------------------+---------------------------+ | | Singular. | Plural. | +--------+------------------------+---------------------------+ | | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | | _Nom._ | ille illa illud | illī illae illa | | _Gen._ | illī̆us illī̆us illī̆us | illōrum illārum illōrum | | _Dat._ | illī illī illī | illīs illīs illīs | | _Acc._ | illum illam illud | illōs illās illa | | _Abl._ | illō illā illō | illīs illīs illīs | +--------+------------------------+---------------------------+
667. The first syllable of #iste# and #ille# is often short in the dramatists. Old forms of #iste# are: N. #istus#, G. #istī#, in #istīmodī#, D. F. #istae#. The initial #i# of #iste# and of #istic# (669), is sometimes not written: as, #sta rēs# (Cic.), #stūc perīculum# (Ter.). Old forms of #ille# are: N. #olus# (81); #ollus# or #olle#, &c.: as, D. S. or N. Pl. #ollī#, D. Pl. #ollīs#. G. #illī#, in #illīmodī#, D. F. #illae#. The dramatists have #eccistam#, #eccilla#, #eccillud#, #eccillum#, #eccillam#, for #ecce istam#, &c., and #ellum#, #ellam#, for #em illum#, &c.
668. Other case forms of ille are found in inscriptions, as follows:
D. F. ILLAE. Plural: N. M. ILLEI. G. OLORVM (81). D. and Ab. OLLEIS, ILLEIS.
669. #istic# and #illic#, compounded of #iste#, #ille#, and #-ce# or #-c#, are declined alike, as follows:
+--------+------------------------+---------------------------+ | | Singular. | Plural. | +--------+------------------------+---------------------------+ | | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | | _Nom._ | illic illaec illuc | illīc illaec illaec | | _Acc._ | illunc illanc illuc | illōsce illāsce illaec | | _Abl._ | illōc illāc illōc | illīsce illīsce illīsce | +--------+------------------------+---------------------------+
670. Rare forms are: N. and Ac. Ne. #istoc#, #illoc#, G. #illīusce#, D. #illīc#, Ab. F. #istāce#, #illāce#. Plural: N. M. #illīsce# (461), #illīc#, Ac. #illōsce#, #illāsce#. Before #-ne# interrogative, #-ce# becomes #-ci-#: N. #illicine#, #istucine#, Ac. #illancine#, Ab. #istōcine#, #istācinē#. Pl. Ac. #istōscine#.
THE DETERMINATIVE PRONOUN.
671. The determinative pronoun #is#, _that_, _the aforesaid_, _the one_, is declined as follows:
+--------+-------------------+---------------------------------+ | | Singular. | Plural. | +--------+-------------------+---------------------------------+ | | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | | _Nom._ | is ea id | eī, iī, eae ea | | | | or ī | | _Gen._ | eius eius eius | eōrum eārum eōrum | | _Dat._ | ē̆ī ē̆ī ē̆ī | eīs, iīs, eīs, iīs, eīs, iīs, | | | | or īs or īs or īs | | _Acc._ | eum eam id | eōs eās ea | | _Abl._ | eō eā eō | eīs, iīs, eīs, iīs, eīs, iīs, | | | | or īs or īs or īs | +--------+-------------------+---------------------------------+
672. #is# and #id# (659) are formed from a stem #-i-#, and the other parts from a stem #eo-#, #eā-#. The genitive is sometimes written in Cicero and Plautus #eiius#; for the quantity of the first syllable of #eius#, see 153, 2; for #ĕ̄i#, see 127, 3, and 127, 4.
673. In old verse, the genitive singular rarely has the first syllable short. Old and rare forms are: D. F. #eae#, Ac. M. #im# or #em#. Pl. D, and Ab. #ī̆bus#, F. #eābus# (442). In dramatic verse, #e͡um#, #e͡am#, #e͡i#, #e͡o#, #e͡a#, and #e͡i#, #e͡orum#, #e͡arum#, #e͡os#, #e͡as#, #e͡is#, are often found; also #eccum#, #eccam#, #eccōs#, #eccās#, #ecca#, for #ecce eum#, &c.
674. Other case forms of #is# are found in inscriptions, as follows:
N. EIS, 124 B.C. G. EIVS, EIIVS, EIIVS or EIIVS (23). D. EIEI, 123 B.C.; EEI, IEI; EI, 123 B.C., and common in all periods. Plural: N. EEIS, EIS, IEIS, till about 50 B.C.; EEI, EI, IEI. D. and Ab. EEIS, EIEIS, IEIS, IS; after the republic, IIS, IIS.
675. A rare and old pronoun equivalent to #is# is #sum#, #sam#, accusative singular, #sōs#, accusative plural, and #sīs#, dative plural.
THE PRONOUN OF IDENTITY.
676. The pronoun of identity, #īdem#, _the same_, is declined as follows:
+--------+-------------------------+-------------------------------+ | | Singular. | Plural. | +--------+-------------------------+-------------------------------+ | | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | | | | | | _Nom._ | īdem eadem idem | eīdem } eaedem eadem | | | | or īdem } | | | | | | _Gen._ | eiusdem eiusdem eiusdem | eōrundem eārundem eōrundem | | | | | | _Dat._ | eīdem eīdem eīdem | eīsdem } eīsdem } eīsdem } | | | | or īsdem} or īsdem} or īsdem} | | | | | | _Acc._ | eundem eandem idem | eōsdem eāsdem eadem | | | | | | _Abl._ | eōdem eādem eōdem | eīsdem } eīsdem } eīsdem } | | | | or īsdem} or īsdem} or īsdem} | +--------+-------------------------+-------------------------------+
677. In manuscripts and editions, the plural nominative masculine is often written #iīdem#, and the dative and ablative #iīsdem#. The singular nominative masculine is rarely #eisdem# or #isdem# (Plaut., Enn.), #eidem# (Cic., Varr.), neuter #īdem# (Plaut.). In verse, #eundem#, #e͡andem#, #e͡idem#, #e͡odem#, #e͡adem#, and #e͡idem#, #e͡aedem#, #e͡orundem#, #e͡osdem#, #e͡asdem#, are often found.
678. Other case forms of #īdem# are found in inscriptions, as follows:
N. M. EISDEM, 123 B.C., ISDEM, 59 B.C., both common till Caesar’s time; EIDEM; Ne. EIDEM, 71 B.C. D. IDEM. Plural: N. M. EISDEM, ISDEM, EIDEM, till Caesar’s time; IIDEM, once only. D. and Ab. ISDEM, very rarely IISDEM.
THE INTENSIVE PRONOUN.
679. The intensive pronoun #ipse#, _himself_, stems #ipso-#, #ipsā-#, is declined like #ille# (666), but has the nominative and accusative neuter singular #ipsum#.
680. In dramatic verse, #ipse# has rarely the first syllable short, and often has the older form #ipsus#. Plautus has these forms: N. F. #eapse#, Ac. #eumpse#, #eampse#, Ab. #eōpse#, #eāpse#, equivalent to #ipsa#, &c. So #reāpse# for #rē ipsā#.
THE RELATIVE, INTERROGATIVE, AND INDEFINITE PRONOUN.
(1.) #quī# AND #quis#.
681. The stem #qui-#, or #quo-#, #quā-#, is used in three ways: as a relative, _who_, _which_; as an interrogative, _who? which? what?_ as an indefinite, _any_.
682. (_a._) The relative #quī#, _who_, _which_, is declined as follows:
+--------+---------------------+------------------------+ | | Singular. | Plural. | +--------+---------------------+------------------------+ | | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | MASC. FEM. NEUT. | | _Nom._ | quī quae quod | quī quae quae | | _Gen._ | cuius cuius cuius | quōrum quārum quōrum | | _Dat._ | cui cui cui | quibus quibus quibus | | _Acc._ | quem quam quod | quōs quās quae | | _Abl._ | quō quā quō | quibus quibus quibus | +--------+---------------------+------------------------+
683. (_b._) The interrogative adjective #quī#, #quae#, #quod#, _which? what?_ is declined like the relative #quī# (682).
684. The interrogative substantive has in the nominative singular #quis#, #quid#, _who? what?_ the rest is like #quī# (682).
In old Latin, #quis# is both masculine and feminine, but a separate feminine form #quae# is used three or four times.
685. #quis# interrogative is sometimes used adjectively with appellatives: as, #quis senātor?# _what senator?_ And #quī# is sometimes used substantively: as, #quī prīmus Ameriam nūntiat?# _who is the first to bring the tidings to Ameria?_
686. (_c._) The indefinite #quis# or #quī#, _one_, _any_, has the following forms:
#quis# and #quid# masculine and neuter substantives, #quī# and #quod# adjectives; feminine singular nominative and neuter plural nominative and accusative commonly #qua#, also #quae#. The rest is like #quī# (682).
687. #quis#, #quem#, #quid#, and #quibus# come from the stem #qui-#; the other parts come from #quo-#, #quā-#. #quae# stands for an older #quai# (690). For #quid# and #quod#, see 659.
688. Old forms of the genitive singular are #quoius#, and of the dative #quoiei#, #quoiī#, or #quoi#, also in derivatives of #quī# or #quis#. A genitive plural #quōiūm# is old and rare. The dative and ablative plural is sometimes #quīs# from #quo-#, #quā-#. A nominative plural interrogative and indefinite #quēs# is rare (Pacuv.).
689. The ablative or locative is sometimes #quī#, from the stem #qui-#: as an interrogative, _how?_ as a relative, _wherewith_, _whereby_, masculine, feminine, or neuter, in old Latin sometimes with a plural antecedent; especially referring to an indefinite person, and with #cum# attached, #quīcum#; and as an indefinite, _somehow_.
690. Other case forms of #quī# or #quis# and their derivatives are found in inscriptions, as follows:
N. QVEI, prevalent in republican inscriptions; also QVI; once QVE. G. QVOIVS, regularly in republican inscriptions; CVIIVS, CVIIVS, CVIIVS (23), once QVIVS (20). D. QVOIEI, QVOI; once F. QVAI. Ab. QVEI. Plural: N. M. QVEI, but after 120 B.C., occasionally QVI; QVES, indefinite; F. and Ne. QVAI. G. QVOIVM.
DERIVATIVES OF #quī# AND #quis#.
691. The derivatives of #quī# and #quis# have commonly #quis# and #quid# as substantives, and #quī# and #quod# as adjectives. Forms requiring special mention are named below:
692. #quisquis#, _whoever_, _whatever_, _everybody who_, _everything which_, an indefinite relative, has only these forms in common use: N. M. #quisquis#, sometimes F. in old Latin, Ne. N. and Ac. #quicquid# or #quidquid#, Ab. M. and Ne. as adjective #quōquō#.
Rare forms are: N. M. #quīquī#, Ac. #quemquem#, once Ab. F. #quāquā#, as adverb #quīquī#, once D. #quibusquibus#. A short form of the genitive occurs in #quoiquoimodī# or #cuicuimodī#, _of whatsoever sort_.
#aliquis# or #aliquī#, #aliqua#, once #aliquae# (Lucr.), #aliquid# or #aliquod#, _some one_, _some_; Ab. M. sometimes, Ne. often #aliquī# (689). Pl. Ne. N. and Ac. only #aliqua#; D. and Ab. sometimes #aliquīs# (668).
#ecquis# or #ecquī#, #ecqua# or #ecquae#, #ecquid# or #ecquod#, _any?_ Besides the nominative only these forms are found: D. eccui, Ac. #ecquem#, #ecquam#, #ecquid#, Ab. M. and Ne. #ecquō#. Pl. N. #ecquī#, Ac. M. #ecquōs#, F. #ecquās#.
#quīcumque#, #quaecumque#, #quodcumque#, _whoever_, _whichever_, _everybody who_, _everything which_. The #cumque# is sometimes separated from #quī# by an intervening word. An older form is #quīquomque#, &c.
#quīdam#, #quaedam#, #quiddam# or #quoddam#, _a_, _a certain_, _some one_, _so and so_; Ac. #quendam#, #quandam#. Pl. G. #quōrundam#, #quārundam#.
#quīlibet#, #quaelibet#, #quidlibet# or #quodlibet#, _any you please_.
#quisnam#, rarely #quīnam#, #quaenam#, #quidnam# or #quodnam#, _who ever? who in the world?_ Sometimes #nam quis#, &c.
#quispiam#, #quaepiam#, #quippiam#, #quidpiam# or #quodpiam#, _any_, _any one_; Ab. also #quīpiam# (689), sometimes as adverb, _in any way_.
#quisquam#, #quicquam# or #quidquam#, _anybody at all_, _anything at all_, generally a substantive, less frequently an adjective, _any at all_. There is no distinctive feminine form, and #quisquam# and #quemquam# are rarely, and in old Latin, used as a feminine adjective. Ab. also #quīquam# (689), sometimes as adverb, _in any way at all_. No plural.
#quisque#, #quaeque#, #quicque#, #quidque# or #quodque#, _each_. Sometimes #ūnus# is prefixed: #ūnusquisque#; both parts are declined. #quisque# and #quemque# are sometimes feminine. Ab. S. #quīque# (689) rare, Ab. Pl. #quīsque# (688) once (Lucr.).
#quīvīs#, #quaevīs#, #quidvīs# or #quodvīs#, _which you will_; Ab. also #quīvīs# (689).
(2.) #uter#.
693. #uter#, #utra#, #utrum#, _whether? which of the two?_ has the genitive singular #utrīus#, and the dative singular #utrī#.
The rest is like #aeger# (617). #uter# is sometimes relative, _whichsoever_, or indefinite, _either of the two_.
DERIVATIVES OF #uter#.
694. The derivatives of #uter# are declined like #uter#; they are:
#neuter#, _neither of the two_, genitive #neutrīus#, always with #ī# (657). When used as a grammatical term, _neuter_, the genitive is always #neutrī#: as, #generis neutrī#, _of neither gender_.
#utercumque#, #utracumque#, #utrumcumque#, _whichever of the two_, _either of the two_.
#uterlibet#, _whichever you please_.
#uterque#, _whichsoever_, _both_. G. always #utriusque# (657).
#utervīs#, _whichever you wish_.
#alteruter#, F. #altera utra#, Ne. #alterutrum# or #alterum utrum#, _one or the other_, G. #alterīus utrīus#, once late #alterutrīus#, D. #alterutrī#, Ac. M. #alterutrum# or #alterum utrum#, F. #alterutram# once (Plin.) or #alteram utram#, Ab. #alterutrō# or #alterō utrō#, F. #alterā utrā#. No Pl., except D. #alterutrīs# once (Plin.).
CORRELATIVE PRONOUNS.
695. Pronouns often correspond with each other in meaning and form; some of the commonest correlatives are the following:
Int. Interrogative Indef. Indefinite Dem., Det. Demonstrative, Determinative, &c. Rel. Relative.
+----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+ | Kind. | Int. | Indef. | Dem., Det. | Rel. | +----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+ | Simple | quis, quī, | quis, quī, | hīc, iste, | quī | | Simple | _who?_ | aliquis | ille, is, | | | | | | quisque | | +----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+ | Alter- | uter, _which | uter, | uterque | uter, quī | | native | of the two?_ | alteruter | | | +----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+ | Number | quot, _how | aliquot | tot | quot | | | many?_ (431) | | | | +----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+ | Quantity | quantus, _how | aliquantus, | tantus | quantus | | | large?_ (613)| quantusvīs | | | +----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+ | Quality |quālis, | quālislibet | tālis | quālis | | | _of what | | | | | | sort?_ (630) | | | | +----------+---------------+-------------+------------+-----------+
THE ADVERB, THE CONJUNCTION, AND THE PREPOSITION.
I. NOUNS AS ADVERBS.
696. Adverbs, conjunctions, and prepositions are chiefly noun or pronoun cases which have become fixed in a specific form and with a specific meaning. Many of these words were still felt to be live cases, even in the developed period of the language; with others the consciousness of their noun character was lost.
697. Three cases are used adverbially: the accusative, the ablative, and the locative.
698. The rather indeterminate meaning of the accusative and the ablative is sometimes more exactly defined by a preposition. The preposition may either accompany its usual case: as, #adamussim, admodum, īlicō#; or it may be loosely prefixed, with more of the nature of an adverb than of a preposition, to a case with which it is not ordinarily used: as, #examussim, intereā#. Sometimes it stands after the noun: as, #parumper#, _a little while_. Besides the three cases named above, other forms occur, some of which are undoubtedly old case endings, though they can no longer be recognized as such: see 710.
[Erratum: 698. . invisible]
(1.) ACCUSATIVE.
(_a._) ACCUSATIVE OF SUBSTANTIVES.
699. #domum#, _homeward, home_; #rūs#, _afield_; #forās#, _out of doors_ #(*forā-); vicem#, _instead_; #partim#, _in part_; old #noenum# or #noenu#, common #nōn#, for #ne-oenum#, i.e. #ūnum#, _not one, naught, not_; #admodum#, _to a degree, very_; #adamussim, examussim#, _to a #T#_; #adfatim#, _to satiety_; #invicem#, _in turn, each other_.

(_b._) ABLATIVE OF ADJECTIVES AND PRONOUNS.
704. Many adverbs in #-ō# are formed from adjectives of time: as, #perpetuō#, _to the end_, #crēbrō#, _frequently_, #rārō#, _seldom_, #repentīnō#, _suddenly_, #sērō#, _late_, #prīmō#, _at first_. Many denote manner: as, #arcānō#, _privily_, #sēriō#, _in earnest_. Some are formed from participles: as, #auspicātō#, _with auspices taken_; #compositō#, _by agreement_. A plural is rare: #alternīs#, _alternately_.
705. Instead of #-ō#, neuter ablatives commonly have #-ē#: as, #longē#, _far_, #doctē#, _wisely_. So also superlatives: #facillimē#, _most easily_, anciently FACILVMED (362). Consonant stems have #-e#: as, #repente#, _suddenly_.
