Latin I introduces students to the basics of Latin grammar, syntax, and vocabulary. Students will be introduced to the six indicative active tenses of first, second, third, third ‐io, and fourth conjugations, as well as those same tenses of the irregular verbs sum and possum. Students will meet the present, imperfect, and future indicative passive tenses of first and second conjugations. The present infinitives, active and passive, will also be presented. Students will also learn about first, second, and third declension nouns; first, second, and third declension adjectives; special ‐ius adjectives; the reflexive adjective; interrogative adjectives; demonstratives; and numbers. Personal pronouns, reflexive pronouns, relative pronouns, and interrogative pronouns will also be taught.
