So, Job hunting was a no go...I can never seem to get off my lazy...
Anyways, latin.
let's start with an overview on verbs, and the Present Indicative Active
Most latin verbs have four principle parts, Let us take the verb monere;
moneo, monere, monui, monitum - "to advise"
To conjugate this verb we use the second part of the verb, called the infinative, and we cut off the "ere".
moneo - I advise monemus - we advise
mones - you advise monetis - you (pl) advise
monet - he/she it advises monent - they advise
The imperative of monere in the Present Active Imperative is
mone - Advise! singular
Monete - Advise! plural
Imperatives are used for giving commands.
I will leave some sentences for those who want some;
1) Quid videtis? Nihil videmus
2) Apollo me servat
3) Quid debemus cogitare?
4) Mone me, si erro.
I am not perfect, and I am writing this very exhausted. If there are ANY errors please feel free to correct me 3nodding or any other information regarding the Present Indicative Active only (for now) that any of you want to add, please do.
Questions? let me know.
And of course, feel free to post the answers to the sentences!

I'm going to put up a summary of all the declensions and some conjugations when I get back from having lunch with the serbian mafia. The above was probably an insult to any latin reader xd

John Calvin I have a question. Does quid mean "thing" or "something"? It's my favorite Latin word. sweatdrop Interrogative pronoun, I always thought. "Who?" or "what?" By some streak of fortune a rat ran over my keyboard and turned "who" into pen0r. Odd.

SilverD is right, it is an interrogative pronoun...
here's the chart for the declining of quis quid qui
Singular plural
Quis quid qui quae quae
cuius cuius quorum quarum quorum
cui cui quibus quibus quibus
quem quid quos quaas quae
quo quo quibus quibus quibus
Masc+fem N M F N
As you can see Richard, depending on the context of a sentence, quid can take a lot of forms.

Well, I was just wondering, because I saw a Latin word, tertium quid, which means, "third thing." That now reminds me of the other word, quid pro quo. gonk

Jussive is a command/exhortation given in third person, Hortatory is when it's given in the first person.

Jussive is a command/exhortation given in third person, Hortatory is when it's given in the first person. No I know that now, we just called them different things. But I absolutely HATE deponents... I jump all over the place when I am typing, you will soon realise this xd

so amemus is the "whoratory" in fact. wink gratias Slayer, i apologize for implying that they were the same. Though the semantic difference between
eam ad forum ire "let me go to the forum"
and exeat ex forum "let him go from the form "
is slight.
Damn the subjuncitve and it's "not yet real aspects!"
But who am i to argue with centuries of learned philology. smile
