The Latin Relative Pronoun: qui, quae, quod

  • Опубліковано 10 чер 2024
  • The relative clause, which is introduced by the pronoun qui, quae, quod (who, which), is likely the most common subordinate clause in all of Latin. It even makes an appearance in the first line of Vergil's Aeneid, and in the first sentence of Caesar's Gallic War. This video gives a introduction to its declension and use in a basic Latin sentence.

    Hi LatinTutorial. I know that this video is about relative pronouns but I hoped that you might help me with an indirect question question, which relates to pronouns.
    I am trying to say the following in Latin:
    'These men had between themselves endless debates concerning who was the braver centurion.'
    So far, I have this:
    'hi viri inter se controversias perpetuas habebant de quis centurio fortior esset.'
    Does this look correct to you? I was a little unsure about 'quis' because it follows the preposition 'de', but I am fairly sure that the subject, in this instance, the interrogative pronoun, in this indirect question has to be nominative because it cannot have its case governed by verbs or prepositions outside its own clause. Is my Latin above right?

    • @latintutorial
      @latintutorial  2 роки тому

      You’re right to be a bit concerned about the de. It doesn’t fit here since you are working with a clause, not just a noun phrase (e.g., de locis summis, about the highest positions). This sentence recalls a famous one in Caesar’s Gallic War, book 5, which might be of good use to see the use of the indirect question. “Hi perpetuas inter se controversias habebant, quinam anteferretur”. Note the use of quinam there.

    We recently purchased a medieval apartment in Italy above my art gallery [see UA-cam's Dolcedo Art of the Thunderbolt Ground-floor & Mezzanine for Latin graffiti > some very naughty fr. Catullus], adjoining I now know a huge burial-pit where thousands of typhus corpses were put, so as to decant some of my huge library and to continue to sit, read, learn and write. I've been writing for 60 years and so my book is enormous and it is probably one of the largest illustrated volumes on earth. I daily lug large artworks and books uphill as a necessity, muttering predicative datives and-or perfect principal parts [etc] in an attempt to drive them into my skull. Latin is a nice hobby and the Romans conquered the Ligurians in 105 BC, forcing them to change their god, Bergamo, to Diana, but the Ligurians refused a female deity and preferred to worship a hybrid Diano - hence, hopefully, you'll be pleased to know your influence returns Latin back among the primitive hordes of Liguria, albeit in the ruder forms of Martial, Apuleius et al.

    • @latintutorial
      @latintutorial  3 роки тому +2

      In part based on my own native language, I have to allow for an imperfect of pronunciation. That said, it's perfectly acceptable to treat liquids (that would be the L and R) differently than other consonants, and allow them to combine with certain previous consonants (like T, D, C, F, etc.). We know this to be the case because poetry has rules that expect us to treat TR (for instance) as one consonantal sound.

      You can, but it changes the meaning from "my friend who is visiting me" to something like, "my friend, who would (be the sort of person to) visit me". You would also use the subjunctive with the relative pronoun to show purpose, in the sense of, "mittitur amīcus, quī mē vīsitet,", "my friend is sent to visit me."
