Several entries on this page invite another verb to complete their meaning. Possum tells you someone can do something; iubeō introduces an order; oportet expresses what ought to happen impersonally. Read the construction notes with the glosses, since English alone can conceal the accusative-and-infinitive relationship after iubeō. Cōnsuēscō needs care too: its perfect cōnsuēvī can describe having become accustomed and therefore being accustomed now. The adjectives adversus and proximus have dative notes worth retaining. Challenge I spreads this vocabulary across weeks 18–20, combining questions from exercises with translation discussion. Try locating each governing expression and the infinitive depending on it before arranging English clauses. Before moving on, distinguish ability, command and obligation, recognise the impersonal shape of oportet, and keep a construction note as firmly in memory as the first English meaning of its headword.
Forms in this lesson: 1st/2nd-declension adjectives (2), 3rd-conjugation verbs (2), 3rd-declension nouns (2), 2nd-conjugation verbs (1), irregular verbs (1), 1st-declension nouns (1).
In the Classical Conversations schedule, this lesson's vocabulary is assigned in Challenge I, weeks 18, 19 and 20.
The verb is used in the third-person singular to express obligation, rather than naming an ordinary personal subject. English often uses ought or it is necessary.
Its construction can include an accusative naming the person ordered and an infinitive naming the action. The gloss order alone does not show that structure.
