This lesson contains 10 verbs, 6 nouns, 4 adverbs, 2 phrases, 2 pronouns, 1 particle, 1 adjective and 1 conjunction.
The verbs are now listed as vocabulary headwords rather than only ready-made third-person forms. Group parō, portō and pugnō by meaning as well as sound: preparing, carrying and fighting are different actions despite the similar beginnings. Laudō and ōrō reconnect with the forms learned near the start of the book. Dō needs its own attention because its principal parts are given explicitly. Questions also become easier to recognise through cūr, quis, ubi and the attached particle -ne. Challenge A returns to this lesson in weeks 13 and 16–18, moving through first-conjugation practice and question formation. B uses weeks 9–10 for verb and tense comparisons; I reaches the list in week 3. Before Lesson 10, retrieve the action behind each verb, recognise a question marker, and avoid treating a dictionary headword as the only form you will meet in a sentence.
Forms in this lesson: 1st-conjugation verbs (9), 3rd-declension nouns (3), 2nd-declension nouns (3), 1st/2nd-declension adjectives (1), irregular verbs (1).
In the Classical Conversations schedule, this lesson's vocabulary is assigned in Challenge A, weeks 13, 16, 17 and 18, Challenge B, weeks 9 and 10 and Challenge I, week 3.
It attaches to another word to mark a question. It does not supply an English content word such as who or why.
Associate parō with getting ready and portō with carrying a load. Test the meanings from the Latin forms in a mixed order.
