Movement and measurement belong together in this reading vocabulary. Eō and its compounds distinguish going toward, out of, into and across; the infinitives keep the family resemblance visible. Pair each with a directional arrow before practising the irregular principal parts. Hōra and diēs measure time, while pēs and passus can measure distance. Mīlle is indeclinable, but mīlia is a plural noun that changes form, and the supplied mīlle passūs expression gives a mile. Challenge II week 14 practises the irregular going verbs through active translation and historical discussion. Before moving on, recognise a compound from its infinitive rather than only its headword, distinguish time from distance, and recall the different grammatical behaviour of mīlle and mīlia. A familiar English number does not remove the need to examine how the Latin quantity fits the sentence.
Forms in this lesson: irregular verbs (5), 5th-declension nouns (1), 1st-declension nouns (1), 4th-declension nouns (1), 3rd-declension nouns (1).
In the Classical Conversations schedule, this lesson's vocabulary is assigned in Challenge II, week 14.
Adeō means go to, approach or visit; trānseō means go across or pass. Preserve the direction of movement.
