Ability, obligation, intention and command often need a second verb to complete the thought. Possum, dēbeō, cōnor and jubeō show those relationships in different ways, with construction notes that belong on the vocabulary card. Coepī already means began or have begun; it is not an ordinary present-tense headword. Jungō and conjungō provide a concrete joining pair among these more abstract expressions. Mandō and imperō also carry dative notes for the person involved, so English command should not prompt an automatic accusative. Challenge II week 19 checks both grammatical understanding and clear rendering through discussion of translated passages. Before continuing, locate a dependent infinitive, distinguish owing from being able, and recognise the past meaning already present in coepī. Being able to explain who is ordered or entrusted with something is a stronger check than merely recalling the first gloss.
