[@missnoran1999]

[@lillianpertrelli1096]

[@a12fe154]

bro saved my Latin grade

[@mikesteele5935]

Brilliant. This put many pieces together for me.

[@curtpiazza1688]

Great! Love the "NT" for preseNT trick!

[@SaylorRoush]

just noticed this, but we could do another trick and mentally make '-ns' stand for Nominative Singular

[@dannyallen2894]

I've been learning about ablative absolute today, so now here I am

[@daesungkim5708]

You helped me out alot this year as a latin 1 student. Thank you so much :)

[@adanvega7493]

Can't wait watch your new lessons!

[@franklinshouse8719]

Thanks for these videos! They are great!

[@vusumzingceke6518]

I am very new to Latin. I absolutely love it. Thankfully, my Greek makes it easy to understand since there are a lot of similarities. The participles work like those of Greek from what I see here. By the way, That "...aut....aut..." construction just reminded me of the Greek "...ειte...ειτε..." construction.

[@elladeaton1378]

I'm very interested in learning Latin and have been watching your videos for about two weeks now, and they are by far the best resource I've found! I was wondering if there was a specific book that you use for classes or would just recommend that I could buy to further supplement my learning. Maybe just a latin dictionary? Thanks so much!

[@latintutorial]

I think you need a textbook that can help you through a specific curriculum, and give you more examples and practice than I am able to. I use the Cambridge Latin Course in my own classes, but you may find Wheelock's or Learn to Read Latin more at your level. See if you can borrow them from a library before you buy. All teach Latin well, but your own particular learning style makes a lot of difference. Then my videos make a great supplemental resource.

[@elladeaton1378]

latintutorial Thank you so much!

[@michalsextion9664]

If you haven't yet, try Ecce Romani or Disce. They help learn the language through vocab and grammar, and then get progressively harder as you progress.

[@nirda788]

You are literally getting me through my GCSEs

[@joseantoniobenlopez3240]

Enhorabuena por el vídeo.

[@farhanaditya2647]

Minor mistake: the "o" in "laborāre" should be long (labōrāre). Anyway, your video is so easily understandable as always. Multās gråtiās tibi!

[@Rehan-pd7md]

Lovely video! Thank you for this!

[@surabhisugandh]

this is great!! thank you.

[@LandgraabIV]

Could you please upload one about Latin enclitics? Like -que, -ve and -ne? I love your channel!

[@yanqinghuang8390]

Hi, can you do a latin tutorial on the future participles and gerunds/gerundives? Your videos are always helpful and I learn a lot from them :) Thank you =)

[@latintutorial]

YanQing Huang Yes! There should be some coming out in the next few weeks on future active and future passive participles.

[@tommydarnell9465]

+YanQing Huang I like ur name!!!

[@legaleagle46]

There's no such verb form as the perfect active participle. All perfect participles in Latin are passive only.

[@loafdupain]

facts

[@johnsonsrigiri657]

I religiously follow you Mr Johnson! May I gently say the participle in its nominative plural form 'intrantes' instead of intrentem, seems to qualify the boys rather than the house. It is the 'entering boys' or 'boys who are entering' entrantes pueri are greeting; or you may have to change to intrantem to qualify villam.

[@Galaxyexplorer7]

so can I translate "always searching harmony and peace" as "semper quaerentes constantiam et pacem"?(great video, btw)

[@TimeTravelingAltair1337]

When would you use a participle purely as an adjective in Latin: like "the dying man" I'm confused with the Present Active participle, do you use it as an adjective like the above sentence or is it used to express action at the same of the main verb kind of like a relative clause.

[@legaleagle46]

I believe you can use it both ways.

[@kerryhill9749]

The imperfect tense is involved in this , is it not ?

[@entwistlefromthewho]

And on the other end of the spectrum, Welsh has no participles at all!

[@SamoriahGames]

When should we use the participle over the infinitive in accusative constructions? Couldn't "video Socratem currentem" be just as easily replaced by "video Socratem currere?"

[@latintutorial]

Good question, but I think the number of situations like that is a lot smaller than you think, since they require a main verb of seeing/thinking. To your example: with the participle, the emphasis is really on Socrates, "I see Socrates as he is running", while the acc+inf construction relays the action (Socrates is running) indirectly (I see that that is the case).

[@Channel-zb1fi]

Why is it an -e and not a long i in the ablative form?

[@Unidentifying]

intriguing, thank you

[@GG4EVA623]

[@vladimirvalenwood3334]

can someone teach me Latin? So then I can teach it to my kids. I would hate to see this beautiful language die out. I'm sure it won't my lifetime but just to say

[@ecavalcantes]

Curioso que no português, o nosso particípio é o do passado. O particípio presente não sobreviveu na nossa língua.

[@felipelakatos728]

Sobreviveu só em algumas palavras terminadas em -ante, -ente, -inte, como termos em si, por exemplo amante, ouvinte, pedinte, corrente, potente etc. Mas não funcionam mais como um particípio presente, são palavras derivadas de verbos mas não consideradas formas verbais, além de que não dá pra formar de qualquer verbo como em latim (tipo sainte de sair ou tentante de tentar não existem).

Classical Latin... -_- newbs

[@mougaitot9349]

What latin is this exactly? Classic? Or vulgar?

[@latintutorial]

Restored classical pronunciation, but the language is the same no matter how you pronounce it.

[@mougaitot9349]

latintutorial Do you mean both latin form may be equally understood?

[@latintutorial]

I may have misunderstood. This channel focuses on literary Latin from around 100 BC to roughly that of AD 200-300. Although technically, Latin grammar from later is the same, vocabulary and pronunciation will be different.

[@felipe.canever.fernandes]

Shouldn't "docens" be "docēns" instead?

[@latintutorial]

I've adopted the standard from the Oxford Latin Dictionary, which doesn't mark long vowels when they are followed by two consonants. It's also the standard followed by ETS, the company which makes the SAT Latin and AP exam. But yes, the e in docens is long.

[@felipe.canever.fernandes]

latintutorial I see, thank you. Although I'll keep marking those vowels so I don't forget. xD

[@yvanspijk]

***** The problem is, due to confusion between vowel length and syllable length, many dictionaries and grammars wrongly believe all vowels before two consonants magically become long in any case, and for convenience's sake they choose not to mark any long vowel in that position. However, there are quite a few words that do have long vowels before consonant clusters, like āctus, cōmptus, nūllus, etc. and all vowels before -ns and -nf, like cōnsul and the nominative of present participles: docēns. Great video! :)

[@felipe.canever.fernandes]

Good to know that. Thank you for the advice.

[@latintutorial]

I don't disagree about this, and I spent a lot of time thinking about what standard to adopt. Since the OLD is a good resource, and since there is some debate about long marks on some words (e.g., hic, haec, hoc), I decided to defer to the OLD. It does make it hard to determine proper pronunciation, though, and I apologize for that.

[@matthewblum8522]

Great
