Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution

Latin in Layman's - Gerunds and Gerundives


Listen Later

There are four important rules to remember in this chapter: 

(1) Gerunds are verbal nouns; gerundives are verbal adjectives. 

(2) Gerunds and gerundives are formed like future passive participles. 

(3) Where English will use a gerund followed by an object, Latin will use a gerundive modifying a noun. 

(4) There are two types of gerundive purpose constructions: 

1) ad, plus an accusative noun, plus an accusative gerundive; 

2) a genitive noun, plus a genitive gerundive, plus causā.
