So subjects can have plurals just like any other caseBut

Ancilla urbem occupat means The slave girl attacks the city.

Ancillae urbem occupant means The slave girls attack the city.

The verb reflects the fact that the subject is now plural. So

servus tauros agebat andservi tauros agebant

dux aurum celaverat andduces aurum celaverant

puer accedebat ut aquam biberet and

pueri accedebant ut aquam biberent

!!But there are some glitches!!

Filius flumen spectavitFilii flumen spectaveruntDux crimen fecitDuces crimen feceruntPater corpora tulitPatres corpora tulerunt

Magister verbum docebit.Magistri verbum docebunt.Latro donum mittit.Latrones donum mittunt.

Irregulars use that –untfert becomes feruntit becomes euntvult becomes voluntpotest becomes possunt

Glitch 2 and ½: Irregulars use -unt

Magus corpus sepelit. (sepelio)

Magi corpus sepeliunt.Miles signa rapit. (rapio)Milites signa rapiunt.

Urbs occupabaturUrbes occupabanturFrater mittiturFratres mittunturCarmen audieturCarmina audientur

While the third principle part is used for the active perfect forms

Miles arborem fregitMilites arborem fregeruntThe passive forms are made from the fourth principle part (the past participle passive) plus a helping verb. And both those forms need to show plural endings.

• arbor ab milite fracta est. (arbor is fem.)

• arbores ab milite fractae sunt.• dux ab hostibus latus erat. (dux is mas.)

• duces ab hostibus lati erant.• carmen ab poeta scriptum est. (carmen

• carmina ab poeta scripta sunt. is neu.)
