  5. The Four Uses of the Infinitive 1. Complementary Infinitive (English Word Order = SubjectVerbInfinitive) The man desires to work. Vir laborare desiderat. 2. Subjective Infinitive (Infinitive used as a subject or predicate nominative) It is pleasant to walk. Ambulare est gratum. or Est gratum ambulare. 3. Objective Infinitive (English Word Order = SubjectVerbNoun/PronounInfinitive) The farmer taught the slavesto work. Agricola servoslaborare docuit. (The accusative noun servos in front of the infinitive is called a subject accusative.)

  6. The Four Uses of the Infinitive • Indirect Statement (Indirect Discourse) (Page 278) • In Latin when a simple statement is indirectly quoted, the verb is changed • from the indicative mood in the direct statement to the infinitive in the indirect • statement, and the subject is changed from the nominative to the accusative • case. • Direct statement: Vir ambulat. The man is walking. • Indirect statement: Dicit virum ambulare. He says that the man • is walking. • Difference between English and Latin Indirect Statement • English Latin • The verb is finite. The verb is in the infinitive. • The introductory word that is used. There is no introductory word. • The subject is in the nominative case. The subject is in accusative case.

  7. Nota Bene: (Page 278) Indirect Statements usually follow verbs of mental action, such as say, tell, know, think, hear, perceive, and the like. These verbs should be memorized: dico (3), say, tellscio (4), knownuntio (1), announce, tell puto (1), thinkaudio (4), hearsentio (4), feel, perceive nego (1), say not, denyvideo (2), seeexistimo (1), think Sequence of Tenses for Indirect Statement The present infinitive denotes the same time as the main verb; The perfect infinitive denotes time before that of the main verb; The future infinitive denotes time after that of the main verb.
