Passive Verbs
2
All verbs in Latin have 5 qualities. So far you know three: person, number, tense Verbs also have VOICE (active or passive) * Basic Active endings:-o-mus -s-tis -t-nt Basic Passive Endings-r-mur -ris-mini -tur-ntur
3
The ACTIVE VOICE is used with the SUBJECT performs the action of the verb. Dominus iratus servum verberat. The angry master beats the slave
4
The PASSIVE VOICE is used when the subject receives the action instead of performing it. Servus a domino irato verberatur. The slave is beaten by the angry master. A person (or animal) performing the action in a passive construction takes the ABLATIVE case in a construction called the ABLATIVE OF AGENT (uses the preposition a/ab)
