1. Review of 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.
