1 Noun Declensions 1st: mostly feminine, with a few masculine.
ancilla, poēta, aqua 2nd: masculine (-us) or neuter (-um) dominus, servus, templum, ātrium 3rd: all genders; usually with one stem in the nominative (with neuters, nominative and accusative) and another for the other cases leō, leōnis; mīles, mīlitis; custōs, custōdis 4th: masculine (-us) and neuter (-ū) gradus, portus, cornu 5th: feminine, except for diēs, which can be masculine or feminine

2 Dictionary Entries The dictionary will give you the nominative singular, genitive singular and gender of a noun. To save space, the genitive singular can be abbreviated: ancilla, ancillae f. OR ancilla, -ae f. dominus, dominī m. OR dominus, dominī m. mīles, mīlitis m. OR mīles, -itis m. The genitive singular lets you know how the stem changes in a 3rd declension noun and also tells you if a noun in –us is 2nd or 4th declension servus, -ī m. v. portus, -ūs m. The vocabulary at the back of Cambridge Book 1 gives you the accusative singular instead because the genitive is not introduced until Book 2.

3 General Tips The accusative singular in masculine and feminine nouns always ends in –m dominum, ancillam, mercātōrem The accusative plural of masculine and feminine nouns always ends in -s dominōs, ancillās, montēs The genitive plural always ends in -um dominōrum, ancillārum, montium The dative and ablative plural are always the same and end in –īs or –bus cum ancillīs, cum dominīs, sine mīlitibus, omnibus crēdite The neuter nominative and accusative are always the same forum est pulchrum, forum spectāmus The neuter nominative/accusative plural always ends in –a computātra nōn sunt animālia (so a word ending in –a isn’t always a singular, 1st declension noun)
