Dative Case Look at the following sentences: Mandata servis dabat. He was giving orders to the slaves. Omnia Marco explicavit. He explained everything to Marcus. Cornelius fabulam uxori narravit. Cornelius told the story to his wife.

Nouns: Dative or Ablative: You will have noticed that the dative and ablative cases often have identical endings, e.g. servo, puellis, militibus. How are you to tell which case is used in a particular sentence? The Latin will usually provide clues to help you decide correctly. 1.Is the noun preceded by a preposition? If it is, the noun will be in the ablative case because no preposition governs the dative case. 2.If there is no preposition, does the noun refer to a person? If it does, it will normally be in the dative because nouns referring to persons are usually governed by prepositions if they are in the ablative. If the noun refers to a thing, it is more likely to be ablative rather than dative.

Activity 4:Identify each as dative or ablative and then translate the entire sentence: 1. Septimus omnia de Aulo mortuo civibus explicavit. 2. Mihi necesse est equis meis cibum dāre. 3. Marcus ramo lupum repellit.
