LESSON XCIII

THE VOCATIVE CASE

USE OF THE VOCATIVE CASE

539. In speaking directly to a person, one often uses either the name of the person addressed, or some other noun which refers to him. Thus, John, where do you live? Boy, what street is this? In these sentences the words John and boy denote the persons addressed. A word thus used is in the Vocative case.

FORM OF THE VOCATIVE

540. The vocative has the same form as the nominative, except in the singular number of -us nouns of the second declension. These have a special vocative form ending in -e. Thus, the vocative singular of servus is serve, that of amicus is amīce, that of Marcus is Marce. The vocative plural is always the same as the nominative plural.

THE VOCATIVE OF ADJECTIVES

541. Adjectives ending in -us also have a vocative in -e in the masculine singular. Thus, magne, bone, cāre are the masculine singular vocative forms of magnus, bonus, and carus. All other vocative forms of adjectives are the same as the nominative in the corresponding number and gender.

THE VOCATIVE OF MEUS

542. The possessive adjective meus has the vocative mi in the masculine singular. Its other vocative forms are regular: Mi amice, my friend.

POSITION OF THE VOCATIVE

543. A word in the vocative regularly stands after one or more words of the sentence in which it occurs.

Ubi, Mārce, pater tuus est, Mark, where is your father?
