Salvēte, sodālēs.
In Lesson 37 we met the the relative pronouns quī and quae. Both pronouns can be translated as ‘who’. Allow me to refresh your memory:
Quī is masculine (referring to nouns that end in -us or -r).
Quis est puer qui rīdet? Puer quī rīdet est Mārcus. Who is the boy who laughs? The boy who laughs is Marcus.
Quae is feminine (referring to nouns that end in -a).
Quae est puella quae plōrat? Puella quae plōrat est Iūlia. Who is the girl who cries? The girl who cries is Julia.
In today’s reading we will meet quod. Quod is the equivalent of quī or quae for neuter nouns (nouns that end in -um). It appears in the sentence : Mēdus baculum, quod (which) in mēnsā est, videt.
Now READ lines 75-78, in which you will finally learn the answer to that all important question : Quis habet pecūniam Iūliī? Apologies for all these short readings. I promise you that Lesson 47 will provide a much longer passage for you to enjoy.
