03.12.24: Level 1; Maxey [18] (1)

Complete the Latin text using the English translation and with the words listed below.

"[1] __________ Aliquid [2] __________. [3] __________ aliquid? Multī virī per viās [4] __________; multī equī [5] __________. Sunt carrī quoque et in carrīs multae rēs [6] __________. [7] __________ mīlitēs quoque et in manibus mīlitum sunt tēla. Quī sunt hī mīlitēs? Ad quem locum [8] __________? [9] __________. Ibi prope nostram domum [10] __________."

[1] Listen! [2] I hear something. [3] Do you hear something? Many men [4] are running through the streets; many horses [5] are coming. There are also wagons and many things [6] are being carried in the wagons. [7] There are also soldiers and in the soldiers’ hands are weapons. Who are these soldiers? To which place [8] are they going? [9] See! There near our house [10] they’re coming.

vidē; audiō; veniunt; sunt; currunt; eunt; portantur; veniunt; audīsne; audī

Note:

Multae rēs portantur │many things are being carried; look out for this ending which is used to indicate the passive voice

The passive voice is used when the subject of the sentence is not performing the action but the action is being done to the subject:

Mīlitēs multās rēs portant │ The soldiers are carrying many things = active sentence

Multae rēs in carrīs portantur │ Many things are being carried in the wagons = passive sentence

"Audī. Aliquid audiō. Audīsne aliquid? Multī virī per viās currunt; multī equī veniunt. Sunt carrī quoque et in carrīs multae rēs portantur. Sunt mīlitēs quoque et in manibus mīlitum sunt tēla. Quī sunt hī mīlitēs? Ad quem locum eunt? Vidē. Ibi prope nostram domum veniunt."
