Usages of casus
Hodie magistra dicit quattuor casus huius lectionis esse nominativum, accusativum, dativum, et ablativum.
Today the teacher says that the four cases of this lesson are the nominative, accusative, dative, and ablative.
Sic discipuli paulatim discunt non solum verba memoria tenere, sed etiam intellegere cur unus casus potius quam alius, cur singularis potius quam pluralis, et cur indicativus potius quam imperativus in unaquaque sententia ponatur.
Thus the students gradually learn not only to keep words in memory, but also to understand why one case rather than another, why singular rather than plural, and why the indicative rather than the imperative is used in each sentence.
Magistra dicit: “Casus genetivus possessionem ostendit.”
The teacher says: “The genitive case shows possession.”
