Usages of indicativus
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.
