VI. Neuter Nouns and Substantive Nouns - Latin in Layman's (REVAMPED)
from Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution · host Liam Connerly
Here, I get into the second declension neuter gender and the concept of substantive nouns. Why get into it? Because the more you know, the more you know! I get into a couple side tangents at both the beginning and end of this episode. Feel free to fast forward. Ask yourself... Why are they called substantives? Might look like "substance?" I dunno though... Here’s an example of a second-declension neuter noun: bellum, a word which means “war.” Let’s decline it together: Bellum Belli Bello Bellum Bello Bella Bellorum Bellis Bella Bellis
