SYNTAX RULES 17-18

  1. Infinitive of Purpose. When the Infinitive in English expresses a purpose, it is generally translated by ut with the Subjunctive — never by the Infinitive; examples:
  1. I fight to save my life, or I fight that I may save my life, Pugno ut vitam meam conservem.
  2. I fought to save my life, or I fought that I might save my life, Pugnavi ut vitam meam conservarem.

17b. Not in negative commands. Not in negative commands or entreaties is always ne; as, Ne oves terreamus, Let us not frighten the sheep.

  1. Genitive of duty. A Genitive is sometimes so used that mark, duty, business, or part may be supplied; as, Discipuli est discere, It is (the duty) of a scholar to learn.
