EXERCISES FOR PRACTICE. 



WE now give several exercises for practice, which illustrate, in 

 a great measure, the remarks on the uso of tho verbs in pro- 

 ceding lessons. 



VOCABULARY. 



A catallo, on horse- 1 Circostanza, 

 back. stance. 



Adunque, then, there- 

 fore. 



Ai nove, on the ninth. 



Awertire, to advise, 

 inform. 



Atione, action, deed. 



Cominciare, * to begin, 

 commence, [party. 

 Compaynia, company, 

 Conto, account (rcn- 

 dere conto di, to 

 give an account of) . 



diligence, 

 [care. 



Diligetua, 

 Ellu.t you. 

 Pico, fig. 

 Finire, to finish. 

 Giovanni, John. 

 Impedire, to impede, 



hinder, prevent. 

 Invifare, to invite. 



Active Verbs conjugated by avert require their participles to agree 

 in numtiT and gender with the accusative case (object) which they 

 govern, and which, along with the nominative case (subject), precedes 

 them: for example, i rersi che h6 fdtti, ve It ho Ittti J the verses that I 

 have niiulo, have I read them to you ? igli ci ha inoifufi, he has invited 

 us ; fsnii Idlla MM, to I' ho veduta balldre, she dances well, I have seen 

 her duuciug. In these examples fatli agrees with i vrrai ch, IMl with 

 li (them), inm'lafi with ci, and veduta with la (her), because the nomi- 

 natives (in the first example to, which is understood before ho) and 

 accusatives precede the participles, and tho latter govern the accu- 

 sative, as, for example, is seen in the questions Whom haa he inviUd t 

 u*. H'hom have I seen t her (when she danced). When the nomi- 

 native, or subject, follows the verb, the participle remain* unchanged, 

 and in most cotes it u not changed, when the accusative, or object, 

 follows : for example, le fatiche che hunno tofferto \ tolddti, the hard- 

 ships which the soldiers have suffered ; il fratfllo ho cri(to dut 

 Ifttere, the brother has written two letters. So/erto does not agree 

 with/ud'che, nor ncritto with letter*, because the nominative toldati and 

 the accusative Uftere follow the verb. 



t In Italian, to address politely, Ella (literally, the) must b" used. 

 Out of Tuscany they also say Lti for lia.

 fra-tol-lo ha di-se-gna-ta e-ra bel-lis-ri-ma. 21. A-vc-to man* 



Those verbs which end in ciore, yian, and teiar* drop the rowel i 

 in all tenses where it meets with i or e : for example, KMyrri for 



t See first not* in the preceding column. 



t When both ;li, to him, and U, to her or (in sddreMfaf politely) to 

 you, happen to meet with one of the pronouns to. la, U, le, , they 

 are for the sake of euphony changed into ylitlo, flWta, it to him, it to 

 her, it to you ; gtieli, fit*!*, thorn to him, them to her. them to yon ; 

 and glitnt, some to him, some to her. some to yon (or of rt, of them. 

 to him. to her, to you). The sense of the passage U the only guide 

 in such nnsee.
