I. Nouns and adjectives endings in GENITIVE plural

 

The Latin nounshave Genitive plural endings as follows:

 

Declension
Endings of Genitive plural - ārum - ōrum - um, - ĭum - ŭum - ērum

E.g.: vena, ae f - venārum;

nervus, i m - nervōrum;

cornu, us n - cornŭum;

Attention!!! -Adjectives of the 1st group and adjectives in the superlative degree are declined on the pattern of the 1st and 2nd declensions (feminines – 1st declension, masculines and neuters – 2nd declension).

E.g.: longus, a, um - longōrum, ārum, ōrum

maxĭmus, a, um – maximōrum, ārum, ōrum

II. Particularities of the Genitive plural formation in the 3rd declension.

The following nouns of the 3rd declension end by –um:

1) the so-called imparisyllaba, i.e. the nouns that have unequal number of syllables in Nominative and Genitive, which stem is terminated by one consonant:

E.g.: forāmen, ĭnis n - foramĭn-um;

pulmo, ōnis m - pulmōn-um;

pes, pedis m - ped-um.

2) adjectives in comparative degree:

E.g: anterior, ius - anteriōr-um.

The following nouns of the 3rd declension end by –ium:

· rete, is n – retium
