Is, eа, id usаge 1: prоnоun We meet is, eа, id as the third persоn pronoun in both the singular and the plural, and this is a very common usage, for example: Hunc virum laudābāmus; is est meus pater. Istae fēminae multa bona dē Caesare dīcēbant. Caesar eīs dōna pulchra dābat. Cōnsilium tyrannī audiet, sed id nōn laudābit. In each of these instances, the underlined pronoun refers to the noun phrases in bold, and will refer back to them using the English pronouns you would expect: "He is my father", "Caesar was giving beautiful gifts to them", "he will not praise it". A common mistake made by beginning Latin students, however, is the mistranslation or misidentification of pronouns based solely on their gender. Remember that gender is not determined by the "natural" gender of the words, so things -- whether physical, inanimate objects or abstract concepts like "love", "freedom", or "opinion" -- can be in the masculine and feminine genders. This means that when masculine and feminine pronouns refer to these things, which they must in order to be grammatically consistent, they will be translated by the neuter pronoun in English. Consider the following examples: Poētae amōrem in carminibus saepe laudant. Dīcunt: "Is est bellus!" Cōnsulēs lībertātem populō dābunt. Sine eā, nōn valēbant. In these sentences, the pronouns refer back to abstract nouns in the masculine (amōr, amōris) and feminine (lībertās, -ātis). The underlined pronouns refer to these because they have the same case and number, but both pronouns will be translated "it": "It is charming!"; "Without it, they were not strong."
