Recоgnizing аblаtives Nоw thаt yоu've seen all the noun declensions in Latin, and because ablative absolutes as so common, it's a good idea to be able to quickly identify the ablative (and, for that matter, all cases). Consider adding to your reviews a "synopsis" of the ablative, where instead of reviewing a single declension, you review all of the ablative singulars (e.g. portā-amīcō-dōnō-rēge-corpore-cīve-marī-frūctū-cornū-rē). To augment this, you can combine these forms with participles, to get used to seeing the combinations of nouns and adjectives, for example: first declension: portā laudante/laudantī*, laudātā, laudātūrā ("with the gate praising, having been praised, about to praise") second declension masculine: amīcō laudante/laudantī*, laudātō, laudātūrō ("with the friend praising, having been praised, about to praise") second declension neuter: dōnō laudante/laudantī*, laudātō, laudātūrō ("with the gift praising, having been praised, about to praise") third declension masculine: rēge laudante/laudantī*, laudātō, laudātūrō ("with the king praising, having been praised, about to praise") ... and so on. You can do this for singular and plural; you could also add paradigm adjectives! (magnā portā laudātā, etc.) *a note on the ablative singular in present active participles: although the present active participle declines as an i-stem adjective -- that is, with an -ī in the ablative singular, this often reverts to an -e in the ablative singular, especially when the participle is in a participle construction (rather than being used descriptively). In other words, look out for these forms ending in either -ī (e.g. laudantī) or -e (e.g. laudante)!
