Question

how do u memorize the different case like genetive.. 4 noun
and 4 verbs too.

i only learned nom, dat,acc, gen, abl

im meant the ending
like ancilla goes to ancillam

Answer 1

You're only missing Vocative.

Nominative: the case for the subject of the sentence (I)
Genetive: the case that expresses possession (MINE; OF ME)
Dative: the case of the indirect object, and the most common instance of the indirect object is the person "to or for whom" something is given (TO ME)
Accusative: the case for the direct object of transitive verbs (ME)
Ablative: the most complex of the cases in Latin. It may be used by itself or as the object of prepositions and it is commonly used to express ideas translated into English by the prepositions "from", "with" and "by", and "in" (FROM ME)
Vocative: the case used when you address someone directly (YOU!)

I remember it this stupid way:
Hey, Vocative! Genetive's Nominative gave an Accusative to Dative, but really it should have been from Ablative.

Replacing words: Hey Jerk! Billy's brother gave the Tootsie Roll to Sally, but it really should have been from me.

To memorize 4 nouns, just remember the endings.

...and remember to CONJUGATE verbs - not DECLINE them.

Answer 2

This is exactly how you memorize the diff rent case like genitive... 4 nouns and 4 verbs OK.... now you can take my advice or you could leave it but this is what helped me on it OK.... the way I would memorize it by is making flash cards and I am going to take you step by step trust me OK... here we go... first you take all the words and you wright it on a sprat flash card and if you don't know how to pronounce it you ask some one to show you and write it down a flash card and then after that you take a separate flash card and put what means in English and if you do this you should get the hang of it . trust me.

Answer 3

Make a song; it always helped me in latin.

If you aren't feeling creative (like I use to be at times) Then do what I did. Write it ALLL over a sheet of paper (literally; all over; until the entire paper is covered in it!) by the time your done writing it and repeating its meaning to yourself you'll know it by heart.

Answer 4

I think you have probably answered your own question. Memorization is simply that...........memorization.
