Sample Saxony Abitur Latin Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to test your Saxony Abitur Latin exam readiness. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1In the phrase "multitudo urbium" ("a multitude of cities"), what is the case and number of "urbium" (from urbs, urbis, f.)?
A.Genitive plural
B.Dative plural
C.Accusative plural
D.Ablative singular
Explanation: Urbs is a 3rd-declension i-stem noun, so its genitive plural is urbium (not urbum). After a word of quantity such as multitudo, Latin requires the partitive genitive: multitudo urbium = "a multitude of cities".
2In the phrase "salus rei publicae", meaning "the safety of the state", what case is "rei publicae"?
A.Genitive singular
B.Dative singular
C.Nominative plural
D.Ablative singular
Explanation: Res is a 5th-declension noun (res, rei, rei, rem, re). The form "rei" serves as both genitive and dative singular, but the sense "the safety OF the state" fixes it as a genitive dependent on salus.
3"Dux milites hortatur." What does "hortatur" mean, and why?
A."he encourages" — hortor is a deponent verb: passive in form, active in meaning
B."he is encouraged" — the ending -tur is always passive in meaning
C."he will encourage" — -tur is a future marker
D."he had encouraged" — -tur marks the pluperfect
Explanation: Hortor, hortari, hortatus sum is a deponent verb (Deponens). It has only passive endings but is translated actively. Hortatur is 3rd person singular present, so the sentence means "The leader encourages the soldiers" — milites is the accusative object.
4Which of these verbs is a SEMI-deponent (Semideponens) — active forms in the present system, passive forms in the perfect system?
A.audeo, audere, ausus sum
B.hortor, hortari, hortatus sum
C.moneo, monere, monui, monitum
D.sequor, sequi, secutus sum
Explanation: Audeo ("dare") is a semi-deponent: its present system is fully active (audeo, audebam, audebo) but its perfect system is passive in form with active meaning (ausus sum = "I dared"). Gaudeo, soleo and fido behave the same way.
5What is "fieri"?
A.The present infinitive of fio: "to become", "to be made", "to happen"
B.The perfect active infinitive of facio
C.The gerundive of fero
D.The present infinitive of fero
Explanation: Fio, fieri, factus sum is an irregular verb that supplies the passive of facio in the present system. Its present infinitive fieri is passive in form although fio itself has active endings. Depending on context it means "become", "be made", or "happen". The sächsische Lehrplan Gymnasium Latein lists fieri explicitly among the required Qualifikationsphase verb forms.
6"Morituri" is which form of morior, mori, mortuus sum?
A.Future active participle, nominative plural masculine — "those about to die"
B.Perfect participle, nominative plural masculine — "those who have died"
C.Gerundive, nominative plural masculine — "those who must die"
D.Present active participle, nominative plural masculine — "those dying"
Explanation: Morior forms an irregular future active participle moriturus, -a, -um ("about to die", "destined to die"), whose nominative plural masculine is morituri. The future participle expresses posteriority (Nachzeitigkeit), a form the sächsische Lehrplan explicitly requires.
7In "cupidus discendi" ("eager to learn"), what is "discendi"?
A.The genitive of the gerund, governed by the adjective cupidus
B.A gerundive in the genitive plural agreeing with an understood noun
C.The perfect passive participle of disco
D.The present active participle of disco in the genitive singular
Explanation: The gerund is a neuter verbal noun formed with the -nd- suffix: disco (3rd conjugation) → discendum, genitive discendi. Adjectives of desire and knowledge (cupidus, studiosus, peritus, memor) govern the genitive, so cupidus discendi = "eager for learning / eager to learn".
8"Liber legendus est." What does the form "legendus" contribute to the sentence?
A.It is a gerundive; with est it forms the passive periphrastic, so the sentence means "The book must be read"
B.It is a gerund; with est it means "The book is reading"
C.It is a future active participle, so the sentence means "The book is about to read"
D.It is a present passive participle, so the sentence means "The book is being read"
Explanation: Legendus, -a, -um is the gerundive of lego. A gerundive combined with a form of esse (coniugatio periphrastica passiva) expresses necessity or obligation in a passive sense: liber legendus est = "The book must be read / has to be read".
9"Locutus" (from loquor, loqui, locutus sum) is best rendered as:
A."having spoken" — a deponent perfect participle with active meaning
B."having been spoken" — perfect participles in -tus are always passive
C."speaking" — it is the present participle
D."about to speak" — it is the future participle
Explanation: Loquor is deponent, so its perfect participle locutus, -a, -um is passive in form but ACTIVE in meaning: "having spoken". This is one of the few ways Latin can express an active perfect participle, and it is a standard translation trap.
10Which statement about the forms of "corpus, corporis, n." is correct?
A.As a 3rd-declension neuter, its nominative and accusative singular are both corpus, and its nominative and accusative plural are both corpora
B.It is a 2nd-declension neuter with accusative singular corpum
C.Its genitive singular is corpi and its nominative plural corpa
D.Its nominative plural is corpi, following the masculine pattern
Explanation: Corpus is a 3rd-declension neuter with the stem corpor- (visible in the genitive corporis). The neuter rule applies: nominative and accusative are always identical, and the plural of both ends in -a (corpora).
