I've since been sidetracked. Mainly by Latin finals. Also by excursions.
One question, since it's easier to post this here than search up Diana's e-mail. There was one verb form on the test I could not get. Amavere. See, I tried conjugating perfect forms: amavi, amavisti, amavit, amavimus, amavistis, amaverunt. Amaveram, amaveras, amaverat, amaveramus, amaveratis, amaverant. Amavero, amaveris, amaverit, amaverimus, amaveritis, amaverint. I played with the subjunctive ones too. It couldn't be passive, because passive perfects are periphrastic. I don't see where you can get the -avere ending, unless it's some weird shortened version of one of the third person plurals or singulars.
Actually, that's probably it. Drat, several days late too. I guess I just needed to type it out. I'll look it up later. >_>
I had a really fun day on Friday. Antique shopping, balloons, baguette, sushi, cheesy glow-in-the-dark, a roof, canned pumpkin, and a tea cup with legs kind of fun.

amavere = amaverunt, third plural perfect active indicative.
That's something I teach in third year. You've had a long, Latin-filled summer, it seems. You are a freakin' machine to know all that already. :)
