Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Copious Latin Grammar, Vol. 2 of 2 The Dative is generally used in answer to the question, to or for whom or what? whereto? to whose advantage? to what end? &c. and therefore instead of in, ad &c.: e.g. proximus sum egomet mihi: pater dedit mihi librum: accepi librum dono, for a gift: non omnibus dormio, I sleep not for all, to please all. But to speak more accurately, it is commonly joined to adjectives and verbs, though sometimes to other words. We shall, therefore, consider them in order. 1. Of the Dative with Substantives In the first place, the dative is at times used with substantives; as, lupus est homo homini, Plaut. Asin. 2. 4. 88: erit ille mihi semper deus, Virg. Ecl. 1. 7.
