ADVERBS AND CONJUNCTIONS.

579. The English Adverbs may sometimes be rendered literally by corresponding Latin Adverbs, and sometimes by other parts of speech. Thus adverbs and adverbial expressions may sometimes be rendered,

1. By Adjectives. See Model I.

2. By Pronouns. Thus also may sometimes be rendered by idem; always sometimes by quisque. See Model II.; also G. 451, 3, and 458, 1.

580. Not very, before adjectives and adverbs, may be

rendered by non ita; and not very much, before verbs, by non ita valde. See Models III. and IV.

581. In negative sentences, the negative is commonly joined with the conjunction:

And not, neque, or et non; for not, neque enim, or non enim; yet not, neque tamen, or non tamen. See Model V.

582. In a clause expressing purpose, that, with a negative adjective, pronoun, or adverb, should be rendered by ne with the corresponding affirmative adjective, pronoun, or adverb:

That no one, nobody, nequis, not ut nemo; that no, ne ullus, not ut nullus; that nothing, nequid, not ut nihil; that never, ne unquam, not ut nunquam. See Model VI.
