How do you find the subject in a sentence in Latin?
In Latin, the subject and object are indicated not by their position in the sentence but by the ending of the word. In Latin the subject is placed in the nominative case, the object in the accusative case. Nouns are recorded in the dictionary in the nominative case, e.g. puella or populus.
