Rare supines
@Kanjuzi is the section on rare supines sufficient with the presented examples, or do you see the need to cite papers and books regarding supine analysis? Daniel Couto Vale (talk) 21:23, 16 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Yes, I would say you definitely need to cite books such as Gildersleeve and Lodge's grammar (or another standard work such as the Lateinische Grammatik of Leumann-Hofmann-Szantyr). Gildersleeve and Lodge say nothing about the supine having a dative or a genitive. (The example you cite from Manilius is in any case not a genitive.) As far as I know, although the form of 4th-declension verba nouns such as receptus and partus resembles that of the supine, such nouns are not usually referred to as supines. The title "Rare supines" is also a little odd, since such words are not particularly rare. Kanjuzi (talk) 07:59, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
