- If You wanted to write "bear is approaching the hunter to eat him." You have to use personal form of verb (edere) in subiunctive with "ut", in latin in this situation infinitive cannot be used. Latin expresses the purpose in sentence with "ut" + verb in subiunctive. It is called "ut finale"

Ursus procedit ad venatorem, ut eum edat.

You can also use "supinum" of edere - esum = to eat

Ursus procedit ad venatorem esum eum

- you can use supinum tense only if in the principal sentence there 's a verb that indicates movement (to go, to run, to come etc...)

At venator ursum aspexit et insiluit statim arborem.

trifidus Tuesday 20th of September 2005 03:49:39 AM
- iamque venator putaverat se magnum periculum fugisse, cum ursus in duobus stans pedibus, arborem premendo omni pondere corporis sui, eam evertere coepit, ut venatorem denique ederet
