avāritia īnfīnīta, īnsatiābilis est, avarice is boundless (and) insatiable;
Cn. Pompejō, M. Crassō cōnsulibus, in the consulship of Gnaeus Pompey (and) Marcus Crassus.
The conjunction is regularly omitted between the names of consuls when the praenomen (Mārcus, Gaius, etc.) is expressed.
b) An Adversative Conjunction may be omitted; as,—
ratiōnēs dēfuērunt, ūbertās ōrātiōnis nōn dēfuit, arguments were lacking, (but) abundance of words was not.
ADVERBS.
[347]. 1. The following particles, sometimes classed as Conjunctions, are more properly Adverbs:—
etiam, also, even.
quoque (always post-positive), also.
quidem (always post-positive) lays stress upon the preceding word. It is sometimes equivalent to the English indeed, in fact, but more frequently cannot be rendered, except by vocal emphasis.
nē ... quidem means not even; the emphatic word or phrase always stands between; as, nē ille quidem, not even he.
tamen and vērō, in addition to their use as Conjunctions, are often employed as Adverbs.
2. Negatives. Two negatives are regularly equivalent to an affirmative as in English, as nōn nūllī, some; but when nōn, nēmō, nihil, numquam, etc., are accompanied by neque ... neque, nōn ... nōn, nōn modo, or nē ... quidem, the latter particles simply take up the negation and emphasize it; as,—
habeō hīc nēminem neque amīcum neque cognātum, I have here no one, neither friend nor relative.
nōn enim praetereundum est nē id quidem, for not even that must be passed by.
a. Haud in Cicero and Caesar occurs almost exclusively as a modifier of Adjectives and Adverbs, and in the phrase haud sciō an. Later writers use it freely with verbs.
