Pugio Bruti- bottom of p.38

[john abshire]

Vinum illi super tunicam effusum est, tum pugio illi ablatus est.
Illi.......illi?
Ignoring the first illi-
“Wine was spilt over her tunic, then a dagger was stolen from her.

Looks like you got ablatus confused with adlatus/allatus.

Regarding the first illi, take a look here, especially section 2.

“Wine was spilt over her tunic, then a dagger was stolen from her.

Good.

Good.

Thanks
Pura tunica indutus Clodius foras egressus est.
It seems that indutus should be induta (with a macron over the a) to make an ablative absolute “with a clean tunic having been put on.....”
But it doesn’t.
How does indutus fit into the translation?

 

[Pacifica]

It refers to Clodius, literally "having been clothed with a clean tunic".

It refers to Clodius, literally "having been clothed with a clean tunic".

After I posted this I saw that induo can mean “I dress” (also); and that indutus refers to clodius; and was hoping this would translate as “Clodius, having been dressed with a clean tunic...”
Thanks!
