I have absolutely no time to study Latin. Still, not to be exposed to it at all seems a shame. Perhaps I can be a passive observer of Latin words, without attempting any grand plans. I would like to keep it basic and simple, so only words drawn from a single class.
Latin word of the day: Stella, ae.
Gender: Feminine.
Meaning in English: Star.
Declension: First.
Declension: First.
Nominative singular: stella
Genitive singular: stellae

Ablative singular: stella

Nominative plural: stellae
Genitive plural: stellarum
Dative plural: stellis
Accusative plural: stellas
Ablative plural: stellis

Observations and things to remember:
1. Most nouns of the first declension are feminine.
2. The nominative and vocative singular are the same, and the nominative and vocative plural are the same.
