Numeral

mīlle (genitive mīlle); semi-indeclinable numeral

  1. thousand; 1000
    Mīlle hominum rīsit, or, mīlle hominēs rīsērunt or, less preferrably, mīlle hominum rīsērunt.A thousand people laughed.
    Duo mīlia ovium tōnsa sunt.Two thousand sheep have been sheared.
Usage notes
  • The singular form can be:
    • originally a neuter noun with singular agreement taking the noun in genitive plural: mīlle mīlitum vēnit;
    • an indeclinable adjective with plural agreement, by analogy with other cardinal numerals: mīlle mīlitēs vēnērunt ("a thousand soldiers came");
    • or even a neuter noun with plural agreement, perhaps in a partitive sense: as in mīlle mīlitum vēnērunt.
  • The plural form normally behaves as a fully-declinable neuter noun of the third declension, with which the predicate agrees, as in duo mīlia mīlitum capta ("two thousand soldiers were captured");
    • but not if part of a compound numeral, and not with personal reference in the absence of a genitive, in which case it's an adjective, as in duo mīlia quīngentae (mīlitēs) captae ("two thousand five hundred women (soldiers) were captured"), tria mīlia captī ("three thousand were captured").
  • An ablative singular form mīllī also occurs - see usage examples.
  • For additional information see Appendix:Latin cardinal numerals.
