Syntax notes2 items
- 5.1.6.priudicandi
The genitive singular of the gerund of the verb iudicare (to judge), functioning as a genitive of description or objective genitive modifying officio (office, duty).
- 5.1.6.profficio fungitur
The verb fungor (to perform) governs the ablative case, which is why its grammatical object officium appears in the ablative form officio. The indicative present fungitur here denotes a general legal capacity or qualification (i.e., 'can perform').
