Syntax notes2 items
  1. 8.1.6.prAd certam partem fundi

    The preposition ad (governing the accusative) indicates the scope or target ("with respect to" or "for"). It applies to both infinitives remitti (to be released) and constitui (to be established) governed by potest. It signifies that a servitude can be created or extinguished for a specific parcel rather than the entire land.

  2. 8.1.6.prtam remitti quam constitui

    The correlative adverbs tam ... quam ... place the passive infinitives remitti (to be released) and constitui (to be established) on an equal footing. Governed by the main verb potest, they emphasize that a release, just like an establishment, can be effected with respect to a specific part of a land.
