Adjectives will be in the accusative case so they can describe the direct object because in Latin the 1 rule for an adjective to match a noun(direct objects, object of the prepositions, or normal nouns) is it needs to match the nouns gender, number, and case. Video means I see in Latin so if you wanted to say I see the town. You would say Video Opidium. Oppidum is accusative because it is a direct object
- Direct objects go after the verb in Latin but the adjectives go before the verb in latin.
