Ov. M. 1, 193; 4, 10; 5, 484; Verg. A. 3, 91 al.), conj. enclitic [kindr. with Gr. te, ke, and Sanscr. ca, the same], a copulative particle affixed to the word it annexes. According to Dräger (Hist. Synt. Th. 3, p. 32), it is, in archaic and official language, preferred to et, from which it is distinguished by denoting a closer connection. It is used,

but there, Sall. C. 3, 3.—Mostly after a negative:

Cic. Tusc. 1, 29, 71; id. Cat. 2, 13, 28 fin.:

qui non temere movendam rem tantam expectandosque ex Hispaniā legatos censerent,

Liv. 21, 6, 7:

quae neque dant flammas lenique vapore cremantur,

Ov. M. 2, 811.—

Que is usually appended to the first word of the phrase, but to a noun rather than to a monosyllabic preposition governing it, unless the preposition is repeated:

de provinciāque,

Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 20, § 48:

per vimque,

id. Phil. 5, 4, 10; cf.:

ab iisque,

id. Tusc. 5, 33, 94:

sub occasumque solis,

Caes. B. G. 2, 11.—

Exceptions are to be found, especially in Liv.: proque ignoto,

Plaut. Capt. 3, 4, 10:

exque eo tempore,

Cic. Off. 2, 23, 80; 1, 34, 122:

inque eam rem,

id. Rosc. Am. 39, 114:

inque eo exercitu,

id. Sest. 18, 41:

inque eam rem,

Caes. B. G. 5, 36; Liv. 10, 37, 15; 40, 57, 5; Tac. A. 15, 45:

cumque eis,

Sall. C. 6, 1:

proque,

Liv. 4, 26, 9; 6, 26, 5; 30, 18, 2:

deque praedā,

id. 23, 11, 3:

perque,

id. 1, 49, 5; 3, 6, 7; 5, 36, 7:

transque,

id. 22, 41, 7:

aque,

Ov. Am. 2, 14, 30:

eque,

Verg. E. 7, 13; Val. Max. 1, 5, 3:

exque eo,

Cels. 7, 27:

perque somnum,

id. 2, 5.—And where the same preposition is repeated que is regularly joined to it:

haec de se, deque provinciā,

Liv. 26, 28, 3; 22, 59, 16; 29, 23, 10; 31, 5, 4;

38, 35, 7: de matrimonio Agrippinae, deque Neronis adoptione,

Suet. Claud. 43 init.:

per senectutem tuam, perque eam, quam, etc.,

Plaut. As. 1, 1, 3. —

Where the preposition is dissyllabic it regularly takes the que: interque eos,

Liv. 2, 20, 8; 5, 49, 7:

sine scutis sineque ferro,

Cic. Caecin. 23, 64. —

It is rarely annexed to the second word of the clause, when the first word is an adverb: tantos tam praecipitisque casus,

Cic. de Or. 3, 4, 13:

tanto tam immensoque campo,

id. ib. 3, 31, 124 al.—In class. Latin que is not appended to hic, sic, nunc, huc, etc. (v. Madv. ad. Cic. Fin. 5, 14, 40):

hucque et illuc,

Tac. A. 13, 37; 15, 38: tuncque id. ib. 6, 7 (1);

14, 15.—Que is often misplaced by the poets, especially by Tibullus and Propertius in the latter part of the pentameter: Messallam terrā dum sequiturque mari,

Tib. 1, 3, 56:

ferratam Danaes transiliamque domum,

Prop. 2, 16, 11.
