toleraris

Toleraris is the Latin second-person singular present passive indicative form of the verb tolerare, meaning to endure, bear, or tolerate. In English, it translates as “you are endured” or, in common usage, “you are tolerated.” The form is part of the normal passive voice in Latin, used when the subject experiences the action rather than performs it.

Morphology and conjugation: tolerare is a first-conjugation verb. Its present passive indicative forms are toleror, toleraris, toleratur, toleramur, toleramini, tolerantur. Therefore, toleraris represents the second-person singular of the present passive: “you are tolerated” or “you are being endured.” The agent, if specified, is typically introduced by a or ab in the ablative with a denoting the doer (e.g., toleraris a amicis, you are tolerated by friends).

Usage: toleraris appears in classical Latin texts to express that someone receives tolerance or forbearance from others, or that something is endured by the subject. The precise nuance depends on context and the object of tolerare in the sentence. It can reflect social relations, patience under hardship, or the perception of others’ acceptance or endurance of the subject.

Notes: toleraris is limited to grammatical function as a verb form and is not a noun or a standalone lexical entry. It exemplifies how Latin uses passive forms to describe enduring actions or states of being attributed to the subject.
