The ablative with certain adjectives
The ablative is used regularly to denote the object of certain adjectives, such as:
| fretus | relying upon |
| dignus | worthy |
The
master is worthy of honour
which in Latin would be: dominus dignus
honore est
This can also be translated as: The master
deserves honour
Note that in English we express this construction with a genitive and not an ablative.
