ĭtă-que:
I conj.
I ( = et ita.) And so, and thus, and accordingly: ita dolui, itaque ego nunc doleo, Plaut. Truc. 2, 6, 45: si cetera ita sunt ut vis, itaque ut esse ego illa existimo, Ter. Hec. 4, 2, 28: cum quaestor in Sicilia fuissem, itaque ex ea provincia discessissem, ut, etc., Cic. Div. in Caecil. 1: ita constitui, fortiter esse agendum, itaque feci, id. Clu. 19, 51; id. Deiot. 7, 19: ita nostri acriter in hostes, signo dato, impetum fecerunt, itaque hostes repente celeriterque procurrerunt, Caes. B. G. 1, 52: illud tempus exspectandum decreverunt, itaque fecerunt, Nep. Alc. 4, 2; Caes. B. G. 1, 10.—
II And so, accordingly, therefore, for that reason, consequently (for syn. cf. igitur, idcirco, ideo, ergo): itaque ipse mea legens, sic adficior interdum, Cic. Lael. 1: itaque rem suscipit et a Sequanis impetrat, Caes. B. G. 1, 9; id. B. C. 2, 7; Tac. Agr. 10.—
   (b)    Occupying the second or third place in the sentence (very rare, and not before the Aug. period): versis itaque subito voluntatibus, Liv. 34, 34 fin.; so, edicimus itaque omnes, id. 3, 20, 4: quaero itaque, Curt. 7, 10, 7; and: nunc itaque, Hor. Ep. 1, 1, 10: pro ingenti itaque victoria, Liv. 4, 54, 6; so id. 6, 17, 8; 32, 16, 7.— In the fourth place: omnium sententiis absolutus itaque est, Plin. 18, 6, 8, § 43.—
   B Adding an example or argument, accordingly, in like manner, in this manner: nihil opus (est philosophum) litteras scire. Itaque, ut majores nostri ab aratro Cincinnatum abduxerunt, etc., Cic. Fin. 2, 4, 12: principes sunt simplices ... itaque aër et ignis et aqua et terra prima sunt, id. Ac. 1, 7, 26: itaque hoc frequenter dici solet, in like manner, id. Fin. 2, 4, 11.—
   C Itaque ergo, and hence therefore, and so for that reason: itaque ergo amantur, Ter. Eun. 2, 3, 25; Liv. 1, 25, 2 Drak.; 3, 31, 5; 39, 25, 11 al.
