Best Answer

Liberi means children, usually in relation to their parents (e.g., liberos adduxerunt "they brought [their] children"). It is a 2nd-declension noun and appears almost exclusively in the plural.

Pueri literally means "boys", but can also be used of children in general (e.g., pueri in campo ludebant "children were playing in the field"). It is also a 2nd-declension noun.

Young children not yet able to speak are infantes. This is a 3rd-declension noun.

childrenNom. liberi; pueri; infantes

Gen. liberorum; puerorum; infantium

Dat. liberis; pueris; infantibus

Acc. liberos; pueros; infantes

Abl. liberis; pueris; infantibus
