What does the Latin term 'solem' mean?

Answer 1

Solis may be either:

• the genitive singular of the word for "sun", sol(-is, m.) - meaning "of the sun"
• the dative or ablative plural of the word for "alone, only", solus (-a, -um) - meaning "to/for/from/by the only/lone "

Answer 2

The Latin term 'solem' is in the accusative case. So the English meaning is sun, as a direct object of the verb. Latin has case endings to show the relationship of the parts of speech to the verb and to the rest of the sentence. This is called declining a word in Latin. The declension of 'sun' in its singular form in Latin is the following: 'sol' as the subject of the sentence, in the nominative case; 'solis' as the genitive of possession; 'soli' as the indirect object, in the dative case; 'solem'; and 'sole' as the prepositional object, in the ablative.
