Scholaris parvus

This is the object of the sentence. Scholaris is the main noun, while parvus modifies it. Because they are the object of erat, we know that both words are nominative singular.

Scholaris is a third declension masculine noun (scholaris, is) and means scholar.

Parvus modifies scholaris, but is a second declension masculine adjective. It means small or little.

So, you get a small scholar
