Course Description

Learn the basics of Classical Latin in this first of two introductory courses. Students who take this course will learn basic Latin grammar and syntax, as well as a comprehensive vocabulary, which expands with each lesson.
Benefits of taking this class include:- Learning the father language of all Romantic languages (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French). This is an excellent gateway language to learning many new languages in the future. - Learning the etymology of thousands of English words which derive their meaning from Latin.- Learning the mechanics of a new language will help students come to a better understanding of grammar in their own language.
Materials Included:- Short 3-7 minute lectures for each lesson- Document accompanying each lesson subject, which includes 10-15 vocabulary word list- Sentences to translate from Latin to English and English to Latin- Self-test exams every five chapters- Answer key for exams and translation exercises- Bonus vocabulary list (which I will continue to add to)Who this course is for:
This Latin course is for those interested in learning new languages and reading the manuscripts of ancient historians and philosophers. This course is not for those who are looking for advanced Latin courses, as this is an introductory course.

Yes

Have been taking Latin on Duolingo for a few months, now. Was looking for a different way to gain exposure to Latin language learning. So far, after one lesson, I'm pleased with the quality of this course. I'm also glad the anglophone instructor is able to trill his r's! (Unlike some voice actors on the Duolingo course.)

Not for beginners. It is hard to follow and it would be better with more examples.

kesinlikle doru bir eleme...

By Manjari Ghosh on 9/1/2020

I am delighted with this course and the way it is being taught. What I realise is that a lot of practice on a regular basis is needed. I find the Resources attached to the lectures very useful.

By Lais Queiroz de Sousa on 8/24/2020

I think this will be an excellent match as I am older and can replay this over and over and learn. Glad I found it.
