Second Edition Coming Soon:

More Challenging!

In addition to a variety of typographical and usage corrections, there is a major change in the layout of the book. Previously, each variation was given in complete form. The purpose of this was to provide an extremely user-friendly format for students. However, it seems it was a little too easy. Therefore, in the new edition, a few letters from the end of most of the words in the variations have been replaced with hyphens. This will encourage students to apply their knowlege of Latin while still keeping the excercises approachable. As all the variations with their English meanings are preserved undamaged in the apendix, the book can still be considered self-correcting and suitable for a wide variety of situations.

Additional material

5 new conversations with a unified theme have been added (units XXXI ~ XXXV). New appendices: Useful Words and Phrases, The Roman Calendar (fully written out), Questions and Answers in Latin, Money, Weights and Measures.
