Does anyone have any practical experience with Hans Orberg's *Lingua Latina*text? I have been using *Latina Christiana* for my 6th, 7th, and 8th graders for a ...
YOu dont say whether your students need to translate into Latin, or just from Latin to English. I only need to translate from Latin to English, and the tutor...

I have a question about the books out there that are translations of modern works into Latin such as "Harrius Potter" and the like. Is one mandated to stick to...
You're translating verbatim here. Italian isn't Latin. So, because Latin reflexives aren't Romance passive constructions, and because "profunde dormivit" is...
Dear Rev. Beane: I donnot have any experience as a Latin teacher at all. As a matter of fact, I am not but an autodidact. I would like to tell you that in...
In A.D. MMVII, Feria III, a.d. v Nonas Iulias, ... I am not a teacher, but I've enjoyed reading through (most of) "Lingua Latina". However a remarkable number...
Thanks. I never knew that the phrase "dormire profunde" would be Medieval. One would never know that from a pocket dictionary. Pliny uses the reflexive "se...
I've only ever seen "profunde dormivi" in two places: Thomas Aquinas and "Rebilius Cruso" (Latin translation of "Robinson Crusoe"): one being medieval, the...
What about this example from Vergil: "Clamor se tollit in auras (Vergil) `A cry is raised in the light of day.' This example is given from an Internet web page...
You ask some brilliant questions. Here's some brilliant answers. Lol. On the words "se tollit," Seruius says, "Verbum augurum, qui, uisis auspiciis, surgebant...
Thanks for clarifying about the use of the so called "se passive" in Classical Latin. From what you said I gather that it was not always used with the same...

Vulgar Latin seems to have existed fairly early, as 1st-century graffiti from Pompeii demonstrates: "Quisque ama, ualia." (i.e., "Quisquis amat, ualeat.") The...
Thanks for your insight. As for literary Latin, is Dante's "De Vulgari Eloquentia" in a more classical literary form? It appears to be more classical than some...
Dante was brilliant, so anything he wrote wouldn't be anything less than brilliant. Reading the first couple pages of "De Vulgari Eloquentia," I'm unable to...
I read on the online Lewis and Short web page that homo can be used as a synonym for vir in the periods before and after the classical period. It is used...
Salue. Vir might mean homo in a sarcastic sense; homo might mean uir in an uncertain sense; homo might mean homines, but not uiri; uir does not mean either...
Thanks for clarifying the differences between the homo and vir. I did not know that not many of the impersonal verbs used the subjunctive. Are the Medieval...
Does anyone know anything about the Rosetta Stone Latin edition? Is it an effective tool in learning the language? If one has a basic grasp of the language, is...
