  • Should I learn Latin first?

    You should study Latin if you want to know more about life in ancient Rome. There is no real English equivalent for Latin words like forum, patronus, and imperator. When you learn these Latin words, you also learn about the Roman political and social realities behind them.

  • Is Latin the best language?

    Latin grammar teaches English better than English teaches English. 6.) Latin is the best preparation for learning any language. Which brings me to the 6th reason to learn Latin. Latin is the best preparation for learning a Romance language, or any language.

  • Is Latin easy or difficult to learn?

    Unless you can attend a summer Latin immersion program, it will be hard to immerse yourself in Latin; however, Latin is not necessarily any harder than any modern language and may be easier for some to learn than the daughter languages of Latin, like French or Italian. Opinions vary. With modern languages, there is a constantly evolving idiom.

Overview

Despite what you may have heard, Latin is hardly a "dead language." Many Latin words have made their way into our everyday speech, with even more being used on a regular basis by doctors, lawyers, and scientists. Many words in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, and other languages come from Latin. Although Latin isn't commonly offered i

Mastering the Alphabet and Pronunciation

Pronounce most consonants as you would in English. Since the English alphabet is derived from the Latin alphabet, most of the consonants make the same sounds. This makes Latin fairly easy to pronounce if you're already familiar with English. There are a few exceptions: The letters "c" and "g" are always hard, as in the "c" in the English word "cow" or the "g" in the English word "go." The letter "v" sounds like the English letter "w," as in the English word "wee." The letter "x" sounds like the English letters "ks," as in the English word "exit" (which is also a Latin word). The "r" is trilled, similar to the Spanish "r." See full list on wikihow.com

Studying the Latin Language

Start by memorizing the basic inflections of verbs. Conjugating verbs is a staple of learning any language, and Latin is no different. Like Spanish and some other languages, pronouns aren't necessary in Latin. However, you can always tell the subject of the sentence by looking at the ending of the verb. Generally, present-tense verbs ending in "-ō" have a first-person subject (I in English). Verbs ending in "-is" have a second-person subject (you in English), while verbs ending in "-it" have a third-person subject (he/she/it in English). As in English and other Latin-based languages, there are also irregular verbs. You'll typically have to memorize the endings for these, which can take a lot of drilling. See full list on wikihow.com

Reading and Listening to Latin

Start with readers that have keys. A number of Latin readers are available that have keys containing the full text in English. These can help you learn to read Latin. Some of these are simple stories written at a beginner level, while others are actual texts from ancient Roman philosophers and historians. All of these readers are available to download for free onto your computer or mobile device. You can set aside a specific time each day to read Latin or pull up the text when you have a moment, such as when you're waiting in line. Copying the text in your own writing can help you learn how Latin is written and how words are formed. Writing the text yourself also starts building muscle memory for the grammar and spelling of Latin words and sentences. Bookmark a good online dictionary for reading. When you first start reading, you'll undoubtedly come across words that you don't know. Look those words up so you gain a better understanding of the text. Even if you think you've figured out a word from the context of the sentence, it's still good practice to look it up and make sure you're correct. See full list on wikihow.com
