Product Description
Product Description
Do memories of your grammar lessons haunt you and other textbooks overwhelm you? Then ‘Teach Yourself Beginner’s Latin’ is for you. Follow a Latin story set in a medieval monastery, where conspiracy unfolds in the cloisters, Vikings threaten to attack, and young lovers set out to unmask the villains. Sample some classical Latin too, and learn more about the authors who wrote it.
‘Teach Yourself Beginner’s Latin’ is ideal for complete beginners because it introduces the language step by step through an interesting and humorous story. Each unit contains grammatical explanations and vocabulary support. There are plenty of exercises to practise each point as it is introduced and help you remember what you have learnt. There are two revision units so that you can check your progress and review areas of difficulty. ‘About Latin’ sections give lots of information about the history of the language and its influence upon English. ‘Living Latin’ sections contain pieces of authentic Latin, most of which is classical. They are included to give you an idea of what there is to enjoy once you have mastered the language and the translations are given.
Two accompanying CDs are available separately or in a pack with the book. The recording contains the story and the ‘Living Latin’ sections of the book, and will enhance your enjoyment of the poetry and give you an idea of what Latin sounded like.
The leader in self-learning with more than 300 titles, covering all subjects.
Be where you want to be with Teach Yourself.
