Présentation de l'éditeur

This Primer is designed for the use of beginners, being introductory toE asy Passages forT ranslation into Latin :a complete Latin version of which has been published for the use of teachers. The plan adopted is to start from the simplest form of sentence, and proceed gradually to continuous narrative. The first part contains ten preliminary exercises. These consist of short detached sentences, in which by the use of a limited number of words, a central idea is dwelt upon, turned about, and presented in many different aspects. The object is to make the pupil familiar with theL atin inflections, and to give him practice in the various forms of syntax, direct and indirect statement, interrogation, warning, command, etc., before venturing upon a connected narrative. To each exercise is attached a list of theL atin equivalents for the words that occur in theE nglish. The second part consists of aids and explanations for the translation of fifty pieces of English which will be found in the seventh edition of Easy Passages forT ranslation into Latin. These aids are 1. Praeparatio: containing hints and remarks on the method of dealing with the passage under consideration. 2. Constructio: the passage arranged to suit theL atin Syntax.
