Synopsis

First Year Latin By Correspondence is a comprehensive guidebook designed to teach the basics of Latin language through a correspondence program. This book is based on the original text of First Year Latin by Ada Townsend, which was first published in 1902. The correspondence program allows students to learn Latin at their own pace and from the comfort of their own homes. The book contains various chapters covering all the essential topics required for a beginner to learn Latin, including grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and syntax. The exercises provided in the book are designed to help students practice what they have learned and to reinforce their understanding of the language. The book also includes a comprehensive glossary of Latin terms and phrases, as well as a pronunciation guide to help students pronounce Latin words correctly. With its clear and concise explanations, First Year Latin By Correspondence is an excellent resource for anyone looking to learn Latin from scratch or to improve their existing knowledge of the language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The followingS tudies are the result of a settled conviction that the teaching of Latin by correspondence is not only possible, but practicable. Many of the difB culties that beset the teaching by correspondence of a modern language, with its attendant necessities of correct accent, idiomatic diction, and rapid comprehension, are absent in the case of a language no longer spoken. Much that hinders the progress of the ordinary pupil in school, such as large classes, and the imequal ability of his classmates, is eliminated from the work of the correspondence student, who progresses at his own rate of speed, all of whose work has the instructors individual attention, and to whom no inaccuracy is permitted, because his work must be entirely in writing. The presentS tudies aim to supply, as far as possible, the place of the teacher in oral work, expanding with full explanations the excellent text-book of Professors Collar and Daniell, furnishing much drill on forms, and amplifying the text-book to such proportions as it would take in regular class room work. No attempt has been made to teach deriyation, except in so far as will aid the students memory in the attainment of a vocabulary. It is the authors belief that with conscientious and thorough attention on the part of the student, theseS tudies will give adequate preparation for second year work in the average high school or academy.
