Nuper rescivi Severinam et Valentinum, illius @CirculusI sodales, mox foras edituros esse novam acroamatum seriem, in qua locos Latinos legent et colloquendo enodabunt. Exspectatissima veniet! Nomen date! 🥳 APERTO LIBRO: https://t.co/fk9Mz6S8pL
I'm selling a colourful poster of the first 11 lines of the Aeneid in a kind of interlinear of Latin & pictures, to make your wall more epic! Link to the merch shop & a free black and white pdf of the illustrated lines here: https://t.co/p55pQTh9lG
@FoundnAntiquity I still often hear this stance expressed, sometimes even with the conditional removed, to wit: “I see that your approach helps people truly learn Latin efficiently, but the point of studying Latin isn’t to learn Latin; it’s to train the brain [in a particular way of thinking”
@rfreed314 (In this part of the letter, he is talking about his midday routine, the part after spending several morning hours pondering and then dictating his writing and then spending time outside doing more pondering and dictating and riding around in his ‘vehiculum’)
Every time I read this letter, I enjoy that in Latin "re-sleeping" is a thing (meaning, apparently, to sleep some more later in the day, to take a nap) #ClassicsTwitter
@toutovlepo A PACE lesson usually targets something quite specific for which learners attempt to derive “the rule” from instances in a text. Prime examples for Latin might be in+acc vs in+abl, or nom subj vs acc DO for nouns of the same declension and number
@toutovlepo@thesega I’ve taught that specific one, btw, at one of Tina’s Summer Institutes. The students in the Institute (adult teachers of other languages) did all right trying to figure out subj -a, possessive -ae, and DO -am in the same lesson; I haven’t tried that lesson w non-language-Ts
@ApudRecentiores is back! In a way…. In a YouTube channel way! I like the possibilities for video better than pure audio for Latin content.
Intro video here with a bit about me and plans for the channel:
