Description

Provides an introduction to the basic forms of the Latin language and essential grammatical constructions. It will be of particular interest to those who want to acquire a knowledge of Latin to support study in other fields, such as language learning, linguistics, ancient history, mediaeval studies or law, as well as those with a primary interest in Roman literature. The classes will be devoted to practice in translating from English into Latin and from Latin into English, and will also introduce students to some simple examples of Latin literature.

Note: Excluded HSC Latin or equivalent.
