Excerpt from Macmillan's Latin Course, Third Part: Easy Exercises in Continuous Prose
Before using this book the student should at least have had some practice in putting into Latin easy sentences illustrating the use of the accusative and infinitive, gerund and gerundive, wt and no, cum, 373, etc. Some of these subjects are treated afresh, but the sentences will be found too hard for the beginner, at any rate for the young beginner.
An acquaintance with the earlier volumes of this Course is not necessary.
My object has been to produce a set of easy exercises in continuous prose, to give practice in those words, constructions and idioms, which occur on every page of Cicero and Caesar, and so to enable the student to read these authors with some ease.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is designed to help students learn Latin through a series of easy exercises in continuous prose. The author focuses on those words, constructions, and idioms that occur most frequently in the writings of Cicero and Caesar, two of the most famous Latin authors. He emphasizes the importance of practicing common grammatical structures to gain fluency in reading classical Latin. The exercises focus on specific grammatical challenges that students typically encounter, such as the use of participles, infinitives in indirect discourse, pronouns, the gerund and gerundive, tenses in subordinate clauses, and conjunctions like *cum*. The author includes examples from established Latin grammarians like Gildersleeve and Lodge, as well as Drager and Kuhner, and uses Merguets Lexicons to provide detailed understanding of the vocabulary used by Cicero. The author aims to make Latin accessible to students who may be beginning the language later in their education. He encourages a practical approach to language learning, focusing on the practical use of grammatical structures to read and understand Latin literature. By providing a clear and concise guide to the essential elements of Latin, this book helps students to unlock the rich world of classical literature.
