Wheelock Chap 36 to 40 Key comments

Post by wm33 »

A few more minor points for consideration please:

Chap 37
P&R
2. Change ...we would not have wandered.. to ...we would have wandered..?
3. Change ......you lived... to ...you always lived...?

SA
3. Add at the end ...Let us enjoy life (the present)..?
4. Add after ...died!... What I have done!

Trimalchio's Epitaph

In last line, make ...they filled... just ...filled... since implevit is singular?

Chap 38
P&R
2. Typo: make first word Then instead of The?
6. Change ...as it occurs... to ..as often occurs...?
10. Add to the end ...at Rome.?
13. Change ...found... to ... found at home...?
16. Change ...eas... to ...eos... since no suggestion in question that only females involved?

Chap 39
SA
11. Typo: change ...men... to ...man...
14. Change ... not pleasant... to not pleasant for us...?

Chap 40
P&R
7. Change were to are and was to is?

Well, that's the first milestone reached - completing the 40 chaps with P&R, SA etc. I now plan to revise by reading the grammar and vocab for each chapter again and doing the optional self-tutorial exercises - which have a key supplied! I have found Benissimus's key an invaluable aid and say thanks again to him for all the hard work put into compiling such a key.

Compiling the answers in the first place was the hard part compared to querying a few minor errors/omissions/typos!

Valete amici,
