Salvete!
I'm a self-taught/self-teaching beginner student of Latin, using "Latin for Today: First-Year Course" by Gray and Jenkins (1928), a book which I picked up a few years ago but only started to look at seriously last month. Inside the cover is an inscription by its previous owner: "If found please, send to Dead Letter Office somewhere in China," with a 1 1/2 cent stamp affixed. I'm amazed that I've gone as far as genitive and dative case, though now that I've met so many cases, they tend to blur together, and I find I need to review a lot before going forward.
Previous language experience: English from childhood, four years of German in high school, two years of college French, and half a semester of Chinese in graduate school.
Aside from languages, I've studied mathematics (B.A.), philosophy (Ph. D.), business (M.B.A), and computer science (M.S.). Magister sum: I'm on the faculty of Informatics at a campus of Indiana University, but I live in Ohio.
Hodie mea sententia est, "Orare est laborare, et laborare est orare."
