Beginner

Salvete, Omnes

I am new to latin I am anxious to learn. I belong to Nova Roma and when I asked there they suggested I join Textkit. So I am here and ready to learn.
I must tell you now I do not know any latin so any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Valete, Lucius Servilius Primus

Welcome to the forum, Luci Seruili Prime. Did you have a specific question?

Salve, Moderator

Well what is the best and quickest and easiest text to use to start learning latin. I realize that it will take time and a lot of work but I would like to cut to the chase and start learning. As I mentioned in my previous post I know no latin I have a latin - english dictionary and a book about latin for even more occasions. So I need all the assistance I can get.

Thank you

Vale, L. Servilius

Salue Luci S. Prime,

I would recommend the “Latin for beginners? by Benjamin L. D’Ooge that you can download here:

http://www.textkit.com/learn/ID/108/author_id/13/

If you don’t like this book you have more choices here:

http://www.textkit.com/latin_grammar.php

Not all are for beginners, but a few are.

The second recommendation I make is to study a little everyday.

Hope this helps,

Andrus
