I was surfing a random wave on the web last night when I was driven ashore and found myself at this Latin Grammar Site. I took a look around and it seemed like a good reference spot.

I’ve always found the “math” part of the address interesting. I cut the address back one time and found out that Latin is a hobby of a math prof.
This is a pretty good site if you want the same sort of thing ready to print out. The grammar handouts are down at the bottom.

Cool ! I like this site too. It’s exactly what I’m looking for, something to print out and use as a handy “cheat sheet”. It beats “flipping” through the pages of BLD, which I’m reading on the computer so “flipping” through pages is not quite as “easy”. I also love the vocabulary lists on this site.
i like the FAQ’s…

At least he has a sense of humor…
Locative case in there too ;D
3rd declension looks hard!
I prefer 4th ;D
Don’t worry; no one ever uses the locative (they do… but SUPER rarely).

4th neutral: cornu, cornus, cornu, cornu, cornu

Indeed 
FREAKS!
How ?! can the meaning be distinguished?!
Try scanning the line (if it’s verse)
or look for an adjective (if it’s worse).

Well, at least memorizing that declension should be a cinch! 
But then, wouldn’t a sentence have different interpretations?
Guess it’s a trade off between easy memorization of case endings and easy comprehension of sentences.
You’re right, you need the rest of the sentence to find out what case the word might be.
Fortunately, there are only a few neutral nouns of the fourth declension. Most words are 3rd declension.

uhh…no! whatever gave you that Idea?! I suggest you look over that again! >:(
Yeah, thank goodness there are only a few neuter 4th declension words… the ones I know:
genu: knee
cornu: horn
In my opinion, it’s the most fun of the declensions (or maybe I just like the U sound). The plurals are pretty distinguishable, and so are the masculines/feminines, so don’t freak out just yet

veru: iron pen you stick into meat to roast it on a fire
gelu: freezing weather, ice
Typically words I learned from a Dutch textbook, hence the somewhat long descriptions. ‘braadspit’ and ‘vorst’ in Dutch, respectively.
