I wouldn't know what the best book is. I learned from Ecce Romani series. But I honestly didn't learn anything till I got into major translations like Cicero, Catullus and Caesar.

You're latin is weak, but you are willing to try?

I've yet to see Alexander. But I can't wait to see it. As soon as I have some free time, I plan on catching it

I noticed that many people on the forum are interested in learning latin. I thought it might be a good idea to open a thread for questions about the Latin language. Or maybe one specifically for helping our members learn the language? Just an idea.

When will the next installment of the newsletter come out?

jugurtha, That article is really very interesting. Do you know of any websites or books that talk about the same thing? Or do you have the website or the paper?

So when about would they have begun using long swords? Or do you know a website that I can check out for the info?

Wow, I can't wait for you to finish so that we can dive into it. I don't know much about the Apostate but I am willing to help you in anyway. My email is ladypreia@hotmail.com

About what time did the Romans start using long swords? Was it after the advent of the calvary? I imagine it would be terribly inefficient to use a short sword while on a horse.

I'm willing to help anyone who wants to try to learn.

Everyone have a very very happy holidays!

I got: 1. Marcus Aurelius 2. Nero (From MA to Nero? That's a bit of a stretch...i think) 3. Seneca 4. Cato Major 5. Martialis Julius Caesar is my #9. I was hoping for Catullus but he's freaking #12. Caesar Augustus is #16. The Gracchi are #23. And Lucretius brings up the rear at #24.

I'd be willing to work with ya warrior. I think it would be an excellent idea to have a pinned thread or forum dedicated to the teaching of Latin. I would offer my services in that area if needed

Wow a modernize version of Latin! That's great. I love latin and I would love to see it revived. I plan on teaching as much of it as possible to my children (when I have them ). I'm all for a Latin resurgance. I'm going to be tutoring some people in Latin starting in January. Anyone know of some helpful resources? They will be learning from the Ecce Romani series. I have the teacher suppliments for the series along with my own copy of Wheelock. Is there anything else I should get? I have a dictionary but I probably should get a new one.
