Any SAT-level free latin learning resources? Anonymous 03/11/16 (Fri) 05:41:34 No.9064

i know of one that isnt free, but the company has a course on greek that i would prefer to buy (i can only afford 1 of the two) because there are so many more things i want to read in greek (homer, aristotle, the bible) than i do latin.

so please inform me of any free latin resources, or convince me why i should buy the latin course over the greek one. i hate writing shit that way because i have no control over you, but i couldnt think of a better way to say it.

can't you find some cheap used grammar and see if you like it better.

if you ask me latin is simpler to learn than greek. but maybe that's just me.

Buy a used Latin or Greek textbook. When I studied Greek I used An Introduction to Ancient Greek by CAE Luschnig. For Latin I used Jones and Sidewell's Reading Latin published by Cambridge. If you're going to go with Greek, I'd recommend Luschnig, the text is pretty easy to follow. The Jones and Sidwell wasn't the best, but I don't have any experience with other textbooks so look around before buying one. As for difficulty, they're quite similar in their differences from English. The main difference is Greek has three "voices" for verbs while Latin only has two, Latin has five cases for nouns while Greek only has four (and also has the dual). Also, Greek has an article which can make it easier to identify the form of a noun. I wouldn't worry about the difficulty of either though. If your intention is to read ancient texts in the original, then you should choose the language that best fits what you want to read. So your case, Greek.

>Greek has three voices; Latin has two

What? Latin also has middle voice for some words—deponent verbs.
