Get this: the guy dies in a fiery flame along with his dog. Horrific to grow so close to someone - whether or not they exist - only to see them put down. My recommendation is to closely watch Caecilius. He is a brave man, and an example to us all.

lmao wut?

I don't know enough Latin to use a textbook that's entirely in Latin. Are you using some supplementary source?

>>9906470
I use a dictionary/Wiktionary only. I still remember some stuff I learned in grammar school so I don't need more material.

The book seems fine to me even for complete beginners, though. Are you sure you can't follow it? Much is illustrated and exemplified.

Check out Wheelock's Latin (7th. ed) too. It's great. You can find it on http://b-ok.org/ or some such site.

I second Wheelock's. Get through that book and you'll be able to read basic to early intermediate Latin.

How can you decide you're going to learn something you don't even know how to learn?
Don't you think elaborating your own schedules based on the learning material you already have is part of your learning process? If not, how could you ever achieve your goal that way?

It makes no sense, and if you're depending on anonymous people to tell you what to do then you're not going anywhere anyway

I clearly just wanted some book recommendations which other people gave me. I have learned French, so I'm no stranger to learning a new language. Please, go look for reasons to feel self-righteous elsewhere.

What a retarded statement.

i wholly do not recommend wheelock's. from what i've heard, it relies solely on rote memorization of grammar and vocabulary, which is the wrong way to learn a language.

the right way to learn a language is to use the language without mental translation; you apprehend a text, an action or an object primarily in the second language. to this end, the Cambridge Latin Course series has a very intuitive teaching method. within three school years (i was a stoner, unfortunately), i had translated the satyricon and most of catullus' poetry. get the books, do the workbook exercises, thank me later.

this book is good if you wanna hit it hard

>>9906565
Not an argument

>>9906555
Then why didn't you create your own schedule beforehand? You either start taking lessons or you start teaching yourself, and part of that is being autonomous in that regard
I didn't mean to discourage you, but for you to decide you're going to do something the least you can do is come up with reasonable ways of doing it yourself

Look up some torrent books, I guess

>from what i've heard
It worked well for me. Got through the book in about a year then started reading with a dictionary. Now, after two years total, I can read Cicero smoothly (looking up a few words per page and checking complex grammar once in a while).
