In this course, students continue their introduction to basic concepts, vocabulary, and Roman culture. Topics include the locative and special place constructions; time constructions; the imperfect, future, perfect, pluperfect, and future perfect tenses; indicative active; passive numerals; particles; questions; fourth and fifth declensions; compound verbs; and more uses of the ablative. Using Latin roots as a key to English vocabulary is continued. The study of ancient Roman culture includes mythology, the early history of Rome, religion, coins, lamps, Cicero, and the fall of the Republic. A great emphasis is placed upon translating Latin into clear English and English into correct Latin.
