Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Short Sentences for Practice in Writing Latin: Designed for Students in Cæsar´s Gallic War The first edition of "Short Sentences" was printed a few years ago mainly for use in the Roxbury Latin School. Although it was never published or advertised, it has nevertheless found its way into several other schools; and those teachers who have used it speak highly of its value to them. The present edition, much larger than the first, carries the work through the whole of the first book of the "Gallic War," and has in addition nine pages of Notes. The object of the work, I need hardly say, is to give the pupil a considerable amount of practice in turning English into Latin with the classic models directly before him, and reciprocally to aid him in the translation of the text of Caesar into good English. It is hoped that in both directions the notes will be found a valuable auxiliary. They are not grammatical, strictly speaking, except in a few instances. They may rather be called idiomatical. I believe that all teachers will acknowledge the value of this kind of help to the student of any foreign language. To Mr. W. C. Collar, Head Master of the school, I am indebted for many valuable suggestions while preparing the present work for the press.
