Dear Elementary Latinists,
By Saturday evening, October 5, please do the following:
(1) Reading: Shelmerdine, Chapter 6, on the following forms and concepts. Note any questions along the way:
- The Gap (#38, pp. 53–4);
- Infinitive Use: As a Noun (#39, p. 54); and
- Dative of Possession (#40, p. 54).
(2) Homework (due by email, 11:00 p.m.):
- Reading 4 (p. 56). Translate the passage into English. FORMAT:
Number each English sentence, and treat each as an individual exercise,
starting it on a new line. Remember to double-space, please.
- Consulting Shelmerdine's pronunciation guide (Introduction, pp.
1–3), practice reading out loud Reading 4. Pay particular
attention to the placement of the stress accent on each word. When you
feel you are ready, call my campus voicemail (x. 5463) and
read me the passage over the phone. Identify yourself by name, so I know
who's calling.
