The Book of Roots - Advanced Vocabulary Building from Latin Roots

 Our Description

This is book is a gem! We thought long and hard about what else the serious Latin scholar – or general scholar – might need and the monks think we have really outdone ourselves with this one. The Book of Roots offers a comprehensive listing of derivatives for Latina Christiana I (alphabetized by both English Derivative and Latin), along with Latin definitions, English derivative definitions, and etymology. There is also a section of weekly exercises that draws out interest and provides reinforcement. This is definitely the book to use if your student loves words – or if you want him to! Seeing such a comprehensive list of derivatives will surely impart how pervasive Latin is in the English language – and provide yet another reason to study Latin.

Fascinating on its merits as a vocabulary roots course, this book also has significant practical appeal - it is an ideal standardized test prep book, training students to uncover the meanings of words by deciphering parts. The Book of Roots is a Latin roots course, vocabulary building course, Latin dictionary, and etymology reference book all in one! It is enthusiastically recommended for all Latin students!
