Latin Grammar - Grammar Vocabularies, and Exercises in Preparation for the Reading of the Missal and Breviary

 General Description:

The aim and scope of Scanlon's Latin Grammar are to prepare those with no previous knowledge of Latin to read the Missal and Breviary.  Unlike most First Year Latin textbooks, it is not an introduction to the reading of Caesar. Its twenty lessons embrace Latin grammar completely, from the first declension to the various uses of the subjunctive. Special drill in forms and vocabulary is provided by generous exercises.

After the student has made a fair start, he will encounter reading lessons, which are connected passages from the two liturgical sources for which the whole book is a preparation.  A valuable part of the book is the Latin-English vocabulary.  In it and throughout the book, the accented syllable is marked in all Latin words of more than two syllables. The one-year course of study provided by this textbook should enable a diligent student to read the Missal and Breviary with reasonable facility.

Answer key not available.
