960: Practice in Translating Latin

February 14, 16, and 18
11:45 AM - 1:15 PM
In-Person

This February Short will provide practice in translation for those students who have taken Latin for Curious Beginners in the fall semester. We will work on translating at sight, focusing on both original texts and workbook exercises. We will not be learning any new grammar except as unfamiliar constructions appear in the texts. For those who want to put their rudimentary Latin to use, this short course could be good fun.
