Dear Elementary Latinists,
For Monday, October 26, please do the following.
READING
Shelmerdine, Chapter 11, on the following not-unrelated topics:
- Special Adjectives in -ius (#57, pp. 101–2)
- Numerals (#58, pp. 102–3)
- Expressions of Time (#59, pp. 103–4)
VOCABULARY
Due by 9:00 AM (EST) by email.
Write a one-paragraph short story (6–8 sentences) in which you feature English derivatives from 75% of the Chapter 10 and 11 vocabulary (pp. 91–2 and 106–7).
As before, use the English words naturally in your prose, but put the Latin words from which they are derived in parentheses immediately afterward.
When listing the Latin words, use the first form of a noun, adjective, or pronoun, and the infinitive form of a verb. ALSO: If your derivative contains a Latin preposition, include it in your parenthetical citation.
IMPORTANT: Please follow the formatting requirements for written work.
Please let me know if you have questions.
