Publisher's summary

For thousands of years, Latin has been the language of the Roman people, of science, of history, and of culture. The Latin for Beginners audiobook will guide your learning of this fascinating and beautiful language.

You’ll be provided with some specific vocabulary about family members, pets, types of buildings, days of the week, months of the year, and numbers, as well as other words and phrases that become useful when building sentences. It will also teach you four of the main tenses (the present, the imperfect, the future, and the perfect) as well as noun cases and adjectival agreement.

By the end of this audiobook, you will be able to understand simple Latin sentences that you hear, produce simple Latin sentences, and be able to identify some unfamiliar words using your knowledge of grammar.

The audiobook assumes no knowledge of Latin or linguistics and will take you through everything you need to begin exploring this wonderful language.

So, whether you have never studied Latin before, are picking up the language again and wish to recap the basics, or have some knowledge and want to solidify your understanding of the foundations, this audiobook will be of benefit to you.

Latin for Beginners

I do not recommend this audio book except as a review for those who understand Latin. It is not for beginners. The narrator is hard to understand.

Not a great book for basic beginners

It skips all the tables and other contents that are in the book and were supposed to study.
Not a great book for beginners.

Not really a good audiobook

So learning languages via an audiobook can be hard. And this audiobook falls into a trap that ive seen before where for charts (and theres a lot of them) they just read left to right (as opposed to reformatting the chary and speaking it like a human would)

This gets really tedious, but I get its necessary for language learning.

So I went to see if I could get the book this is based on. Its not available on kindle, in paper, or anywhere except the “Centre for Excellence” website – where the course costs $140

Absolutely ridiculous
