Overview
What you will study
Why would I want to learn Latin? No one speaks it anymore. This might’ve been your reaction when reading the title of this Introductory Latin course offered by Trent University . But this isn’t really true. While no one may speak Latin in its original form, many modern languages, including French and Spanish, have deep roots in the Latin language. Many words in use today in English have come to us from Latin. Learning Latin will definitely help improve your vocabulary, spelling, and grammar. Understanding a new language, even one this old, will expose you to new ways of thinking and perceiving the world. You’ll also have the opportunity to read and appreciate ancient texts in their original form.
