Latin Year 11 Mr James

Date Due

Oct. 11, 2022

Additional Info
Thoroughly revise the translation for Sections 9, 10, 11, 12. We will start with a translation test.
  • Cover the English. Do you know any of the Latin words?
  • If not, use the vocabulary boxes at the bottom of each page to match each word of Latin to each word of the translation.
  • Once you have remembered how it fits together, on a line-by-line basis, cover the English and translate aloud whilst pointing at the individual Latin words.
  • Focus attention on the individual words that cause problems.
  • Words highlighted in yellow are frequently repeated and are worth knowing particularly well.
  • DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE MEMORISE THE ENGLISH LIKE A SCRIPT WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE LATIN - 'that way madness lies'.
