    Extractions: Advice for Learning Foreign-Language Vocabulary From Saint Louis University Grammar Helps Index DESIDERATA Practica Quaedam Face the facts! It is important to realize that you are the one responsible for learning the vocabulary. You will save much time and frustration by discovering precisely how you learn vocabulary most speedily and securely. Your goal should be a deep-processing of words. Deep-processing implies that these words become part of you, almost as your native language is part of you. Consilia (Recommendations) The following points, or some combination of them, may help you find your own best way to learn vocabulary. Use flash cards. Flash-card technology is still better than the most expensive educational computer gear that you can buy. It is the quickest way to get just the repetition that you need on just the words that you need to repeat. It is tried and true. And it is inexpensive. Using index cards or a pack of blank business cards, write the target words and phrases on the cards, putting one language on the front and the other on the back. As you review the words, proceeding through the stack, separate the words into two piles: those you understand immediately, and those you do not. Keep going through the yet-unlearned words until you attain a speedy mastery of them.

    Extractions: Latin Language Latin was the native language of the Romans, who spread it petty much throughout their empire. After the collapse of Rome , the language "died." Actually, Latin didn't really die, it just turned into Italian, French, Spanish, and several other languages. Or, more accurately, it turned into dozens of local dialects, which gradually merged to form those more familiar languages. This dialect formation had been going on for centuries. Indeed, educated Romans had often bemoaned the increasinly incomprehensible versions of Latin which were developing in the provinces. The dialects evolved through the absorbtion by the local Latin speakers of words and grammar from the conquered peoples. Although the barbarians who overran the empire were mostly unable to impose their own language on the, by then, romanized locals, they did effect numerous changes in the local form of Latin. As a result, by Charlemagne 's day (c. 800), the changes had become so great that in much of Europe the common people could no longer understand sermons in Church, albeit that they were being delivered in what was once Vulgar (low class) Latin As a result, the Emperor decreed that henceforth sermons were to be in the "lingua latina rustica " (the country-people's Latin). In other words, preach to the people in the language spoken in the area. It is

    Extractions: Writing systems abjads alphabets syllabic alphabets ... A-Z index In the 5th century BC, Latin was just one of many Italic languages spoken in central Italy. Latin was the language of the area known as Latium (modern Lazio), and Rome was one of the towns of Latium. The earliest known inscriptions in Latin date from the 6th century BC and were written in various versions of the Greek alphabet, which was brought to to Italy by Greek colonists. Rome gradually expanded its influence over other parts of Italy and then over other parts of Europe. Eventually the Roman Empire stretched across a wide swathe of Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. Latin was used throughout the empire as the language of law, administration and increasingly as the language of everyday life. Literacy was common among Roman citizens and the works of great Latin authors were read by many. Meanwhile in the eastern Mediterranean, Greek remained the lingua franca and well-educated Romans were familiar with both languages. In fact the earliest surviving examples of Latin literature are Latin translations of Greek plays, and Cato's farming manual, which dates from 150 BC. The language used in much early Latin literature, classical Latin, differed in many ways from colloquial spoken Latin, known as vulgar Latin, though some writers, including Cicero and Petronius, used vulgar Latin in their work. Over the centuries the spoken varieties of Latin continued to move away from the literary standard and eventually evolved into the modern Italic/Romance languages (

Latin Language Introduction Latin, the language of ancient Rome, is the ancestor of the modern Romance languages. Beginning as a local dialect of a small village on the Tiber River, it spread in the course of history over a large portion of the globe. In the Middle Ages Latin served as the international medium of communications, as well as the language of science, philosophy, and theology. Until comparatively recent times a knowledge of Latin was an essential prerequisite to any liberal education; only in this century has the study of Latin declined and emphasis shifted to the modern living languages. The Roman Catholic Church has traditionally used Latin as its official and liturgical language. The Latin, or Roman, alphabet was created in the 7th century B.C. It was based on the Etruscan alphabet, which in turn was derived from the Greek. Of the original twenty-six Etruscan letters the Romans adopted twenty-one. The original Latin alphabet was A, B, C (which stood for both

    Discussion of the history and development of the medieval latin language.  
    http://www.ucalgary.ca/applied_history/tutor/firsteuro/lang.html
    
    Extractions: Courtesy of Labyrinth Latin Bookcase The growth of the Roman state was accompanied by the spread of the Latin language, which came to be widely used throughout the Mediterranean world. In the western half of the Empire Latin eventually became the dominant language. Originally Latin was only one of several Italic languages, all belonging to the Indo-European linguistic family, and its development was influenced by other tongues, including Celtic languages, Etruscan and Greek. Like other languages, Latin underwent continuous development. In each period of its evolution there were significant differences between the literary written language, distinct from the spoken language of the educated and from that of the less educated populace. In the spoken language, borrowing from other tongues was common at all periods. Within the Roman state, Latin was the language of public administration. But it also provided a tool for communication between people whose first language was often another tongue. In the Eastern Mediterranean, other languages - especially Aramaic and koine Greek - had earlier fulfilled a similar function. Even after the Roman conquest, both these languages remained in widespread use in the East.
