Swallowing the dictionary - literally
Download this episode (82 min)
This episode is called swallowing the dictionary - and that is exactly what it is, a good big dose of the most important nouns substantive. Designed to be downloaded to an mp3 player, and listened to over the course of a few days. The fastest way to speed up your Latin, is to force feed yourself. Acquiring words is vital. Swallowing a dictionary is painful stuff, but using an mp3 player, and just letting the words drift by you, taking them in as and when over the course of the day, works well. This method also reinforces words that you know already.For some obscure reason, this very dry recital of lots of words and their translations has become a very popular file to download. I'm not saying you're masochists, you're simply keen to improve your Latin :). Certainly, getting the vocab under your belt is crucially important.
I'll make another one of these dictionary based episodes soon, for the principal nouns adjective. That'll keep y'all busy. Latin

Is there a place I can see the list of words used? I don't always catch the way the are spelled by just listening.
Seems to me that if i have the words written it would be easier to learn them.
dont't you think?
Any way, thank you very much for this podcast.
"Y'all"??? what is Latin for "Fixin' to?" I can help you with your Southern conjugations, ie, "Might could have..."
