WELCOME TO Latinum, Latin language learning podcast from London.

- OVER 7,000,000 AUDIO FILES DOWNLOADED SINCE MAY 2007-

" Example before the rule" is a great principle of language learning. Viva voce methods save time, rules are grasped more quickly. Systematic use of viva voce Latin leads to rapidly gaining the required intuitive familiarity with Latin sentence construction, and the learning of correct vowel quantity from the beginning. Vocabulary is learned in a more natural way. The intention is to use the resources offered here to get good enough to actually get to think in the language, to live in it. This is the Renaissance Method.

The recorded lessons from Adler's Textbook, " A Practical Grammar of the Latin Language" form the core of the podcast. Adler's book can be downloaded for free from Google Books, who especially re-scanned this important textbook for us.

001 Celsus de Medicina - ed J.W. Underwood

Download this episode (30 min)   

Who was Celsus?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aulus_Cornelius_Celsus
J.W. Underwood prepared an excellent series of texts for Latin students in the early 1800's - his Grammar for medical students(see the Latinum sidebar) is one of the best I have encountered.

He also prepared 2 texts using the 'Hamiltonian' system, where each word is parsed in English in an interlinear fashion - he prepared these texts for his own teaching, and then published.
Here is the beginning of Celsus on Medicine.You can listen to the Latin while tracking the English.

001 Elementa Chymiae Dogmatico Experimentali

Download this episode (12 min)   

Part of our 'technical books' series. The reason I am presenting these books, is to allow you to listen to large amounts of relatively easy Latin, giving a wide selection of subject matter to build up and cement a wide range of fluency.
All of our technical books were written with Secondary students in mind, and were used in Schools and in Universities.
There may be occasioanl errors in quantity, as I am reading from unmarked texts.
