COURSE PLAN NOTES:


 The course plan assignments include all Lessons and assigned translations in Henle III with additional
translation assignments from Part III of the text. There are intentionally more translation passages included
in Henle III than many students can complete in the course of a year. Parents and teachers are free to
supplement the translation assignments given or to reduce the translation assignments from Part III, bearing
in mind that the Exams will only include material covered in the course plan.
 There are intentionally more exercises on each concept in the Henle text than many students will need.
Because of this, a list of exercises that may be omitted or shortened is given in the course plans for each
Lesson. How many of these exercises are completed is left to the discretion of the teacher. Because the
focus and main task of this year of Latin is the ability to translate source texts, fewer exercises are given
than in previous years. If possible it would be good practice to give weekly, closed book, quizzes or tests,
using questions from the exercise sections in the Lessons of the student book.

 The course plan starts out with much extra information in the Key points in order to help you learn the
language of Latin grammar and guide you through the Henle text. Each Lesson should be read in full and
each new concept studied carefully through out the week.
 Kolbe’s exams will cover those Lessons laid out in the course plan, if you deviate from the course plan alter
your test to reflect the Lessons your student covered.
 Pronunciation is not of paramount importance as it would be in a modern language. Sound out words
carefully, consulting the pronunciation guide. Note that the pronunciation guide provided in this course
plan differs a little from the one Fr. Henle provides. Choose one method of pronunciation and consistently
use it. One need not, however, be overly concerned about pronunciation.
 Memorization is key to learning any language. A diligent student should keep flash cards and devote
fifteen to twenty minutes daily simply to memorization. Emphasis should be placed on repetition and
memorization, as these are the primary ways to learn a language. Repetition does not equal drudgery. In
the book, and in individual classes, repetition can take the form of games, contests, etc. This is especially
helpful for younger students.
 Many memorization assignments listed in the Henle III text will not be included in these course plans.
Because very little new grammar and no new forms are introduced in this year of Latin, this course plan
does not consider the memorization of portions of text to be necessary in every Lesson. Students should
re-memorize any paradigms given in the grammar reviews that they may find themselves unfamiliar with.
 English grammar sources should be used when necessary to clarify grammatical points.
 ASSIGNMENTS
1) Each week the lesson should be read and studied carefully.
2) Finally do the exercises and translation from the weekly lesson.

NOTES ON GRADING:
 As in any language there are multiple areas that need to be taken in to consideration: Grammar,
Vocabulary, Speaking, Writing, and Listening. It would be good to have a separate weekly grade for
each of these. At the end of the semester these should be averaged for the final grade.

CHURCH LATIN PRONUNCIATION RULES


Pronounce all words as in English except for the rules specified below.

1. Vowels. Above all, sound all vowels. Vowels are pronounced as follows:

Vowel Pronunciation Example

a as in Juan (ah) ad, mater


e as in they (ay) me, video
i as in Lisa (ee) video, qui
o as in Mona (oh) porta, omnis
u as in Lulu (oo) cum, sumus

2. Diphthongs Diphthongs are two vowels together that are pronounced as one sound.

Diphthong Pronunciation Example

ae like e in they (ay) saepe, praemium


oe like e in they (ay) proelium
au like ou in out (ow) laudo, nauta

3. Consonants Most of the consonants are pronounced as in English, with the following exceptions.

Consonant Pronunciation Examples

c before e, i, ae, oe like ch in charity decem, cibus, caelum


c before other letters hard c as in cut clamo, culpa
gn like gn in lasagne pugno, regnum
j like y in yet Jesus, judico
S like s in sing (never like z) tres, mensa
t when followed by i and a vowel, like “tsee” gratia, tertius, nuntius

CLASSICAL LATIN PRONUNCIATION GUIDE


1. The Alphabet. The Latin alphabet contains the same letters as English with the exclusion of “j”; “y” and “z”
were introduced late into Latin for the spelling words of Greek origin.

2. Vowels. Short and long vowels in Latin do not vary in their quality but rather in duration. Rather than
thinking of them as similar to English vowels, think of the difference between a short and long vowel as one
beat or two in length. Learning to spell words correctly signifying long and short vowel is more important
for meaning and writing poetry, rather than for speaking. Latin vowels are pronounced as follows:

Short Pronunciation Example Long Pronunciation Example


ā as a in water sāl A as a in tuna amor
ē as e in whey spēs E as e in met ex
ī as i in machine dīves I as i in kin fidēs
ō as o in no pīpiō O as o in loft opis
ū as u in crude lūna U as u in put lupus
y as ü in the German übernacht (form your lips as if to say “e” but then say “u” without moving your lips)

3. Diphthongs Diphthongs are two vowels together that are pronounced as one sound.

Diphthong Pronunciation Example

ae like ey in they saepe, praemium


oe like oi in oil proelium

ui like ooey in the phooey
tui, fui
ei like ei in reign deinde (phonogram of Greek origin)
eu Latin e + u “aayoo”Phonogram of Greek origin, rare in Latin and non-existent in
English
4. Consonants Most of the consonants are pronounced as in English, with the following exceptions.

Consonant Pronunciation Examples


c “k” always hard as the c as in cot calculus
g “g” always hard as the g in goat gaudeō
ch “k” always as ch in school (Greek origin rare in Latin) pulchrē
v soft w as in vērus

1) Mood (Is it: Indicative, Subjective, or Imperative?)
2) Voice (Is it: Active or Passive?)
3) System: Perfect or Imperfect (Is the verb complete or is its something that could be on going?)
4) Conjugation (1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th?)
5) Tense (What is its time? Present, Past or Future)
6) Person (Is it the 1st person, 2nd or 3rd?)
7) Number (Singular or plural?)

Moods:
Indicative tells the state of affairs. – That is how it is folks. (This is the most common.)
Subjunctive expresses some conditionality, possibility or uncertainty – If it were sunny I would go…
Imperative expresses some type of command – George, please bring my coat when you come.
Voice:
Active the subject of the sentence is the doer of the action. – Ted went to bed.
Passive the subject of the sentence receives the action. – Ted was overcome by longing for his bed.

 Note: Although little new grammar is introduced in Henle III, grammatical exercises continue to be
assigned to reinforce the student’s skills and as an aid to the translation of Cicero which will be the main focus
of this third year of Latin.

The material to be studied for each week will be broken into separate blocks for study as below. Each block
is one step in mastering the material for the week and is not necessarily only one day’s work; it may be
completed over more than one day.

1) Read the Introduction to the Student to gain an overview of the works studied this year. Review the
assigned Grammar passages on Latin nouns. Re-memorize forms as necessary. Read and memorize the
declension of quis, quid. Read through and memorize the vocabulary for Lesson 1. Study the Related English
and Latin words.
2) Study the Grammar passages on direct questions. Complete Exercise 1. Read and translate “Preces
Cotidianae.” Optional assignment: Memorize “Preces Cotidianae.” Subsequent text memorization
assignments listed in the Lessons will be omitted by this course plan to permit students to focus their attention
on translation assignments. However, students are expected to master/memorize the idioms and rhetorical
figures of speech assigned in this course plan.
3) Read pg. 212 on how to convey “yes” and “no” in Latin. Translate the questions in Exercise 2. Complete
Exercise 3.
4) Read pgs. ix - xii on Roman Oratory. These pages give an explanation of the history and structure of
Roman oratory and Cicero’s place in it.

xxxi – xxxvi First Oration Against Catiline Introduction, anaphora, irony


11 – 13 Lines 1 – 31
Assign HENLE EXS. GRAMMAR
 1) Read the English introduction to Cicero’s First Oration Against Catiline pgs. 3 – 10 and the Propositio
section of the Digest of the First Oration Against Catiline to give context for the speech you are about to
translate.
2) Throughout the year as you translate Cicero refer back to the Word-Groups and Idioms list that begins on
page 345. While translating the student should keep track of and memorize the idioms listed for the First and
Third Orations Against Catiline and the first 26 idioms given for The Impeachment of Gaius Verres. Idioms
from this list will appear on exams.
3) Read the short introduction in the section on Stylistic Devices. All the passages of Cicero that you will be
translating this year are public speeches. The ancients (Greek and Roman) used specific kinds of expressions,
or figures of speech, to embellish their speeches and persuade or move their audiences; some of these kinds
of expressions will be introduced to you in this section. Glance through the section and note that these figures
of speech include changes in word order, use of words and expression of ideas. Some of these figures of
speech, such as irony and metaphor, may already be familiar. Carefully read and study the descriptions of
anaphora (p. xxxii) and irony (p. xxxvi.) Do not be intimidated by the technical Greek names of these
rhetorical techniques; because these devices are not frequently used in English they will often stand out to you
as you translate. Notice the examples of each of these devices as you translate the assignment for this week.
4) Translate lines 1 – 31 of the First Oration Against Catiline.

REVIEW WEEK. NOTE TO PARENTS: Since the student is introduced to limited new grammar in Henle Book
III, and since the focus of the text is upon translation, the Exams for this year will primarily contain translation
of passages. The student will also be tested on grammar and vocabulary but these elements will not form the
bulk of the exam. Therefore, students should review vocabulary and translation notes that they have made for
the Cicero passages that they have translated this semester. In addition to translation, students will then parse
or explain grammar, syntax, and idioms that occur in the Cicero passages. Students should use the “Words
Groups and Idioms” list, pg. 345 and following, to review idioms learned this semester. Students may also
find the Review Word List (beginning on pg. 359) and Classified Word List (beginning on pg. 377) helpful.

the Cicero passages that they have translated this semester. In addition to translation, students will then parse
or explain grammar, syntax, and idioms that occur in the Cicero passages. Students should use the “Words

III. Translate the following passage from Cicero (79 points; 1 pt. per word).
(Vocabulary: tenuis, thin, slender; specula, watchtower; observo (1 tr.), watch, observe; vel, the very, even;
reprehendo, (3 tr.) blame, admonish; integer –gra, -grum, honest)

Nunc autem homines in speculis sunt: observant quemadmodum sese unusquisque vestrum gerat in retinenda
religione conservandisque legibus. Vident adhuc post legem tribuniciam, unum senatorem hominem vel
tenuissimum esse damnatum: quod tametsi non reprehendunt tamen magnopere quod laudent non habent.
Nulla est enim laus, ibi esse integrum, ubi nemo est qui aut possit aut conetur corrumpere. Hoc est judicium in
quo vos de reo, populus Romanus de vobis judicabit. In hoc homine statuetur, possitne, senatoribus
judicantibus, homo nocentissimus pecuniosissimusque damnare.

Now all are watching us (lit. men are on the watchtowers): waiting to see how each one among you carries
himself in obeying his conscience and preserving the law. They see that since the passage of the tribunician
law, only one senator, a man of very slender means has been condemned; although they do not censure this,
they cannot praise it very much. There is not much praise for integrity in a case where no one has the power or
the will to corrupt it. In this is a trial as you will give a verdict on the defendant, the Roman people will give a
verdict on you. It is this man’s case that will show whether when Senators pass verdict, a very guilty and very
wealthy man can be condemned.

IV. Refer to the underlined words in the Cicero passage above for the following questions (9 pts.)

1. Give part of speech, number, gender, case, and comparison of “tenuissimum”.


Part of speech: adjective; number: singular; gender: masculine; case: accusative; comparison: superlative.

2. What part of speech is “retinenda”? Why is it in the ablative case? A gerundive. It is modifying “religione”
which is the object of “in”.

3. What kind of construction is “tametsi non reprehendunt tamen magnopere quod laudent non habent”? It is
an adversative and concessive clause.

V. Stylistic Devices: (6 pts.)

1. (Refer to the underlined words in the Cicero passage above.) What figure of speech is “homines in speculis
sunt”? It is a metaphor. (We don’t suppose that there are literally citizens stationed on watchtowers because of
Verres’ trial.)
