Getting the Most Out of Latin Texts

Take your time with each passage. Underline key words, circle verb endings, and make notes in the margins. Look for repeated ideas or literary devices. Annotating helps you spot patterns, ask questions, and remember what you read.

Examples

  • Highlighting all the verbs in a Latin passage to map out the action.

  • Jotting down possible translations for a tricky phrase.
