Latin is an extremely difficult language to master. For one thing, it’s not a language that people use in conversation, so no one knows exactly how it is supposed to sound; for another, there are many different tenses and the sentence structure is very different than English or other widely known and widely used languages.

Whether you’re looking for help with second declension adjectives, prepositions, verbs, or moods in the Latin language, Learning Tools Flashcards are an easy, low pressure way to learn and understand a complex language.

The AP Latin course is designed to teach students how to read and understand Latin poetry and other writings, and prepares students to successfully analyze passages, some of which are very well known. The course prepares students to take the AP Latin exam, which is comprised of two sections. The first section is multiple choice and covers sight reading of prose and poetry, along with syllabus reading; the second section is a free response section that requires translation of multiple authors (like Caesar and Vergil), short answer sections, as well as an analytical essay.
