Opis: A Latin Grammar (Classic Reprint) - Bennett Charles E.

Excerpt from A Latin Grammar<br><br>The present work is a revision of that published in 1908. No radical alterations have been introduced, although a number of minor changes will be noted. I have added an Introduction on the origin and development of the Latin language, which it is hoped will prove interesting and instructive to the more ambitious pupil. At the end of the book will be found an Index to the Sources of the Illustrative Examples cited in the Syntax.<br><br>C. E. B.<br><br>Ithaca, New York, May 4, 1918.<br><br>Preface To The Second Edition.<br><br>The present book is a revision of my Latin Grammar originally published in 1895. Wherever greater accuracy or precision of statement seemed possible, I have endeavored to secure this. The rules for syllable division have been changed and made to conform to the prevailing practice of the Romans themselves. In the Perfect Subjunctive Active, the endings -is, -imus, -itis are now marked long. The theory of vowel length before the suffixes -gnus, -gna, -gnum, and also before j, has been discarded. In the Syntax I have recognized a special category of Ablative of Association, and have abandoned the original doctrine as to the force of tenses in the Prohibitive.<br><br>Apart from the foregoing, only minor and unessential modifications have been introduced. In its main lines the work remains unchanged.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
