Partial Key for Latin: A New Grammar Book of Exercises
2 This is a partial key that supplements the book Latin: A New Grammar. Book of Exercises. What does it feature? It features the answers in full for most of the exercises, especially for the exercises of English sentences to be translated into Latin, as this is usually the most challenging kind of exercise. What doesn t it feature? This is a partial key, not a total key. It is not supposed to be a book on translation. For the exercises of reading Latin sentences (I prefer the concept of reading rather than translating ) only a small hint in English is suggested (usually, related to the grammatical item being dealt with, but not always). As a general rule, in these cases the note in brackets (partial suggestions) is shown. Also for exercises that ask student to fill a gap with one of the given options, or to change some verbal form, etc. the solution to that requirement is offered, but not the translation of the sentence. Is the offered answer the only right possibility? As happens in the case of keys offered for books of exercises of modern languages, they key is straightforward for exercises in the style of multiple choice and similar, but in the case of translation of sentences from Latin into English or vice-versa the offered solution should be considered only as a suggestion; students should not consider that a translation that they have devised is wrong if it does not coincide with the one offered in this key, as the possibilities are many: different word order, usage of synonyms, etc. Format and English language used Although I have used the same square-shaped format of 8.5 x 8.5 as for my grammars and for their two corresponding books of exercises, this is not a book to be published, but just a PDF to be downloaded so that students can check the accuracy of their answers. It has not been formatted for publication. The numeration of the paragraphs has been kept as in the book of exercises. Neither the parts inside each exercise are numbered in the Book of Exercises nor the answers are numbered here, and moreover, for the sake of saving space, in many exercises the answers have been written horizontally. In spite of this, it will not be difficult to see what answer corresponds to what part of the exercise, to what sentence, etc., as the order has not been changed and no exercise features a block of more than seven sentences/parts. The English of the sentences to be translated into Latin will sound unnatural in many cases, as the purpose is to address the student s mind to what must be said in Latin; for instance, you may find the expression the book of the teacher instead of the more natural the teacher s book because the first one resembles more what would be said in Latin by means of the genitive case. And the same applies for the English translation of Latin sentences or of part of them.
