Latin for Medics, Pharmacists and Herbalists

A Latinum Institute intralinear lesson: this is taught using an ancient Renaissance technique — every sentence carries a word-by-word English gloss interleaved into the text, so you read and understand from the very first lesson, with no dictionary required. This is comprehensible input as a system. Each lesson section is repeated three times — first in construed technical form, then sentence by sentence, and finally in the target language only. Each section includes grammar notes. This enables you to assess your progress and test yourself for understanding immediately. Each lesson is built around one core word, and includes a full translation in technical gloss, then a natural translation, grammar notes, cultural context, and a passage of real literature, followed by a third section based on a genre style — a letter, a story, a dialogue — so that script, vocabulary, and grammar are acquired together through repeated, structured contact rather than drills or tests.
