Classical Language Learning Masterpost
I’m not studying any Greek or Roman this coming year (I sacrificed intro classical languages for gender & history), but I will be doing a Roman history module and engaging with the language is always useful. I know a few people who have been looking for Greek/Latin learning resources, which is how this list came about. It includes MOOCs, youtube videos and websites. Not really knowing much Latin or Greek I can’t vouch for them 100% but my googling skills are pretty on point, so they should be okay. Feel free to correct me or add to this.

Getting started on classical Latin

My course is quite different from Peter Jones’ Learn Latin (New York: Barnes and Noble, 1997), but it is just as devoted to interesting you in Latin.

Latin is probably the easiest of the older languages for speakers of English to learn, both because of their earlier relationship and because of the long use of Latin as the language of educational, ecclesiastical, legal and political affairs in western culture.

hey have you got any advice for a latin student trying to learn ancient greek on their own?
already understanding how inflected languages work will be helpful! the most comprehensive online resource i know of for ancient greek (and other ancient languages) is http://lexicity.com/ . as for textbooks, the ones i’ve used are athenaze and hansen & quinn. the former has better reading passages, but the latter has better grammar explanations (it’s intensive and is quite a brick).
latin: if i include a single extra word that could be assumed from context or included in the meaning of another word, i will be a failure and must be shamed in the forum for my wastefulness
attic greek: if it doesn’t have at least five untranslatable particles, is it really a sentence?

It is said that after losing his wife, Orpheus was torn to pieces by Maenads, who threw his head into the River Hebron. The head went on singing and forgetting, filling up with water and floating way.
[…]
can you hear it you with your long shadows and your short shadows can you hear the severed head of Orpheus no I feel nothing from the neck down
already forgetting who I am
the crime goes on without volition singing in its bone not I not I the water drinks my mind
—Alice Oswald, excerpt of “Severed Head Floating Downriver”, in Falling Awake
me: hm i think i will read some ancient greek to brighten up my day! :)
ancient greek: It is best not to be born at all; and next to that, it is better to die than to live; and this is confirmed even by divine testimony.
