Rosetta Stone Latin program
Has anyone tried this? I've thought about giving it a whirl but I don't know know how helpful it would be. I am interested in perhaps one day reading classics in Latin, so it's not just for ecclesiastical Latin...

Greetings,
It is classical pronounciation, Not ecclesiastical pronunciation. NOT strong on grammar. Good for spoken latin and vocab. Very expensive.
peace
I was curious too, as Latin is widely used in both Medicine and Horticulture.
Good to know.
I'd be curious to know if anyone is aware of another course that may be 'inexpensive'.
Thanks Anon, exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for!
I, too, would be concerned about the lack of grammar. Vocab is no big deal, but if you don't know the ins/outs of verb construction, (conjugations) you'll NEVER "read" Latin.
Dad29, for work I had to deal with Russian noun casing. If it's worse than that, then I quit!
