Now that the Latin textbook has finally arrived, the past couple of assignments (about thirty lines of translation for every session) have proceeded much more smoothly. Greek, however, takes a bit longer, since I have no vocabulary lists for the Plato text- I manually look up anything I do not know (i.e. everything but "to be" verbs and the nouns for family members) in "The Great Scott", which is a massive Greek lexicon. I have put off studying forms and old exercises from the beginning-level courses I took last year, but this weekend I hope to catch up (in Greek at the very least) so that during the week I can concentrate on reading for the Greek and Roman sculpture class.
