Kit Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Dear users, (I am not sure if I should post this topic in the general forum. If I post it at the wrong place, I apologize for that.) I plan to continue to pursue my theological study on a next level, probably ThM or ThD and I need two more modern languages and two ancient languages. I think I will study German and Latin but I am not sure which textbook is good. May you suggest me some? I am about to purchase Lingva Latina for Latin study but have not yet found one for German. Thanks, Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpkang Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 For German, I used an earlier edition of Jannach's German for Reading Knowledge. For Latin, you might also consider the recent and well-received Yale textbook Learn to Read Latin by Keller and Russell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks JP, For the language study, do you think I have to go to the traditional class or can I just study myself? Thanks Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Kit The answer has to be "it depends." If you're very self-motivated and are a naturally self-taught (an "autodidact"), then a good book may be enough. In general, though, a good or excellent teacher will help you make progress more quickly than you would if studying by yourself (among other benefits). J. P.
