Everyone loves grammar, whether its in English, French, German, Italian (you get the gist of this ) etc,and especially Latin, grammar can make our lives hell.

So its always great when someone can come up with interactive grammar tables that can test your knowledge and help you to improve your grammar.

They are self-checking exercises that test your knowledge of all the cases of Latin nouns, adjectives and pronouns. Spend some time with our interactive Grammar tables, and you'll learn your grammar so well that you'll never need to come back

Some More Translation Practice...

To get better at translating or to start studying a text try the first few paragraphs of Horace the Satires (Book 1) below:

gressum magna me accepit Aricia Roma
hospition modico: rhetor comes Heliodorus,
Graecorum longe doctissimus; inde Forum Appi,
differtum nautis, cauponibus atque malignis.

hoc iter ignavi divisimus, altius ac nos (5)
praecinctis unum: minus est gravis Appia tardis.
Hic ego propter aquam, quod erat deterrima, ventri
indico bellum, cenantis haud animo aequo
exspectans comites. iam nox inducere terris

umbras et caelo diffundere signa parabat. (10)
tum pueri nautis, pueris convicia nautae
ingerere. “huc apelle!” “trecentos inseris: ohe
iam satis est!” dum aes exigitur, dum mula ligatur,
tota abit hora. mali culices ranaeque palustres
