Best Latin courses in 2023: online beginner Latin courses informed by modern language pedagogy

Whether you call it "comprehensible input-based", "active Latin", "spoken Latin", "immersion", or pedagogy informed by Second Language Acquisition research, there is a multitude of options for studying Latin through online couses with innovative methods backed by developments in modern language pedagogy. This is a list of 19 online Latin courses - both live classes and self-paced courses - which are designed to help you acquire Latin through receiving large amounts of input in the target language. The list is not ranked from "best" to "worst", but rather I try to emphasise the different advantages of each course so that you can make an informed decision about what course would be best suited to your circumstances. Correction: I implied that Latinum had "Puella Romana" in the catalogue, but I had gotten the text confused with "Puer Romanus". In any case Latinum still has a very massive library of audio recordings incuding a large number not mentioned in the video. You can see my tabulated statistics for the live classes here: https://foundinantiquity.com/2023/01/18/comparison-table-of-all-online-latin-classes/ And here are the comparison tables for the self-paced courses: https://foundinantiquity.com/2023/01/23/comparison-table-of-self-paced-communicative-latin-courses/ If you would like to receive a free digital copy of my intermediate reader, The Lover's Curse, upon publication, subscribe to my email newsletter here: https://foundinantiquity.com/the-lovers-curse-a-tiered-reader-of-aeneid-4/ 0:00 Who I am and what we'll cover 0:58 This info is summarised in blog posts 1:05 Definition of beginner introductory courses 2:50 Only listing communicative/CI/active Latin courses 4:16 Ancient Language Institute 6:10 SeumasU 8:02 Latinitas Animi Causa 9:09 Polis Institute 13:55 Accademia Vivarium Novum 15:44 Schola Latina 17:38 GrecoLatinoVivo 20:50 Speaking Latin 22:38 Paideia 26:07 Schola Latina Europaea et Universalis 28:51 Oxford Latinitas 31:25 AthenaNova 32:50 Veterum Sapientia 35:51 About self-paced courses 36:56 Satura Lanx 40:50 Latin Per Diem 43:15 StoryLearning 45:45 Schola Classica 47:08 About content library subscriptions 47:53 Latinitium: Legentibus app 51:56 Latinum 56:36 Introductory courses bring you to the Intermediate Plateau 58:26 The Lover's Curse: a Tiered Read of Aeneid 4 59:58 Where to next - learning Latin on a tighter budget

Crēscat Austrālia! 🦘 Advance Australia Fair in Latin

For Australia Day, here is the Australian national anthem sung in Latin! You can turn on English subtitles to get the literal translation of the lyrics. The backing track came from this Creative Commons video: https://youtu.be/Ni1JFnCgEDM (Translation by me) Austrāliānīs gaudium, nam sumus viridēs, habēmus terrās aureās, arva cincta marī. abundat terra dōnīs pulchrīs nātūrālibus, per saecula, per omnia, crēscat Austrālia! nītentēs laetī cantēmus, crēscat Austrālia! subter crūcem sīdeream colēmus cordibus, rempūblicam ut faciāmus omnium nōtissimam. habēmus trānsmarīnīs sine fīne aequora, venīte magnō animō ut crēscat Austrālia! nītentēs laetī cantēmus, crēscat Austrālia!
