I am an art history student and I need to take a language. I love classical antiquity and I want to specialize in Greek and Roman art and architecture. I am torn between the two languages. I think Latin may be a little more useful, but I am still unsure. Thanks!

I've taken two years of latin, and I'd say it's somewhat hard to learn everything, but once you learn declension and conjugation rules, it is fairly easy. I'd be fluent in Latin if I could actually remember any of the vocabulary...

So, people say Russian is realllly hard to learn, but is it any harder than Latin?
And what about Greek? I've heard it is also very difficult.

I am just curious what people have to say about which is more difficult, and why Thanks!

At the moment I'm preparing for an experiment of trying to make it possible to conversate in Ancient Greek, do you guys have any advices that can help me to find basic phrases of the language for example to make a start and to improve?
e.g. with Latin it already worked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqOFnYgyRr8

I am currently studying Latin. I realize that alot of the modern languages today inherited much of their vocabulary from Latin. The other language that I want to look into is greek. Is there advantages to it other than just speaking it? Will it help me think analitically in other fields too? Is is promotable?

I am studying Classical Langauges (i.e. Latin etc.) and I would like to know if there are any good places online to start learning the Classical Greek language, perhaps interactive sites. If not, are there any good book you would recommend?

Latin-Roman people ( Spanish,Portuguese and Italians )are so different than Slavic people...
Nordic people( Norvegian,Swedish, German) are also so different than Greek people...
Etc,etc...
But they are all White people...Homo Sapiens people...

Why, how and when did they choose to do the things in different ways ? (languages,cultures,etc..)

I am thirteen and i want to learn a different language preferably greek or latin i was wondering if there is a website i could go to that is free or is there a nintedo ds or wii game that i could purchase that would help
thanks very much

He could write similtaniously Latin in one hand and Ancient Greek in another. He is a 19th Century president.

This is a question about medical termology. Do doctors or other meidcal profession need to know both Greek and Latin>

So if you were talking bone cells in Latin it would be osteocyte, but in Greek it would be ossicyto correct?

So it seems logical that both are required, is that correct?

Im interested in learning languages, but very slow at it, currently i know some spanish(high school) and am learning irish(celtic irish), but i also want to learn either greek or latin, both being key languages of western history.

Some U.S. Presidents have also been scholars,
one was ambidextrous, and could write the
same message at the same
time in both Latin and Greek on
two different papers with two
quills. Clue he was also
a Mason. Name him.
