For anyone interested in reading official documents written in England between the years 1086 and 1733, knowing Latin is often a necessity. And not just any form of the language, but the particular version of Latin used in those documents, which differs from classical Latin in significant ways. Thankfully, the National Archives of the United Kingdom has launched a practical online tutorial for beginners in this uniquely British dialect of the ancient tongue. On the site, readers may link to explanations of the language and read about classical Latin. They may also, of course, engage in the free Tutorial, which starts with a lesson on verbs and ends, eleven sessions later, with a 5-stage lesson on adverbs, numbers and dates, months, useful phrases, and dating clauses. Each lesson includes practice sentences and at least one activity. Best of all, once readers finish with Beginners' Latin, they can move on to the equally exceptional Advanced Latin, also on the National Archives page.
