Classical Language Learning Masterpost
I’m not studying any Greek or Roman this coming year (I sacrificed intro classical languages for gender & history), but I will be doing a Roman history module and engaging with the language is always useful. I know a few people who have been looking for Greek/Latin learning resources, which is how this list came about. It includes MOOCs, youtube videos and websites. Not really knowing much Latin or Greek I can’t vouch for them 100% but my googling skills are pretty on point, so they should be okay. Feel free to correct me or add to this.
Latin
Getting started on classical Latin
Duration 10 hours
Introductory level
This free course, Getting started on classical Latin, has been developed in response to requests from learners who had had no contact with Latin before and who felt they would like to spend a little time preparing for the kind of learning that studying a classical language involves. The course will give you a taster of what is involved in the very early stages of learning Latin and will offer you the opportunity to put in some early practice.
Continuing classical Latin
Duration 4 hours
Intermediate level
This free course, Continuing classical Latin, gives you the opportunity to hear a discussion of the development of the Latin language.
FLVS Latin
As we build our Via Latina, we will travel back to ancient Rome. On our travels we learn about their culture, history and literature.
National Archives: Beginner’s Latin
Welcome to the beginners’ Latin tutorials. These lessons cover the type of Latin used in official documents written in England between 1086 and 1733. This can be quite different from classical Latin, as used by the Ancient Romans.
Learn Latin
Here are two dozen short lessons on learning Latin designed for “mountain men” (and women: montani montanaeque), engineers, philosophers, and anyone else looking for entertainment and with lots of free time by the campfire. My course is quite different from Peter Jones’ Learn Latin (New York: Barnes and Noble, 1997), but it is just as devoted to interesting you in Latin.
Learn Latin (Learn101)
I would like to welcome you to the Latin lessons. I’m here to help you learn Latin, by going step by step. All the lessons contain audio and are all offered for free.
The London Latin Course
170 videos
Learn Latin from the ground up. This is a serial course, structured to bring you to a high level of Latin fluency. The pace is slow and unhurried. This course is suitable for all ability levels. Restored Classical Pronunciation.
Latin Online
Latin is probably the easiest of the older languages for speakers of English to learn, both because of their earlier relationship and because of the long use of Latin as the language of educational, ecclesiastical, legal and political affairs in western culture.
Latin Excercises
Welcome to UVic’s practice exercises for Wheelock’s Latin (6th edition). There are 40 units comprising many hundreds of exercises to help you consolidate your progress in the classroom and with the textbook.
Ancient Greek
Introducing Ancient Greek
If you are starting to learn Ancient Greek, this site is for you! This site will help you prepare for a Beginner’s Ancient Greek course.
Classical Greek Online
Greek has been important in the intellectual life of western civilization, but not to the extent of Latin except for ecclesiastical matters. In years past, Latin was introduced in the first year of High School, followed by Greek in the third year.
Ancient Greek Online
This site was designed to be a learning environment for students as well as a reading room for scholars. The large print Greek is easy on the eyes. The Internet has returned us to the scrolling method of reading texts, which lends itself particularly well to the project at hand.
Teach Yourself Ancient Greek
The material presented here will be of use to anyone beginning ancient Greek, but is specifically designed to accompany our book.
Ancient Greek Grammar
103 videos
Including pronunciation tips. I haven’t personally watched this and there’s no real description, but it looks pretty comprehensive from what I can see.
Greek & Latin
Introducing the Classical world
Duration 20 hours
Intermediate level
How do we learn about the world of the ancient Romans and Greeks? This free course, Introducing the Classical world, will provide you with an insight into the Classical world by introducing you to the various sources of information used by scholars to draw together an image of this fascinating period of history.
Discovering Ancient Greek and Latin
Duration 12 hours
Intermediate level
The free course, Discovering Ancient Greek and Latin, gives a taste of what it is like to learn two ancient languages. It is for those who have encountered the classical world through translations of Greek and Latin texts and wish to know more about the languages in which these works were composed.
Textkit
Textkit began in late 2001 as a project to develop free of charge downloads of Greek and Latin grammars, readers and answer keys. We offer a large library of over 180 of the very best Greek and Latin textbooks.

I was talking to my friend about my essay planning process and surprised them with my method - I thought this was the most common way to plan essays and it’s something I find really useful so I decided to share it in case it’s helpful, even though it’s probably not new knowledge!
What kind of essays can I use this for?
I use this for all my essays, though they tend to range from 1000-3000 words
I have yet to use it for a dissertation length essay but I’ll probably use the same structure, just much more detailed
This method is one that really helps me for essays I’m dreading writing or don’t know where to begin, because it breaks it down and makes it more manageable
May be different for different subjects - I use this predominantly for philosophy essays, which it works really well for
Where to start? (At the beginning and the end!)
Start with your word count. For example, let’s say your word count was 2000 words
Your introduction and conclusion should be no more than 10% of your essay
In our example, 10% of 2000 is 200 words, so:
100 words introduction
100 words conclusion
Onto the main body!
We’ve started to break it down! Subtract that from your desired word count and that’s your writing room for the main points of your essay
In our example that leaves you with 1800 words
Now you need to work out roughly how many words you make a point in - which really isn’t an exact science
For me I make a point in about 150-350 words, it really depends on how much detail you have to include
If you’re unsure write a rough draft of a point or analyse some of your previous essays - this word count usually includes referencing and quotations
For the sake of our example let’s say each point is about 250 words
250 goes into 1800 7 times, with 50 words for some leeway.
That means roughly you will need 7 points to make up your essay.
You can play around with what works for you - if 7 is too many, or perhaps you want an even number of points you can tailor it for that particular essay
Maybe one point will be 500 words instead because you have the most to say about them - whatever works for you is fine.
The emphasis here is on approximation, don’t get too hung up on meeting exact word counts, write what you have first and if you need more, find some detail to add to your points
Here’s the part about this way of planning essays that soothes me - looking at a blank pages and knowing you have to write 2000 words is very daunting. Instead, once I’ve broken it down like this I know I’ll need 5-7 points on a subject I’ve been studying, which is something I know I’m capable of -
“But Ceri?” I hear you ask. “What if I can’t think of enough points?”
This is part two of my essay plan - done with the statistics, you need the content
Analyse your question or title, this is the most important bit.
What is the question asking of you? Does it want an argument? An explanation? What things do you need to include?
Once you have a clear idea of what they want, whether you have an idea or not of what to write, look over your notes
Every essay needs evidence, something to support what you’re saying, be it data or critics or theorists - my advice is to find the evidence that is there and build your points around it
When you need to argue to your conclusion look for evidence that opposes each other, and that’s two points already done
Start by writing your essay in bullet points, then in longer sentences while you shift things around and then finally go full essay format
As you write other points or things to include might come to you - be sure you make a note of them!
One final tip - reference as you go along. It’s such a pain but getting to the end of an essay is a marathon, and then having to go through and sort out your referencing is like a sprint for the end
Anyway that’s most of my help for now! You might read this and think that none of it will work for you, and that’s fine too, there isn’t one set way to write an essay and this is by no means the best way - just my way.
It’s probably nothing new to most of you but I’m happy to share just in case, feel free to drop by and ask anything!

I remember seeing many maaaany years ago like within my first years of Tumblr, a handy post/chart for learning the differences between shared (and unshared) symbols used in Chinese, Korean and Japanese, and so I wanted to throw something together quick to help people learn the differences between languages using the Arabic script– they’re not all Arabic!! These are just some of the more common ones you see online.
Many many languages use a modified Arabic script, and I couldn’t possibly detail each and every one, so here are links to some info about others as well! Including:
Azerbaijani
Sindhi
Balochi
Luri
Mandinka
Arabi Malayalam
Kyrgyz
Pegon script (Javanese, Madurese, Sundanese)
This is also just a basic list of all languages current using a modified Arabic script in one way or another
