Study
Guide to Wheelock's Latin. |
| |
 In
1992 Dale Grote of the University of North Carolina, Charlotte,
web-published what has become a classic in its own right
— a very detailed, chapter-by-chapter study guide for
Wheelock's textbook. The Guide offers alternative explanations
for the first 35 chapters, and helps get to the heart of
Wheelock's discussions.

Electronic
Resources for Wheelock's Latin. |
| |
Written
by Paul Barrette of McMaster University, Canada, this site
boasts a full range of vocabulary-oriented drills for Wheelock
— although it is currently keyed to the previous edition
(which is not radically different from the current one).
The user interface is easy to use, and the drills run quickly.

Latin
Verb Drills and Latin
Noun Drills. |
| |
Elizabeth
Sutherland from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville,
has provided two sets of Latin drills: one for verbs, the
other for nouns. The drills test one's knowledge of paradigms
— that is, vocabulary words that illustrate common
patterns in the language.

Latin
to English Dictionary. |
| |
Yes,
there are more complete and more thorough Latin dictionaries
on the web, but for simplicity's sake this one is the best.
The dictionary was written by Tze-wan Kwan and Chong-fuk
Lau at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, based on a word
list by Lynn H. Nelson of the University of Kansas.
