What reading level is New Latin Grammar book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I. The Latin tenses express two distinct no- tions : — a) The period of time to which the action belongs : Present, Past, or Future. U) The kind of action: Undefined, Going on, or Completed. The Latin with its six tenses is able to express each of the three kinds of action for each of the three periods of time (making practically i68 SYNTAX. nine tenses). It does this by employing certain tenses in more than one way, as may be seen by the following table : — PERIOD OF TIME. Present. Past. Futur...e. Undefined. Present : Historical Perfect : Future : scribo, / wri^g. scripsi, / wrote. scribam, / shall ■write. Going on. Present : Imperfect: Future : scribo, / am scribebam, / scribam, / shall writing. was writing. be writing. Completed. Present Perfect : Pluperfect : Future Perfect : scripsi, / have scripseram, / scripsero, / written. had written. shall have writ- ten. 2. It will be seen that the Present may express Undefined action or action Going on ; so also the Future. The Perfect likewise has a double use, according as it denotes action Completed in present time (Present Perfect) or Undefined action belonging to past time (Historical Perfect).
