Melissa B Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Are there other language programs like Lingua Latina - particularly Spanish or French? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa B Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 I did a google books search for books to teach foreign languages through direct method. I did find a few. The two for Spanish look quite good and very similar to Lingua Latina. The French and Ancient Greek books I will need to look through some more, but they are possibilities. I would still like to hear of any programs that teach by direct method similar to Lingua Latina. http://books.google.com/books?id=_esRAAAAIAAJ All Spanish Method - By Guillermo Franklin Hall Aviles http://books.google.com/books?id=KcxEAAAAIAAJ Poco a poco: An Elementary Direct Method for Learning Spanish - By Guillermo Hall http://books.google.com/books?id=G5AXAAAAIAAJ The First Year of Greek - by James Turney Allen http://books.google.com/books?id=XW0XAAAAYAAJ Beginner's French - by Max Walter http://books.google.com/books?id=r5oRAAAAIAAJ French by the Direct Method - by Johann Philipp Rossmann http://books.google.com/books?id=7AQCAAAAYAAJ The Mastery of French: Direct Method - by Gustave Pierre Fougeray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mama Lynx Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 There is a book that is basically a Spanish Lingua Latina, called Lengua Espanola. You have to order it from Spain, and it takes a very long time to get here. There's no support for it - no workbooks or additional books or helps. There are some answers in the back, though. I have a copy and plan to start it soon with my oldest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa B Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Mama Linx - Do you have a link or a website to Lengua Espanola? Thanks! latinteach - Thanks for the Greek suggestion. This looks perfect. (Here is an online set of exercises that appear to go with the book.) http://www.vroma.org/~abarker/tsintro.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mama Lynx Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 The book is Lengua Española: Comprensión by Svetoslava Staykova. The website is: http://www.fostrum.com/index_e.html but it wasn't working this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
