In this level more complex grammatical forms are taught with the aim of developing the skill of reading Latin with comprehension. Students continue to prepare translations. Students are expected to translate a few selected passages at sight, and to analyze a Latin sentence explaining the grammatical function of each part. Derivative work is greatly expanded to include Latin phrases used in English and modern applications of Latin in the terminology of various professions. Readings include mythology, history, government, and social customs in Ancient Rome. The culture of the ancient world is related to modern conditions.
