Who else takes latin?

<p>I do.... It's my fourth year (I started in 7th grade) and I'm in Latin 3 Honors.</p>

<p>I hate it.</p>

<p>Please tell me I'm not the only one?</p>

<p>I started last year, but due to other crap going on, and my teacher’s intense workload, I jumped back to first year for second semester this year. I liked it and despise it at the same time. My teacher is amazing and makes it worth it though. I guess I’m one of the lucky ones.</p>

<p>I also started in 7th grade, and am planning on keeping it up through high school. This is mainly because of how great my middle school latin teacher was.</p>

<p>I don’t take it</p>

<p>My 6th year of Latin. I actually liked it for the first like 4.5 years, but it just isn’t fun anymore :(.</p>

<p>I’ve been taking Latin since 7th grade, but I don’t really like it (I wanted to take German but my parents intervened).</p>

<p>I’ve been taking it for 2 and still like it. I still like it and it isn’t too hard, though my teacher is extremely nice, so that may make up for it.</p>

<p>I don’t think it’s extrememly hard by any means, but it’s deffinatly my most challenging class. If you can memorize, you can learn latin for the most part.</p>

<p>I have a good teacher now, and I had one in middle school too. It’s A LOT of work though… Definitely harder than any other language offered at my school. (French, Spanish, and Japenese starting in 11th grade)</p>

<p>And I don’t really understand anything because I basically slept through latin in most of 7th and 8th grade.</p>

<p>The real reason why I take latin: I used to take spanish, and in 6th grade I had an AWFULLLLLLLLLLL spanish teacher. I didn’t want to get her again, so my 12 year old self decided it would be wise to take latin.</p>

<p>i took latin 1 and 2 last year (soph year) and it basically sucked. </p>

<p>i was sucked into it because i had heard it looked good for college. </p>

<p>even if it did, which is doesn’t, it would not have been worth it.</p>

<p>Yeah, there are always tons of people who take it because “It helps you on your SAT’s”</p>

<p>I think it’s bogus… it’s definitely helped me in english class, but I think it’s ridiculous to take a language just for that reason.</p>

<p>It’s actually my easiest class, but obviously, it’s because of the teacher and class difficulty varying from school to school.</p>

<p>I like it most because it helps me learn English and gammar structure a lot more, and I love to write. </p>

<p>Spanish is a joke at my school in comparison to Latin. We learn all of the tenses up to fourth conjungation verbs, active and passive, first year. Spanish learns present, future, and one of the past tenses and that’s it when it
comes to verbs.</p>

<p>Someone was reading their Spanish homework off for review for their final and I was translating bits of it.</p>

<p>Haha, nice. I learned all the tenses, active and passive, up to the 3rd conjugation my first year. We’ve done all the declensions and conjugations by the end of our 2nd, and we’re almost done with the majority of latin grammar. We’ll be on literature by the first half of next year.</p>

<p>I think I’m done with grammar…
We started translating some Cicero stuff at the beginning of the quarter</p>

<p>:(</p>

<p>never took latin, but did like the following motto, taken from a mug:</p>

<p>illegitimi non carborundum</p>

<p>I am out of high school now (!!!) but I took 3 years of Latin. I did Latin I sophomore year, then AP Latin Vergil (yes I went straight into AP latin… I am crazy.), then AP Latin Lit with Catullus and Ovid senior year. I sort of love Latin.</p>

<p>what whatttt I just took my last ever latin test (in hs at least) yesterday. my class read vergil the whole year, and like inveniamviam, I sorta love it as well. I might even take it in college, even though i’m out of the foreign lang requirement</p>

<p>I’m not taking a language senior year (IF I stick with latin… I’ve been thinking about switching because I hate it so much) </p>

<p>I can’t take it anymore.</p>

<p>

I’m out of my foreign language requirement as well, but I’m thinking I’ll keep going with Latin.
HOWEVER. I also want to take Arabic, Italian, Greek, French, Maya (uh, Vandy offers a Maya language class. AWESOME!), and if I learned to read hieroglyphics my life would be complete. agh. No time for all that though I guess.</p>
