Part of Issue #7 of The Highlight , our home for ambitious stories that explain our world.
Terry Blas is the illustrator and writer behind the autobiographical comics “Ghetto Swirl” and “ You Say Latino .” Terry’s work has appeared in the comics Steven Universe, The Amazing World of Gumball, Adventure Time , and Rick and Morty . His first graphic novel, Dead Weight: Murder at Camp Bloom , is a murder mystery set at a weight-loss camp. His second graphic novel, Hotel Dare , is an all-ages sci-fi/fantasy/adventure inspired by his childhood memories of Mexico.

Now is not the time for paywalls. Now is the time to point out what’s hidden in plain sight (for instance, the hundreds of election deniers on ballots across the country), clearly explain the answers to voters’ questions, and give people the tools they need to be active participants in America’s democracy. Reader gifts help keep our well-sourced, research-driven explanatory journalism free for everyone. By the end of September, we’re aiming to add 5,000 new financial contributors to our community of Vox supporters. Will you help us reach our goal by making a gift today?

Latin 101 will cover the first 15 chapters of Lingua Latina . The approach is intensively grammatical. Each chapter will be translated in class, with all grammatical constructions explained. Students are expected to master ( i.e. memorize) the vocabulary and the various paradigms (declension and conjugation patterns) necessary to progress in reading proficiency.

Our required texts will be Lingua Latina I (Familia Romana) and its supplemental commentary and grammar Lingua Latina, A College Companion . A Latin-English dictionary is required (the New College Latin-English Dictionary is in the campus bookstore, but any good dictionary will do). A systematic Latin grammar is recommended (the introductory Cambridge Student's Latin Grammar is quite good). For students lacking a strong foundation in English grammar, English Grammar for Students of Latin is essential. It is available in the campus bookstore or on-line.

Full grammatical and vocabulary commentary for our text is provided on line. These sheets provide essential aid in understanding the text and the grammar involved. Please download and study them continuously:

Latin is an inflected language. That is, the endings of words change to reflect grammatical function. The changes of a noun are called "Declensions" and the changes of a verb are called "Conjugations". It is absolutely ESSENTIAL in the study of Latin that the declension system and its grammatical functions be mastered. Below are introductory handouts that will aid the student in beginning this process.

There is also an on-line exercise program for learning the declension of Latin nouns:

Students should be prepared to spend a regular amount of time on homework before each class session. In addition to brief written homework to be turned in at most class sessions, homework consists of preparation of the next session's quiz and reading passage, and the following essential tasks:

1) Work through and translate for yourself the text in each chapter of our textbook and regularly read through earlier chapters for review.
2) Do all the exercises in each chapter in writing.
3) Memorize all new vocabulary in each chapter and review old vocabulary.
4) Review all new grammar and consult your grammar books for reinforcement whenever necessary.
5) Practice new morphology in connection with previously covered materials, especially in preparation for quizzes.
6) Prepare a list of questions to be asked in class if you have any problems, e.g. with
translating or understanding grammatical constructions.

There will be a quiz each class, which will cover either 1) the vocabulary of the chapter or 2) a major grammatical construction introduced in the chapter. No "make-ups" of daily quizzes are available.

We will have four exams. The first exam will cover Chapters I-V, the second Chapters VI-IX, the third Chapters X-XII, and the final exam Chapters XIII-XV. The exams will test memorization of forms, comprehension of grammatical concepts, and translation of passages from each of the chapters covered. The exams (including the Final) will not be cumulative, since the subject itself is cumulative by nature. Absences from an exam are excused only in cases of emergency with appropriate notification in advance to the instructor.

Those who miss the readings, explanations, discussions, queries and suggestions of a class session have handicapped themselves in a number of obvious ways which cannot easily be remedied.

The word latinoamericano emerged in the years following the wars of independence in Spain's former colonies [...] By the late 1850s, californios were writing in newspapers about their membership in América latina (Latin America) and latinoamerica , calling themselves latinos as the shortened name for their hemispheric membership in la raza latina (the Latin race). Reprinting an 1858 opinion piece by a correspondent in Havana on race relations in the Americas, El Clamor Publico of Los Angeles surmised that 'two rival races are competing with each other ... the Anglo Saxon and the Latin one [ la raza latina ].'
