Kudos to the seller! They called this "very good" condition. I call it "brand freakin' new". Couldn't be happier with the condition that this book arrived in! Now I'm indulging my inner word-nerd who took two years of Latin in High School. This dictionary has all of the background information that my "pocket" paperback Latin dictionary never had room for. I'm loving it!
This is a far better value than the Oxford Latin Desk Dictionary for about the same price. (See my review of that book.) It doesn't come up to the standard of the great Lewis & Short work, but for less than 1/10 the cost, it's a good deal. Note the differences in the entry for the latin coepi: Oxford Desk: coepi, issi coeptum v ir begin (with a parenthetical note to differentiated usage re incipio in classical Latin.) Casssell's: coepio, coepere coepi coeptum (the present tenses ante-class., being replaced by those from incipio; the perfect-stem tenses, supine, etc., are class.; derived from the obs. verb apio, to begin, commence. (I) act., coepi = I have begun or I began; fut. part. coepturus; absol,: dies coepit, Sall.; with acc.: orationem, Tac., coepturos bellum ..... etc., with numerous further examples from classical Latin writers and a following section (2) covering passive usage in the same manner. The general type face is a little bit smaller than the Oxford Desk, but it doesn't matter because the paper quality is so much better that the type is clear and readable. (Some sections of the oxford are much smaller type face still, almost to the point of illegibility.) Specialists with deep pockets will want to go whole hog for the more than $200 Lewis & Short, but for under $20 the Cassell's will be all a normal student needs -- within the classical period. Medieval/church Latin is a different proposition.
This comes in 2nd (being very close to 3rd) of the three latin dictionaries i have. Why? There is a tendency to list the same Latin word as different words depending on how its conjugated. ex: The Masculine, feminine And neuter are three separate words because their meaning slightly varies. Meaning if you are to look up the root of the word, the 3 conjugates are not beside it, but defined as separate words. This book has this, and has more words, with more detail than the "Oxford Latin Desk Dictionary" thats why Oxford is in 3rd place, because it uses "common" words and not "specific" latin words. The "New College Latin And English dictionary" gives the root word ALONE, then lists the conjugates and their various definition along in the single word definition. So by the time you look up the first letters of the word, you know all three meanings instead of looking up the specific word itself and its conjugated meaning. IF YOU PREFER A DICTIONARY TO LOOK UP THE EXACT WORD YOU SEE WITHOUT ITS OTHER CONJUGATED MEANINGS, THIS BOOK IS IN FIRST.
This volume is an excellent research tool. Its listing of both English and Latin words is fairly exhaustive. The only additional thing I could wish for would be a section specifically for notable Latin phrases. Highly recommended.
The book is very good, pristine condition. It is handy for my latin class.
Another great foreign language dictionary . Although you may never hear people speaking Latin today, Latin words and phrases appear in all kinds of modern writings. Ever hear or see those medical terms from your doctor ,? Ever get a booklet or pamphlet from a medical source and say "Huh?" Look it up and try to understand these terms at home.I love to read about Greek and Roman history. Many words are interesting, and if I could understand the Latin, that skill would make my reading more enjoyable. I am planning to add a Greek-E...E-Greek dictionary to my home library.I will be collecting as many other such dictionaries as I can to further my need for lifelong learning.
This dictionary is really cheap, and even has proper nouns! It's the first dictionary I've ever owned, but some useful features I've found are: it gives the basic meaning of the word, then lists literal and figurative/transferred meanings; it quotes Latin to help give the meaning of words; it has tabs on the side indicating where letters are located in the book, making it faster to find words; for compound words, it lists the component words e.g. comes -itis c. (cum/eo) and also, if the word came from Greek, the Greek word it came from; it also indicates short and long vowels. The only downside is that it's not for beginners. It assumes you have complete knowledge of grammar, as there are no grammar tables, and also assumes you have some understanding of the vocab, e.g. it doesn't list irregular verb parts.
There are so many exceptions to pronunciation in Italian. It would be nice if they went back to putting all the pronunciation symbols in for all the words. Did not like the fact that the newest version does not have the thumb tabs. I really miss the thumb tabs so much that I gave this one away and bought an older version that does have the tabs.

Get more out of your Latin
The best thing about this dictionary, and the thing that sets it above my Pocket Oxford and Collins dictionaries, is the amount of detail given for each Latin word. Rather than just listing possible translations, Cassell's lists a word's literal and figurative meanings and also gives examples of its use, making it far easier to find a precise sense. While the dictionary has an English-Latin section, the emphasis (quite rightly) is on the Latin-English, with more than two-thirds of the book dedicated to the Latin. There is no grammar section, and irregular parts of verbs rarely have their own headwords, so Latin improvers (or duffers like me - caught out by mansum once too often) will still benefit from owning the Collins dictionary, which is very strong on irregular verbs. Overall though, Cassell's is excellent value if you want to get more out of your Latin.

Best medium-sized Latin dictionary
Cassell's is the best medium-sized Latin dictionary I have come across. My Collin's Latin dictionary was severely lacking in detail about word uses (in particular, it often omitted information about the case of noun taken by verbs and prepositions). I have found Cassell's to be an excellent upgrade, providing apt information about word use, a detailed English-Latin section, and example uses of words by Classical authors. I discovered Cassell's in my last year of A level and only wish I had found it sooner!

There are two main types of ballroom dance – standard and Latin . While the steps might be broadly similar, the two dances have very different styles. If you’re new to ballroom dance, it can be tricky to know which style to choose.
This blog post will help you understand the key differences between standard and Latin ballroom dancing.
Ballroom Dance is Classified into two categories – standard dances, also called smooth, and Latin dances, also called rhythm dance.
The modern standard dances include Waltz, Foxtrot, Tango, Quickstep, and Viennese Waltz, and the Latin American Dances include Rumba, Cha Cha Cha, Samba, Jive, Swing dance , and Pasodoble.
The main difference between standard and Latin dance is the frame, body movement, music, and timing.
Standard dancing uses what is called a closed frame, where the partners face each other with the lady resting her left arm on the man’s right shoulder.
The man places his right hand on the lady’s left shoulder blade, and the men left-hand holds the lady’s right.
This position is always maintained in standard dances.
The dancers in Latin dances alternate between several holds based on the requirements of the dance.
They can have an open hold, a closed hold, a double handhold, or a single handhold.
The dance technique you choose will be determined by the range of dance moves.
Latin dance is a dynamic, passionate form that combines the fluid movement of Latin music with elegant body shapes and poses to create choreography.
Body movement for Latin dance is a mixture of Cuban motion with hips, shifting of the knees, and upper body isolations.
For standard dances, Your body must move in contra body movement (CBM) and foot gliding.
Contra body movement is the turning of the body (hips and shoulders) against the movement of the legs: either moving forward with the right foot and the left hip and shoulder or vice versa.
Latin dances have very different music and timing.
Standard dancing has a slow and graceful pace, where the two partners glide across the room effortlessly with the music.
Latin dances have a much faster pace, and they are fun and lighthearted.
Most of the time, Latin dances do not travel the room.
Latin can have high energy and hip action in addition to the footwork.
Both Latin dance and standard dance have different steps and techniques. However, they are both a lot of fun when you get the hang of it!
If you are unsure about the different styles, we recommend starting with Standard dance to become familiar with the movement and how it feels. You can then try Latin when you’re ready!

Before you take any dance classes , it’s important to first consult with your dance instructor and get their professional advice.
Different dance instructors may specialize in different types of dances, so it’s crucial that you get personalized advice depending on your individual goals and interests.
That being said, most dance instructors will generally recommend starting with the basics – like Waltz or Rumba – before branching out into more specialized styles of dance. So if you’re unsure about which type of dance to take first, it’s best to ask your instructor for their expert opinion.
