Learn Latin with Beginner Stories - De Viris Illustribus: Interlinear Latin to English

The HypLern project has been creating manually word-for-word translated language material since 2006. The aim of our project is to allow students to start reading the language of their choice immediately, and expand their vocabulary fast.

This book contains the history of Rome told in the work De Viris Illustribus (On Famous Men), in Latin.

We have added an interlinear translation to the Latin text. This means that the meaning of every Latin word is immediately accessible, which in turn will make it much easier for you to expand your Latin vocabulary fast.

How to learn Latin using this methodUse the following method to attain new Latin vocabulary fast and easy. Read the stories and re-read them until you know almost all the words. This is a fast process because there's no lookup time. Then focus on the remaining words that you still don't know by marking those in the text, for example. Because of the literal and idiomatic interlinear text this is the fastest method to learn to read Latin.

Also, contact us on shop.hyplern.com for non-translated pdf versions of this book with which you can practice reading Latin without the interlinear translation.
