Salvete,
Alright, so this is the situation that I am in with Latin. I took one year of it in high school, but that was all that I was offered and so I continued to study on my own. I go through ups and downs with it, since I lack people to practice it with and talk to about it, which has created a complicated spot where I know more grammar than I do vocabulary. I try to push through text books but I cant stand the repetitive excesses, they become dull.
When I start back up after going through an off period, I obviously find that I lose much of what I had learned. I get the grammar back easily enough after I start using it again but the vocabulary needs to be relearned. Does anyone have advice for learning a lot of vocabulary without having to complete dull text book exercises?
