As a continuance of my drive to learn Latin and Greek, I have made it my goal to lean 20 or so words per week in both languages. To aid in this, I am going to week a record of what I am learning here.

When I see written latin, I think that I may be able to pick it up pretty fast (being latino and all).
Greek looks scarier though…
