Pocket GCSE Latin Etymological Lexicon - Paperback

by Caroline K. MacKenzie (Author)

An essential tool for the learning of Latin, based around the GCSE word lists of OCR and WJEC. Each Latin word is translated and given a set of derivatives, some common and others less so. Space is given for readers to annotate as they learn - and note other derivatives they may come across too!

A concise introduction and a glossary of Latin in common usage combine to make this a vade mecum for all learners of Latin as well as cruciverbalists. The text is imaginatively punctuated by 20 illustrations by Amanda Short.
