Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
Endorsed by OCR and Eduqas, this popular Latin course for students aged 11-16 is breathing new life into Latin teaching and learning.
de Romanis is a vibrant and accessible introduction to both the Latin language and the cultural world of the Romans.
Building on the progression of Books 1 and 2, Book 3 continues to support language learning through clear and flexible explanation and exercises, giving students everything they need to continue to Latin GCSE and prepare for A Level. Going beyond language learning, this is the only book to guide students through the skills needed to read original Latin works, across different periods and genres, preparing them to study the set texts at GCSE and beyond.
What makes de Romanis so special?
- Language learning is split between Core and Additional to ensure effective differentiation and flexible timetabling.
- Fun and varied exercises include word identification, word manipulation and source analysis to encourage wider discussion.
- Vocabulary is consistently consolidated, and the clear and systematic explanations of grammar encourage steady progress to GCSE and beyond.
- New to Book 3, each chapter ends with a section of original or very lightly adapted Latin texts with parallel idiomatic translations and full translation support.
- The course is supported by over 300 additional online resources to support your teaching.
In Book 3 students meet the greatest of Latin authors: eyewitnesses, historians and poets. Cicero and Caesar document the Civil War through letters and histories. The epic poetry of Ovid and Virgil encapsulates a new era of social commentary through the veil of myth. The emperors are brought to life by their biographers and correspondents Suetonius, Tacitus and Pliny; and the daily lives and loves of ancient Rome are captured in the poetry of Catullus, Tibullus, Martial and Horace.
