How complex is Latin grammar?
Latin Grammar Is Incredibly Hard
If there's one thing that everyone who's studied Latin could agree on, it's that the grammar rules are incredibly hard. The word “declension” is enough to send shivers down one's spine. The word order is arbitrary, each of the verbs has several cases and all the nouns have gender.
What is the best Latin grammar?
Gildersleeve and Lodge is one of the best, and every point made is supported by a quotation from a Roman author. Allen and Greenough is also good. You can find links to online versions of these at the bottom of this article: Latin grammar - Wikipedia.
Does Latin have different grammatical rules to English?
Latin vs English
Latin has multiple grammatical variations on single words, including number and case for nouns as well as time and aspect for verbs. It establishes a relationship between words in a sentence that simply does not exist in English.
Is Latin grammar the same as English grammar?
Forum for Linguistic Studies
English and Latin belong to the same language family (Indo-European language family) (English belongs to Germanic language family, while Latin belongs to Roman language family), so they are different in grammar.
