Excerpt from Modern Greek Mastery: A Short Road to Ancient GreekThis is not so impossible as those who are familiar only with old-school routine are wont to imagine. Latin is so learned in Catholic seminaries throughout the world, and the result is seen in the practical knowledge of the language which the clergy of that church possess. The study of languages, ancient or modern, is still too much a matter of the eye and too little one of the ear or tongue. The ability to trans late, or even to appreciate the ideas expressed on the printed page without translating, does not constitute knowledge of a language, any more than familiarity with medical terminology makes a physician. True knowledge of a language comes from the mastery of the idiom by ear and tongue and eye, and does not consist in its cognition by the latter alone.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
