4Learn the Language of the Church  Jul 13, 2010
This is an excellent book for the study of Ecclesiastical Latin. My study is with a small group and teacher. The Answer Key book by John R. Dunlap is a must-have companion for me.

5THE book for Latin studies  Mar 20, 2010
After using other books to learn Latin, Collin's book is THE book to get. Extremely well laid out. Definitely get Dunlap's "Answers" book to go with it as Collins doesn't provide this in his book. Worth adding would also be Stelten's "Dictionary of Ecclesiastical Latin." Simplicimus (sp.) has a great website for learning Ecclesiastical Latin. I used these to master reading Church Latin for a graduate language reading exam. Good Luck!

4A Primer of Ecclesiastical Latin  Jan 07, 2010
I needed refresher after being away from the language for many years.

This primer met the bill. Very good on cases, tenses, moods etc. Will help me

in translating some parts of my old " Missale Romanum". I would recommend

this text to those willing to go back in time to translate old Church

documents.

5Primer of Ecclesiastical Latin  Jun 04, 2009
Good for anyone learning Eccl Latin as opposed to Classical Latin. Morphology, rules are important for apparati and Latin notes which cover most Eccl references including BHS and Greek. Not just for Catholics. All Christian origins, reformation and others would benefit from knowledge of this language.

5Readable, Easy to Follow, Extremely Useful  May 02, 2009
If you have had one or two highschool or college semesters of Latin then this book is very easy to use to learn, as a refresher, and as a morphology reference if you want to ready the Vulgate Bible, or any Christian Latin. I have also used Wheelock's and feel that this book is stand alone more focused on Christian Latin, and therefore more useful if therein your interest lies. Quite Frankly, if you should later choose to focus on the ancients like Cicero or Seneca, then Wheelock's would serve as an excellent refresher and would supplement what you have learned in this book, making classical Latin a snap.
