This volume is the completely reset Second Edition of Jeanne Marie Neumann's A College Companion (Focus, 2008). It offers a running exposition, in English, of the Latin grammar covered in Hans H. orberg's Familia Romana, and includes the complete text of the orberg ancillaries Grammatica Latina and Latin-English Vocabulary. It also serves as a substitute for orberg's Latine Disco, on which it is based.

As it includes no exercises, however, it is not a substitute for the orberg ancillary Exercitia Latina I. Though designed especially for those approaching Familia Romana at an accelerated pace, this volume will be useful to anyone seeking an explicit layout of Familia Romana's inductively-presented grammar.

In addition to many revisions of the text, the Second Edition also includes new units on cultural context, tied to the narrative content of the chapter.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Jeanne Marie Neumann's work is praised as a valuable ancillary for both teachers and students using Ørberg's Familia Romana. It is recognised for synthesising language teaching research with practical experience, effectively replacing Ørberg's original three-volume ancillaries in English-speaking regions. The Companion encourages studying alongside the original text to deepen metalinguistic understanding after initial exposure to Latin morphology, syntax, and vocabulary, serving as an additional aid to clarify grammar within the reading process.
