Introduction, pronunciation, gods

PRONUNCIATION The Latin alphabet is like ours except that it does not have j and w. The letters k, y and z are rare. They mostly appear in words of foreign origin. All letters are sounded. There are no silent letters.

Consonants Most consonants are exactly like English. The most important exceptions are: V is pronounced like w !!!! C is always hard, as in cat. G is always hard, as in goat. R is “trilled”. i before a vowel is usually a consonant & sounds like y – Vestavia, vomit, vēnī, vīdī, vīcī – Gāius Iūlius Caesar – Cavē canem! (beware the dog.) – Iuppiter, Iūnō, Roma – phocus, theatrum

VOWELS There are long and short vowels. ā as in father. a as in Dinah ē as in they (English “long a”) e as in pet ī as in machine (English “long e”) i as in pin. ō as in clover. o as in off ū as in rude. u as in put. – vēnī, vīdī, vīcī

DIPHTHONGS Combinations of vowels ae as in aisle (English “long i”) There are several other diphthongs that we will learn about as we go along. – Gaius Iulius Caesar – Graecia

– Salvē (hello to one person) – Salvēte (hello to more than one person) – Valē (farewell to one person) – Valēte (farewell to more than one person) – Avē atque valē (hail and farewell)
