took it for 4 years in highschool. if you all just started, everything stays similar to the basics.

tinal
natil
nital
or even, tinla.

im taking latin 4 right now and its by far my favorite class. our teacher is the absolute man. he graduated from yale and got his PHD there, and studied for a few years at oxford. hes probably the smartest person i know, as well as most knowledgeable. its really not even a latin class, but more of a roman history

Yup, similar.  It does get easier as time goes on, you just need to put the time in.  It is pretty cool to know Latin though, makes you sound all smart and shit.  I just had a quiz this morning actually.

When I was in high school Latin was a joke

My friend in latin 3/4 said all they did was watch movies and have one kid do the homework and everyone else copied it

Pretty much the easiest class ever at my high school
