Free (the) Reference Grammars: Greek and Latin Edition

There was a time when peppering your speech with some Classical quotes was a guaranteed way to look like an uber-educated prick. That time has passed. Nowadays, dropping some classical Greek or Latin at the bar is about as cool as knowing all the episode titles of Babylon 5.

I suppose languages are not immune to the rise and fall of fashions. But Latin and Greek literature is still part of the foundation of Western culture and thought, and dedicated language learners rarely follow anyone's fashions but their own.  So, if you're one of those who always wanted to read Homer or Virgil in the original, you may want to check out www.textkit.com.

These are the sort of people doing what I consider the good work: making public domain knowledge available to everyone easily and for free. There are also forums for people to connect with others who also enjoy wrestling with declensions and conjugations.

So, if your Ovid jokes aren't exactly killing the crowd at happy hour, this might be the place for you.
