Week 83 Vocabulary Review

For the vocabulary practice this week, I picked sayings that either have SOV (subject-object-verb) word order or OV (object-verb), where the subject is not expressed directly. Latin has free word order, but this is the most common sentence pattern in Latin, and it's not a pattern you find in English, so it's good to practice!

For each saying in the slideshow, you will try to supply the missing word. You can check yourself by looking at the cat slide that follows the slide with the missing word(s). You can also begin at the end and work backwards, giving yourself a different kind of quiz: seeing the slide without English and trying to supply the English, checking your answer on the next slide, reviewing with the cat slide, and then seeing if you can fill in the blank. 

Plus don't forget: on the slides that contain the English translation, the English is linked to the original blog post if you want some help in understanding the grammar of the saying.

I also made a printable crossword PDF as usual, and the same prompts for the crossword and slieshow are used in the quiz questions below. Enjoy!
