Course content
The subject of study of the educational discipline "Latin" is the phonetics, grammar and vocabulary of the Latin language, because a significant part of the vocabulary of the modern English language consists of words of Latin origin, borrowed at various historical stages. An important place is occupied by the study of Latin affixes as part of the word-formation system of the English language, as well as the consideration of Latin phraseology and aphorisms, which function in various types of English discourse.
