I was just wondering, does anyone know any resources for hearing Latin being read aloud
or resources to help speak it? I am aware that there is no practical use for either but I am studying it in school and believe that hearing it spoken and speaking it may make it slightly easier as well as add new depths to my understanding of the language. So does anyone know of any resources to help with this? 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||||||||

Most sources I've found use a non-classical pronunciation, which is not what I'm interested in learning. So I've had to make my own recordings. Do you have Wheelock's or Orberg? If so, I could send you my audio files of these.

As for Ørberg, there’s actually an accompanying audio CD where he himself reads the texts aloud and he has a very
good pronunciation and a charming old man’s voice. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

Yes, I knew that. Alas, I'm cheap. And, hell, I'll admit it--I like listening to myself, masturbatory as that may be.
