Latin Synonyms

Latin Synonyms: Defined From Two Standpoints is a book written by Robert William Douthat and published in 1907. The book is a comprehensive guide to the synonyms of the Latin language, defined from two different perspectives. The first standpoint is that of classical Latin, which refers to the language as it was spoken by the ancient Romans.

The first part provides definitions of the synonyms from the classical standpoint, while the second part provides definitions from the ecclesiastical standpoint. Each section contains a list of synonyms with their definitions, followed by examples of their usage in context. The book also includes a detailed introduction that provides a brief history of the Latin language and its development over time. It also discusses the importance of understanding synonyms in Latin, as they can often have subtle differences in meaning that can greatly affect the interpretation of a text. Overall, Latin Synonyms: Defined From Two Standpoints is a valuable resource for anyone studying Latin, whether for academic or personal reasons.
