Latin Declension Quizzes
One of largest hurtles for those beginning to learning Latin is memorizing the many declensions (i.e word endings) of Latin. There is no way to get aground learning these declensions to make progress in the language, and the Dowling Method recommends memorizing all the declension forms before attempting to read Latin passages. The quizzes listed below aims at helping the memorization process by providing quizzes for common forms of nouns, adjectives, and pronouns.
These quizzes are based on the declination tables at the back of Wheelock's Lain by Frederic M. Wheelock. Please email me at mail@joshualiu.org for any suggestions, corrections, or concerns.
