I think one of the most important things my teachers stressed when it came to writing texts was that you should use connectives - your essay/text/whatever will be easier to read if you don’t start every sentence with “and” and actually connect your sentences. So here are a few words you can use to structure your text.

I’ve had to start learning Latin for my course and it turns out that learning an ancient language is pretty different to learning a modern one.

When I started Spanish I started off with colours and stuff.

In Latin we’ve gone straight into this

“THE TROJANS ATTACKED THE GREEK SHIPS AND BURNT THEM. HECTOR KILLED PATROCLUS WITH A SPEAR.”

I can’t tell you my name in Latin but I can explain murder very well
