Your brain is a patÂtern-matchÂing machine. It was built to acquire lanÂguage. It doesÂn’t need to be forced; it needs to be fed.
Every time you read or lisÂten to a stoÂry in Latin, you are givÂing your brain the raw mateÂrÂiÂal it craves. You’re feedÂing it patÂterns, sounds, and conÂtext. It will do the hard work of buildÂing the conÂnecÂtions for you, often while you sleep.
So, don’t think of it as work. Think of it as nourÂishÂment. What stoÂry will you feed your brain today?
