Latin

I have always been thinking of methods to help to improve my English. I think that learning Latin could be an effective method as English owes Latin so much. So, I have decided to learn Latin. Anyway, I do not have much time, as I spend most of my spare time reading and learning new words. So, I can only learn one or two Latin words everyday. I will learn more on the weekend.

I would like to know your opinion about this approach. Many thanks. Cheers.

I agree that another language gives you a deeper understanding of the first language, but it's not necessary to learn the other language entirely.  I often chop up words in class and refer to their roots, but this is only to explain a deeper connection to other English words with a similar origin.

Anyway, this is a good example of a lesson in Latin:
