Editorial Review:Product Description:Repetitio est mater memoriae (repetition is the mother of memory): these vocabulary cards allow students an easy way to memorize Latin vocabulary words as they appear in each chapter of Wheelocks Latin, one of the most popular first-year Latin books of all time. Students can memorize Latin to English or English to Latin, and use the cards to help them memorize the full lexical forms of the Latin vocabulary words. These cards make vocabulary review a snap! A convenient cross-index of cards helps students locate the number of a particular card; a summary of grammatical forms from Wheelocks Latin allows students faster and easier access to these references while studying.

The "cards" match Wheelock, and should work great for their designed purpose. However, the individuals who approved these for production and sale at the publisher, Bolchazy-Carducci, should be horsewhipped or complained about to the FTC for calling these cards.

The cards are fine as long as you have a decent box to put them in to keep them from getting smashed or torn.

Dough one could of course have wished for better paper quality etc., it doesn't really matter. They'll easily take the kind of abuse which results from ordinary use; and, besides, you shouldn't really care how the cards look once you're through with them anyway: their purpose is simply to allow you to increase your Latin vocabulary - not to become heirlooms.

The cards themselves are good because they are based on the excellent Wheelock text. They are numbered and also show the Chapter number in which the word was first introduced. However, you must separate them from the pages yourself and I found the perforations to be insufficient. I spent many hours getting them separated and making the two little boxes from the pages provided. All in all I would recommend against these and suggest you get a standard set of pre-made Latin flash cards from Vis-Ed or ...
