We had a productive summer at DCC, thanks largely to the four wonderful Dickinson students who worked for eight weeks on the project. Here’s a roundup from Alice Ettling (’12) about her accomplishments.
Along with the rest of the group she started out the summer editing the various Latin and Greek vocabulary lists. The Core Greek and Latin lists are now sliced and diced various ways: alphabetically, by parts of speech, by tiered frequency, and by semantic groups. Alice worked particularly on the Latin semantic grouping list and on organizing the Latin and Greek morphology lists.
With the rest of the crew she read Ovid, Amores 1, to prepare for the compilation of its vocabulary lists. She put together PDFs of all the core vocabulary lists, and kept these updated during the last minute editing process.
Alice is also the one who put together the map animations for Caesar, which have gotten so much positive attention. Thanks, Alice, for all your great contributions to the project, and good luck in all your future endeavors!
