Thanks for the feedback! As you noticed, the drills are more about syntax than reading comprehension, and your understanding of syntax is solid. It might be challenging to come up with multiple correct translations of each Latin exercise, but I will give some thought to how it might be done.


One way I've done that in the past is asking explicit questions about the syntax, like:

> "If filiae is nominative, how would you translate the sentence?"

or

> What cases could agricolae be here?

if you want to introduce the context sensitivity of the grammar.


Those are two great ideas for question formats. I will likely try to work those into future quizzes. Thanks for checking out the site!


Sure! It's good stuff.
