A Pronunciation Dictionary for Classical Latin
A scholarly reference book that reconstructs the pronunciation of Classical Latin lemma by lemma.
Field notes
The project treats pronunciation as a series of philological judgments rather than a classroom mnemonic system. Its stated evidence base includes Latin grammarians, inscriptions, and the Romance languages that descended from spoken Latin. The volume reportedly adds an introduction to Latin writing and unresolved questions in Latin phonetics and phonology, while the website deliberately keeps the complete lemma-by-lemma dictionary in print and provides only an extract for inspection.
