  • Post-production, we realized that an important piece of information and accompanying chart about third-conjugation-iōverbs was mistakenly omitted from chapter 14 of Latin Alive! Book 1 Revised Edition. We have supplied here a PDF of the corrected chapter for your use. The correction was made to p. 135.
