Well, having just read through that thread, I think its posters make some good points regarding the relative weaknesses and strengths of Wheelocks. Due to time constraints I've started and stopped Greek a few times and each time I only succeed in recovering old ground.

Otherwise, you risk losing the hard-won grammar, which is quick to fade from memory without consistent practice. When you say devoting a month or so to Latin, do you mean you intend to finish your book in that time? It's very important that you first finish whatever textbook you're using, and then continue to practice/use your Latin when you start with Greek.

Wheelock alone won't give you a strong competence in Latin, but I think that Lingua Latina can be profitably combined with it to give you a combination of reading fluency and grammatical literacy. "Lingua Latina" is also good in a very different way. Since you're studying on your own, having answer keys would be useful, too. I'm not sure what you mean by "awkward, unauthentic wording," but I found Wheelock's a good Latin textbook and it was what I used to learn the rudiments of the language. My question is: Is there a textbook as rigorous and thorough as Intensive that also includes an answer key? If not, would you recommend using Intensive despite this flaw? I am prone to mistakes and I don't want t do anything that will hinder my progress. This is a major drawback because I will be doing this completely without a teacher.

For Greek, I already know I want to use both Introduction to Attic Greek and Reading Greek in conjunction as to obtain the best of grammar practice and reading respectively. I want to begin with Latin for a month or so, and then follow up with Greek. I am determined to plunge into learning these languages and have fun with it. I have done a lot of research on the internet regarding the difficulties of both languages and the recommended textbooks of each.
