Okay. I've been lazy with the study notes. The General Grammar section of Sister Miriam Joseph's The Trivium felt particularly taxing at times. But I'm happy to say that I have reassessed how I'll be approaching the matter. It can be a bit difficult to track down quality guides and study materials, but I think I've found some solid sources to at least give a bit of guidance. Here's Source #1, Source #2, and Source #3.
I'm currently only working with Source #1, but Source #2 has some really cool texts I'm eager to read. I'm on my final review of Chapter 3: General Grammar of The Trivium. I can attest that rereading has certainly helped to embed the material much better in my mind than I would've previously thought considering the struggles I had attempting to comprehend it the first time through.
After I finish the final read of Chapter 3 I'll probably attempt a post more-or-less from memory about the basics of General Grammar: Categorematic words, Syncategorematic words, Substantives, Attributives, Copulas, etc.
As for Lycurgus, hope to have that out tomorrow. I decided to take some extra time to re-read it since I'm finding it difficult to wrap my head around Plutarch's text. I think I've gotten a bit more the second time around.
Well, that's all for now. Bye!
