Excerpt from The Mastery Series: Latin 7, - Considering that sentences constitute language, speech is nothing more than the diversification of a stock of mastered sen tenoes. The process is very tedious in infancy; but when a child eight or ten years old is thrown entirely on its own resources, and has to pick up at haphazard, to discriminate, to interpret, to analyse, and to master a stock of useful sentences from amongst the rapid and puzzling utterances of foreigners, its profusion of idiomatic speech at the end of three months, is a marvel, the sources of which have been left too long unexplored.
