OK - Status Report: The Toronto Reference Library has a copy of _From
Latin to Romance in Sound Charts_, but being a reference library I'd
pretty much be forced to make a conRomanceLang in one sitting - no the
most fun thing in the world. Chapters.ca and Indigo.ca both have it,
too, for about $16 and $20 Canadian, respectively.
Should I buy it, or go down to the library and photocopy what I need -
or maybe both?
No where I've looked has had _An Introduction to Vulgar Latin_ so far,
tho.
