Modern students' lack of formal training in the grammar even of their own language leads to an impatience with the jargon and rules of syntax in their study of the ancient inflected languages.

The book still challenges anyone with an interest in the classical languages to see them as dynamic, developing entities, not as something fixed or dead.
