Weekly Words
Every week, five (5) words are selected from CTCWeb's Global Glossary as "My Words of the Week." These five words are closely associated with a person, place, or event from Greco-Roman literature, art, philosophy, law, mythology, science, or history. Review the "Words of the Week" to test and enlarge your Classics vocabulary and to explore the Classical World on the Web through the Global Glossary.

Each "Word of the Week" is linked to its Global Glossary entry. Entries include generous cross-references to other Glossary entries, and each entry is linked to one or more other definitive resources online. When applicable, links to images and translations of primary text are provided. Because AbleMedia chooses to provide links to only the most credible online resources, educators can be confident that Global Glossary links connect only to authoritative and scholarly works.
