Die Prasentation der lateinischen Vokabeln und ihrer deutschen Bedeutungen unterliegt keinem akademischen Systemzwang, sondern nimmt immer diejenige Gestalt an, die von Schelern am leichtesten zu verstehen und umzusetzen ist. In fenf vollstandigen Durchgangen von Klasse 8 bis 13 wurde das Manuskript immer wieder von Schelern mehrerer niedersachsischer Gymnasien verbessert, bevor es in den Druck ging.
