I teach Latin and Greek at a local community college. It would be very
helpful if I could show my students Latin and Greek sentences in a
traditional sentence diagram. Is there some way to rotate and underline
words quickly and easily?

Thanks

I'd use lines and individual textboxes. I don't think it would be that hard
if done that way.
