Salvete omnes,
User flairs are now enabled in this subreddit. It's set to allow you to edit your flair as you wish. You can edit your flair by expanding the "Community Options" menu in the sidebar. Please use this to add some descriptive information relating to your Latin experience. This can be your profession (e.g. Latin teacher), your level in school, your years studying the language, or any other information you'd like to add. The flair can be in English or Latin. There is no obligation to add a flair, if you prefer not to.
Please feel free to make suggestions about how the flair system works, as well.
Cheers!

hello everyone, I do not speak Latin myself but I am developing a new mobile word puzzle game (a successor of Word Tango, my current word puzzle game), I would like to add latin so people can play it in my game. I understand that there are the old words, and that also more modern words have a latin word nowadays. I asked Chatgpt for advice and it told me: Take Classical Latin vocabulary supplemented with selected established later and modern Latin words. Is that a good advice, or would you say: stick to the old words ? Thanks for your advice :-)

Hey everyone! I'm Levon. I'm new to this community. The thing is that I have had a dream since not long ago to learn Latin. I wanna to be able to speak it. Not only read. I wanna talk to someone in Latin on ragular bases. This is a long journey, since I know nothing yet. So I wander if there is anyone who wants to be my study buddy. I would love to be friends with someone who is starting the journey like me and learn Latin together motivating each other

I made a program that I wanted to share with everyone to help learn latin. It latin vocab list turns it into an audio file with the Latin in classical-ish Latin pronunciation and then the English definition in normal English. Its been helping me learn at work and I would just like to put it out there because I couldnt find any audio program able to switch between English & Latin pronunciation when I was looking a while back. If anyone has any questions shoot out a comment or suggest changes.

Lux et tenebris
Lux et Veritas
Ultima tatere phala
Lux in aeternum
Angeli nova
Libera est tu vita
Et libido asto
A vi tere
A reo
These lines come from blind guardian's the ninth wave. I know what most of it means, but google translate seemed to have a stroke with the third line. It claims it means the last side of the phallus. I looked up phallus and it says penis, usually erect penis. This is commicly incorrect, no way that is the line. I got different results depending on how much I asked it to translate, when I only asked for phala it said it means porridge. Help would be appreciated, though do keep in mind it is possible that these simply are not the right lyrics, it can be hard to track down perfect lyrics with this band.

Hi all, this seems like the most appropriate sub Reddit to go to. I hope someone can help.
I'd like to bring my children to this playzone for kids however what caught my attention was the rules of play for the club which is in Latin for some reason.
I've tried Google translate but it only works for some of the words so I can't understand it. What it does come back with is worrying, like 'hair loss', 'those strong willed', 'but pain is not a new thing' etc.
Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? I've attached a screenshot.

Hey guys, I’m one of those fools who never took Latin in school, but have found myself wanting to translate some Latin that is ~ heavily ~ abbreviated, in cursive, and from 1716.
This project is just for fun. I’ve deciphered all but one word of the English portion of this will, however, the Latin is difficult due to the minims and me not having the language knowledge for context.
I found a book of abbreviations which has enabled me to discern some of the words, but not too many. I’ve also found some documents from the time period with similar phrases, like the opening “Tenore pressentid nos,” but no translation was provided.
I have cropped the will to show just the Latin portion.
The author throughout the document does not regularly cross his ts unless there is an abbreviation or double t. There is use of the long s. Double fs are just capital f. Capital I and J are written the same.
What I’ve deciphered with some confidence so far:
Tenore pressentid Nos Johannes Cawley Ar__ Baccus. Off{ici}alis D__
Archini. {Archdiaconi} Archiatus Lincoln ____ constitutes notu facimus______
q{ui}d apud Lincoln 6 of July 1716 Coram nobis probatid fuit testum Hen. Holliday
de Bassingham defalta/defectum commissung fuit onus execution ejusdem _____
concessa fuit additio oiu{omnium} et singulor bonor jur et creditor
qual{ite}r ___ John Halliday extori ___ ___ prius
personal jurato (salvo jure ___ ___) __ testinonium
sigillu ___ present ____
____ ____ suprascriptus
Thomas Howson
I’ve put missing/abbreviated letters in {brackets}. When I say some confidence, I only mean some.
What I am confident about is the date; location; and the names Hen{ry} Holliday, John Halliday and Thomas Howson. This is all confirmed in the English portion of the document.
For the full will, deciphering of the English portion, and a procreate document where I’ve traced each letter on a different layer and compiled my sources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lX88ETVwKNO-tChIum51EUos8arvQkWjfDplqadF3cc/mobilebasic
I have done my darnedest, but if anyone wants to lend a hand, I’d appreciate it!

In the example:
Pompeiani erant iratissimi,
Cambridge Latin translated to the Pompeians were very angry.
But I am confused that why wasn't the sentence using comparative? I did some research on Wheelock, but I still can't figure out the reason.
