As the title says, Latin is the language ( tongue ) of the best
Post any and all of your Latin quotes and/or mottos here
Also try and find translations, if you cant DO NOT USE ONLINE LATIN TRANSLATORS
. I, myself know some Latin and know someone who is actually a teacher in the Language ( nearly 15years worth ).
some of mine are E Pluribis unam which means One From Many this actually shows up on American money frequently Amicus Versus Rara Avis : A true friend is a rare bird. or for us A true friend is a rare find. Non Sequitur : Does not Follow, normally pointed at Non sequential humor, since it normally doesnt make sense Malis Avibus : Bad Bird. or for us Bad Omen
One of my all time favorites mostly because it was said hundreds if not thousands of times over int he Flavian Amphitheatre ( Roman Colosseum ) is: Morituri Te Salutamus : We, who are about to die, salute you.

Germans better. End of discussion. DAS ENDE! Nah but really Latin looks confusing to me my German teacher is new this year and uses the Latin teachers room. I always just kinda assumed Latin was a loose language where there is not a lot of grammar, Guess I'm wrong.

lol, not trying to be rude but you are VERY wrong
German is actually based on Latin in a small way, and so is English, albeit its more along the lines of 60% and not a small way.., not mention a large amount of other languages in today's world
Heck an example would be : Forum cras iam. which means, I will go to the forum tomorrow. That is the future tense, there are 2 ways to know that, one is cras, which means tomorrow, and "am" which is the first person Io which means "I go"
an example of the imperfect tense is : Pecuniam euis dabam, pro servis. which means I was giving him the money, for the slave. Imperfect is always noticed by ba
Latin is a very well structured language, although, it does have its share of strange words...

I know I am wrong. I was just saying i used to think of Latin like that when I was younger. I guess it was because I always heard people say "This word is actually Latin" and really never heard anyone talk about Latin like you could make comprehensive sentences out of it. But I stopped believing that when I went to Jr high lol and I'm a senior in high school now.

We don't need no education!
We don't need no thought control,
No dark sarcasm in the classroom!
Teachers leave them kids alone,
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
Canis meus id comedit: my dog ate it
Ita erat quando hic adveni: it was that way when i got here.
Braccae tuae aperiunter
Nullo modo: no way
Fors fortis:
Labra lege: read my lips.
Si hoc adfixum in obice legere potes, et liberaliter educatus et nimis propinquus ades: if you can read this bumper sticker you are very well-educated and much too close.
i have fogotten more than half the meanings... but for some reason the saying stayed... so maybe persistent teachers do have their uses...
