<p>Repetitio mater studiorum-Repitition is the mother of learning</p>
<p>No, vice isn't a latin word. </p>
<p>I use this one a lot: Ave atque vale (hail and farewell)
Noli nuntium necare (don't kill the messenger, but it sounds so much better in latin)
Lux et veritas (Well, we'll see if i still like that one in four days)</p>
<p>Things you probably know the letters for but don't know what they mean:
ie - id est (That is...)
eg - exemplum gratium (free example = for example)</p>

<blockquote> <p>No, vice isn't a latin word.<<</p> </blockquote>
<br>
<p>Sure it is. It's the ablative form of vicis - meaning change or alteration. As in "vice versa" --> with the order changed.</p>
<p>dum spiro spero- I hope as long as I breathe. </p>
<p>esse quam videri- To be rather than to seem</p>
<p>Cogito ergo sum!
I think therefore i am</p>
<p>Sic transit gloria mundi</p>
<p>often said to Roman Emperors when they were crowned and to Popes and should be told to many cc'er's :-)</p>
<p>cogito ergo sum's a favourite. rem acu tetigisti also works quite well at times. :)</p>
<p>Masterus...you don't have to understand the grammatical concepts of the Latin to appreciate the beauty of the phrase. Please don't look down upon us poor plebeians. It is most unbecoming.</p>
<p>Respice post te, hominem te memento. Do you honestly need a Praetorian Guard?</p>
