The Latin Lovers Thread

<p>agreed..my Vergil class is not AP-sponsored</p>

<p>Yay for Latin! Sadly, there's only 1 Latin teacher in my school, and there's one class for Latin III/IV/V. So no AP for me :( Unless I study lit independently, since we're doing Catullus now, and last year we did Ovid. Has anyone had experience self-studying Latin lit?</p>

<p>Plumdum - if you did Ovid last year and are doing Catullus this year, self-studying Lit should be a breeeeze. Just make sure that you review the Ovid stuff and make sure you covered all of the required poems on the Lit syllabus.</p>

<p>Arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris....</p>

<p>oh...dactylic hexameter...</p>

<p>Oh the memories of Vergil! I had the first 20 lines memorized at one point...
arma virumque cano, Troiae qui primus ab oris
Italiam, fato profugus, Laviniaque venit
litora, multa ille et terris iactatus et alto [lol that one confused me a bit, because I kept thinking the words all elided together.. ehhh]
vi superum saevae memorem Iunonis ob iram.
multa quoque et bello passus, dum conderet urbem,
ummm
can't think. Lol. Something about genus unde Latinam, and then.. something... ends with altae moenia Romae. haha.
K wow I need to go to sleep.</p>

<p>DST ENDS IN ~35 MINUTES! :D</p>

<p>Oh, look at all these Latin noobs on here spouting their useless language. ;)</p>

<p>BAH invoyable. :[</p>
