Cor metallicum discindere difficile est!! That's "a metal heart is hard to tear apart" in Latin...it's gonna be on the back of HammerFall's new shirt! I must get it!!
I looked up the lyrics to The Bells of Notre Dame and I knew there was Latin from Dies Irae in it but when I saw what they were I about died...
Dies irae, dies illa (Day of wrath, that day)
Solvet saeclum in favilla (Shall consume the world in ashes)
Teste David cum sibylla (As prophesied by David and the sibyl)
Quantus tremor est futurus (What trembling is to be)
Quando Judex est venturus (When the Judge is come)
For those who don't know those two lines are in Rhapsody's Agony is my Name. I guess Luca knows about Dies Irae. Whoever told me "quantus tremor est futurus" ment "however trembling is absurd" really didn't know their Latin. They also said "quando Judex est venturus" ment "however Judges are to be trusted"...oook
Here's me being amused by a chicken haha: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6VzNlSslEc
Today's Latin: ceteris paribus (all else being equal)
"Morning in Paris, the city awakes to the bells of Notre Dame!"--"The Bells of Notre Dame"
