Got Latin?
Sep. 13th, 2006 04:35 pmSomeone posted a song lyric that said "Mi fili, veni, veni, veni, mi fili" and the translation said "My children, come, come, come, my children." Huh?! Fili isn't children! The correct translation is "my sons, come, come, come, my sons." I'm not sure if veni here is in the past tense or if it's a command. It sounds better as a command though...
Salerno's last night was fun...I finally got a pic of Magister...see the maaaan behind my Latin skill! *is a nerd* Haha
( magister est CLARUM...et bonam! )
Today's Latin: virtus in actionibus consistit (virtue consists in actions). That's sooo true...
"Lepaca draconis nox tarados"--"The Opening," Therion
