This is our last week of a great year. Our final history essays will deal with the good and bad of Roman emperors. Students will get various Latin assessments to determine the recipients of SPQR awards.
Make-up days for students any missing work are June 1st and 2nd; otherwise students’ last day is May 29th.
Mr. Davis
We have an important curriculum meeting on Thursday night at 7 pm.
“[T]here is a long and healthy tradition of daft sentences in Latin courses. The whole point of the daft sentence is that its meaning cannot be anticipated. It forces you to pay close attention to the Latin.”
~Peter Jones, Learn Latin
Today we did our second daft dialogue. The grammar was straightforward with an emphasis on adjectives.
Sol- Nebula mala stultum formosum laudat.
Penilunium- Stulti omnes trans crustulum ire malunt.
Sol- Crustulum noster foliam miseram aedificare vult.
Penilunium- Foliae fortes saepe circum mulum bonum ambulant
Sol- Mulus malus tuus te rogat si tunica longa iram parvam portat.
Penilunium- Tunicae formosae me terrent. Igitur pantherae multae officum tuum laudant.
Sol- Poena magna te vocat. Veni mecum ad crustulum magnum in caelo parvo.
English
Sun- The evil haze praises the beautiful fool.
Full Moon- All fools prefer to go across the cookie.
Sun- Our cookie wants to build an unhappy leaf.
Full Moon- The brave leaves often travel around the good mule.
Sol- Your evil mule asks you if the long dress carries small anger.
Full Moon- Beautiful dresses scare me. Therefore many panthers praise your service.
Sol- Great punishment summons you. Come with me to the great cookie in the small sky.
Mr. D
