    We were traveling in Prague and no one around us could speak English or Italian. Then, my aunt tried Latin. All of a sudden, five people came out of the crowd and began speaking to her in Latin. We were just stunned! And to think we had to travel all the way to Prague to get directions in Latin to a museum. Wonders never cease.

      ​@@polyMATHY_Luke I was listening to an audio version of Seneca's letters to Lucilius the other day. Hearing this passage in letter 5, "Quod pertinaciter studes et omnibus omissis hoc unum agis, *ut te meliorem cotidie facias*..." immediately made me think of Captain Picard. I used to watch Star Trek with friends in the early 2000s. While I was never that much into it, Patrick Stewart's character really stood out to me. In fact, I feel like rewatching some of the old episodes now. 😄

    I can tell there is a great relation between Arabic and Latin. Canāmus» let's sing and He sang in Arabic is Ghanna, they sang in Arabic is Ghannu like canu in Welsh. Amor is Gharam. In arabic Gh or Ghayn souns like Ghamma in Greek. Calamus means a reed in latin in Arabic Qalam means a pen (Writing reed used after dipping into ink). Loqui is speaking in Arabic Laghu is speaking too much, Lingua is lugha in Arabic. And hundreds of vocabs. ❤ Thank you teacher. I adore Lingua Latina.

    I should give this a go with quotations from the Vulgate translation of the Bible and the Mass. One personal favorite I could stand to use more often comes from the Preface to the Canon - “vērē dignum et jūstum est.” Tricky to properly pronounce though - look at those final M’s begging to disappear into a nasalized ũ, or the way the terminal -um lends itself so well to elision with following “et” or “est”.
    Sometimes I catch myself saying “fīat lūx” when I turn on the lights. Helps me fear the dark less.

    You talk about the phonemic syllables length, which is probably the first thing you can learn through the poetry. Can you also use it to understand what rhymes with what on the author time and place, and thus recreate the pronounciation? For petry types with rhymes of course, like say Shakespeare.

    • @polyMATHY_Luke

    When I was in college 50 years ago I was not doing well and so took a class in ancient Greek just for fun. One day the teacher was musing about how lots of our languages have these concepts of subjects and verbs and objects and so on, and what might a language be like that had none of those, if it was even possible. Some decades later I saw that Star Trek episode and thought of that, and taped the episode and sent it to him, to show that someone else had wondered about that also. Off topic, a few years ago before I retired I was in a bit of a computer support crisis at work and I popped off a line from the "Airplane" movie that I had picked a bad day to give up amphetamines. Some time later it crossed my mind that maybe there was some potential for a language based on references to movies. I did not pursue it much further than that one example of "I picked a bad day to give up amphetamines" meaning that things are not going well and I am having a bit of a struggle dealing with it.

    The only line of Latin poetry I remember from school is "Quid quid id est timeo Danaos et dona ferente." The rhythm of the syllables is unavoidable in that one. Unfortuately, I rarely heard Latin spoken in that way. It was typically reduced to Received Pronunciation patterns of British English.
    I do like your emphasis on using poetic metaphor and idioms as key components of everyday conversation.

    Luke, I just want to say that even though I’m not learning Latin, I appreciate than in general for languages, you are quite mature and don’t have beliefs of inferiority or superiority. I like how you acknowledge dialects and accents as dialects and accents, not inferior or superior. For example, the language of ecclesiastical Latin according to you, is not better or worse than classical Latin, which is a really healthy mindset! I’m studying Spanish (im also interested in medieval Spanish, but I love the sounds of modern Latin American Spanish!) but have studied 5 languages before (aiming for fluency tho and I’m already intermediate) and every accent has something I like in it :)
    Someone else might prefer Italian, but it’s preference. It’s beautiful that the romance branch spawned so many beautiful ways of speaking, just like the branches of Germanic and Semitic, respectively part of PIE and Afro Asiatic :D

    Just a small nitpick, but the German language DOES have phonemic vowel length! It's not too common, but there is certainly an audible difference between 'Aachen', the city with long 'a', and 'Achen', a made-up word, but with a short 'a'. In German, native speaker would definitely complain the you're pronouncing it wrong if you didn't pronounce the long 'a'.

      Tolkien knew and loved Latin (and Italian, a little), but the real deal among his languages is the Elvish Quenya, that he made to sound like Finnish, a language with a lot of wovels of different length and with words that end in wovels, so maybe that's why it sounds a bit Latin (and Tolkien thought of it like a sort of "Elvish Latin" in its kinship with the other Elvish languages that he also created).

      ​​@@Laurelin70 He made it to sound like Welsh, but to be structured like Finnish.
      Tolkien said that the English word "Cellar Door" sounded rather beautiful, especially if you pronounced it as a single word "Seledor". And that Welsh was filled with such Cellar Doors.
      Quenya keeps far more Finnish phonotactic influence tho', especially when compared to Sindarin, which leans far more Welsh.

    Why using pronuncia restituta?

    • @polyMATHY_Luke
      @polyMATHY_Luke  10 місяців тому +4

      Perché la pronuncia restituta è di fatto la pronuncia di Virgilio. È anche lo standard internazionale. Solo in Italia rimane la pronuncia tradizionale italiana (detta ecclesiastica) nel campo accademico.

    Small side question: where is your American accent from? I noticed that you pronounced 'wh' (e.g. in what, when, etc.) differently than "standard American". Just curious where that is the case. :)

      I’m from Pennsylvania. Because I think about pronunciation in ancient languages, I incorporate a few older sounds in my English. Interestingly, until a few decades ago, pronouncing wh distinctly from w was the only standard American and British way to utter them. So it’s not even that archaic, and I’m bringing it back for my own speech haha.

    Latin spoken by English people is quite unlistenable, a part the accent that is relative for everyone beacause no one know in reality how Latin sound spoken by Omero, Virgilio, Lucrezio, Augusto, ecc. But for me the fun fact is that there are a lot of letters that are speak wrong, for example the C or the couple AE, the consonant are always to soft, they have to be mor sharp and hard! C'mon anglosaxons you can improve, but we can apologize you, you were the outskirt of empire. 😂😂😅 🎉

      What exactly are you critiquing? Final -m in Latin does not behave as in English: it is highly obscured such that it nasalizes the preceding vowel in most environments.

      Ti capisco. Imparare il latino nel modo in cui viene comunemente insegnato può essere inefficiente e noioso. Ecco perché persone come Luke (Lucio) insegnano il latino e il greco antico con metodi naturali.
