    I have a written a new short story in Latin! with drammatically acted audiobook. Check it out: luke-ranieri.myshopify.com/collections/frontpage/products/fabula-anatina-a-duckish-tale-in-latin 🦆
    It's a children's book about the odyssey of a duckling who wants to learn how to fly.

      Est Latine mater lingua? Sed Gallice et Graeca sunt linguae soror. Sorry that was probably abysmal, as I've never taken any Latin classes, so I have little knowledge of declension, which may possibly always elude me. It is always easiest first to read a language (except Mandarin, Haha!, which is actually easier to learn than you might think), then harder still to hear it and understand it, even more difficult to correctly speak, and finally hardest of all is to write well in a language using local idioms, et cetera in a flowing manner. I believe Spanish to be purer in form to Latin than French and sometimes even Italian, although I think the Italian accent is probably the closest to the way the Romans spoke

      @@kevinstachovak8842 , Agreed 100% on your last sentence. Spanish can be argued is the closest to Latin in grammar, verb conjugation, sibliant s, ossified words, and pronunciation. But yeah, the ancient Romans likely had an intonation like that of Italians. Dare I say like an Argentinean as well?

    All of those words also exist in Portuguese, some in very formal/academic contexts, others in colloquial use. For the colour black specifically, the choice of vocabulary can imply different degrees of politeness and gravity, depending on which word you use and whether you refer to a person or an object.

      In Mexican Spanish we have negro, prieto, and moreno. Although the word negro is used more than the others. Prieto is used to say somebody is darker and moreno is also used in this way. Negro can be used too. It's up to the person's choice.

      Well, it’s difficult to make really precise definitions since Latin vocabulary has been used with great changes over two thousand years. The video way we interact with color just isn’t that same as in ancient times. So either interpretation has a degree of validity depending on CJ text.
