Vilen Dank! Gratiae!

[nighean-neonach]

What happens here is called synkope - an unstressed vowel is eliminated:
magister - magisteri -> magistri.

[Martine]

I didn't know about that. I missed this lesson. So, thanks for information, nighean-neonach

[nighean-neonach]

Most Latin books don't explain about that, they just leave learners wondering

[Martine]

I have one more question. What's the ablativus and dativus form of sententia in plural form? "Sententis" or "sententiis" with double "i"? I really don't know.

[nighean-neonach]

With double i of course

[lama su]

I have one more question. What's the ablativus and dativus form of sententia in plural form? "Sententis" or "sententiis" with double "i"? I really don't know.

theorically double "i", but it can also be written with only one "i" (in this case, it's a contraction). Both are correct.

[Martine]

I wrote with double. Thanks a lot lama su , nighean-neonach

[nighean-neonach]

In books for learners it is usually with double i because that's more regular. In original texts you will find all sorts of different spellings with various words, but that's not something you should worry about while you are still at the stage of memorising declension tables

[Martine]

I need help again. I really need to know how to say in Latin "all roads lead to Rome" (in Italian "Tutte le strade portano a Roma"). I hope this proverb also existed in Latin.

[Babelfish]

"Omnes viae Romam ducunt" seems to be a common translation, at least in Google I don't know if it's "official" but it means the same.

[KingHarvest]

I don't believe it was a proverb when the Romans actually were around, but I could be wrong.

[Martine]

Thank you very much. Do you know some Latin proverbs connected with education? I know just
Scientia nulla res praestantior - Nothing is more important than wisdom

[KingHarvest]

Disce aut discede - Learn or get out.

[Martine]

Thank you a lot

[Martine]

It's difficult for me to translate one text. I don't understand some words:
Contecta and aere
Gorgones autem monstra erant specie horribili; capita enim earum anguibus omnino contecta erant. Manus etiam ex aere factae erant.

I have also some grammar exercises.... Some of them are very easy, but the other ones...
In......... (mortale corpus)............. (immoralis anima) inesse philosophi Graeci docent.
I've got to write the right form. I think that corpora is correct, but what about mortale?

If you know, please help me

[KingHarvest]

The Gorgons were monsters with a horrible appearance. Their heads were covered (the root verb is tego, tegere, texi, tectus) with snakes. Their hands were made from bronze.

mortali corpore, immortalem animam.

[Martine]

Thanks you a lot!
