Thank you for reading :D

[mario_sunny]

Lol! :)

 

 

 

I didn't know they were speaking latin, thanks for the translations. Haha eat my shorts.

 

 

 

Isn't really a guide though, more like general p2p :-s

[ShadowsSaved]

True, should it be posted there instead?

[pokemama]

:shock: I didn't know they spoke Latin, and I was playing the game when the town was introduced. Have they always? :-k

 

 

 

I think we may have to add a separate category for this type of amusing/interesting thing that doesn't fall into the usual "guide" category - I wouldn't mind indexing these.

 

 

 

Wonder if it would fit in the Gallery, with an Index here?

[LeonardMart]

well the gallery not really as its not actual art, but maybe general p2p... btw, i had never spoken to them long enough to noice they spoke weird stuff!

[knight10071]

Nice "guide", but one mistake, errare (17) means: to be mistaken, be in error :wink:

[ShadowsSaved]

Thanks! :D

[wizarthas460]

Nice "guide", but one mistake, errare (17) means: to be mistaken, be in error :wink:

 

 

 

hmmmm....did you have latin?

 

 

 

according to my knowledge and according to my book it is wander,

 

 

 

errare means: to wander

 

error means: a wandering

 

 

 

it could also mean to make a mistake, but to wander is the main translation

 

 

 

checked my teachure:

 

 

 

it actually means, to wander on the way to doing the right thing.....

 

so if you loook it on that way it is correct, but i would use an other translation

 

 

 

error facere = to make a mistake

 

 

 

4 years of latin.....then you will know this

[LeonardMart]

4 years of latin.....then you will know this

 

15 years of spanish native language, which is a lot like latin. error(latin)=error(spanish)=and error(english) mehehe, then you will know this

[tomato72]

Very good :D - I noticed a while ago, but never bothered to find out all the phrases.

 

Can't find it anywhere :?

 

Bonus! Optime!

 

 

 

...Vale

errare is an "invinitivus" (dunno the English term for that, latin ftw?) verb

 

 

 

Of the 2 meanings to wander off may be the main translation, but in this case it's a saying. In Dutch the translation would be (of the whole piece): Vergissen is menselijk.

 

Which means: To be mistaken is human, not: To wander is human.

 

About the error facere, it's about being mistaken, so about not doing/saying the right thing, not about making a mistake.

 

 

 

And to answer your question, yes I have. 2 years, and I actually translated this saying the other day :XD:

[pokemama]

Sorry, I said Gallery and I meant the Library forum (where people's writings ... stuffs ... are). My bad.

[Captainkidd]

Vacca foeda :D

[Owned_Nex]

L0l! I never noticed. I dont think this is a guide really, jsut something to know :P

[Lighs]

I don't know any Latin, but I believe that the more common rendering of the phrase in English is "To err is human."

[Elessar3019]

Did you use a translation website for this or did you translate it on your own? It's really cool!

[Dalcyte]

lol funny...

 

but honestly a lot of the grammer does not make sense at all.

 

 

 

number 1, [bleep]...it's actually not used in that sentence..[bleep] means when, with, although (with tandem) etc...and there is no [bleep] in there.

 

 

 

number 10, lest you (auderis is messed up, it should be in the subjunctive..but it its not..) "dare" to delete my (i'm assuming) hard disk!

 

 

 

lol, just some points. :-X

[HellsBells]

Wow...very interesting. :shock:

[dude_of_war4]

never saw em speak it :?

[Moonlapsed]

19. corripe cervisisiam. - to seize (cervisisiam?)(unknown)

 

I think it means "To seize the moment" but I'm not sure.

[Pandaman115]

I like finding the connections to English, such as "Vivas" in the phrase "Get A Life", which probably is used for Life.

[sparticus348]

How about the all famous...

 

 

 

veni vidi vici

[unknowable]

number 22:

 

 

 

You forgot the first part...

 

 

 

22. Te audire no possum. Musa sapientum fixa est in aure? - How do you get your hair to do that?

 

I can't hear you.

 

 

 

I'll look up on my latin translation book :-w

 

 

 

That cerv thingey, it's beer, I think :)

 

 

 

11. Da mihi sis bubulae frustrum assae, solana tuberosa in modo Gallico fricta,ac quassum lactatum coaglatum crassum.

 

 

 

Translated the part before the comma:

 

Give to me, if you want, a piece of roasted meat.

Whoa, based on your post I bet I've got it! Please understand this is a Wild Guess, I don't know squat about Latin as I've only studied Spanish:

 

 

 

Please give me a burger, french fries, and a milkshake.

 

 

 

Lol! Tell me I'm wrong - that's gotta be it!

 

 

 

 

 

Also, Lighs is right about number 17 (errare humanum est - to be mistaken is human)

I don't know any Latin, but I believe that the more common rendering of the phrase in English is "To err is human."

 

The literal (word by word) translation may be as everyone stated, but we all know that teachers won't accept anything but the *equivalent* phrase, lol. (And kudos to those who are translating from Latin into their native language and then into English.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Again, I don't know any Latin, so I just bounced around the net a while and tried variants that may or may not be any good.

 

(cerveza is beer in spanish ... for whatever that's worth.)

 

One website (university of notre dame?) said this for cervus -isiam:

 

cervus -i m. [stag , deer]; pl., milit., [stakes stuck in the ground as a palisade].

 

 

 

 

 

Finally, you have 15. Furnulum pani nolo. - I don't want a toaster.

 

I am wondering if there is any way this translation can be stretched to "I don't want any toast." The toaster kind of leaves you wondering why - my suggested translation is a line from Red Dwarf, a British TV comedy. Hmm. Well. Actually the whole RD sketch is about a talking toaster that keeps offering people food when they don't want any, and it won't shut up. So maybe yours works as well. Heh.
