489 Out of curiosity, do any of you (Dedonus, Paladin, and Pie) speak Latin?

I can read and pronounce Latin. There is really no practical reason to be able to speak Latin like a live language.

489. Right that's what I meant. I do enjoy baffling my classmates by shouting at them in high-speed latin though.

cool! I'm working on a Latin translation right now... Daphne and Apollo from Ovid's Metamorphoses.
I know both Latin and Greek. ;)
I've always wanted to learn Greek but unfortunately my school (online) doesn't have a text processor that supports it so they actually can't offer Greek as a class. 490 LOL at the edit Double post, Dedonus.

491 (Silver Paladin ninja'd me there, so that's why I was low...I edited it prior to your post). Knowing Latin will make learning Greek way easier than not knowing a language like Latin. It uses the same types of endings for verbs, adjectives, and nouns (I mean, there are nominatives, datives, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person verbs, etc.). I should be reading Tibullus' Elegies right now.... Edit: Re: Double post. I was making an edit on my last post and when I pressed save, there were two posts. >.<

490 The hardest part of Latin for me to grasp was that every declension has different endings. I still don't entirely get why it was set up that way, but I've learned to just roll with it. Also that verbs have their subject included in them. Edit: Re: Re: Double post. Report it to Mahz.

491 When word order almost always (key word almost) does not give any no grammatical functions to the words in the sentence, you need some other system. If it makes you feel any better, there is no Ablative case in Greek...

490 Right but my Latin teacher says that just about every noun is declined irregularly in Greek.

Not EVERY noun is declined irregularly. Plus there are only 3 declensions (and no conjugations) in Greek.

Only bad thing is that you do not have the regularity of the conjugations (especially like the 1st, where literally all you need to do is remember that its a 1st and you can write out the Principal Parts without a problem. Edit: Also, there are six principal parts and three different voices (active, middle, and passive).

492. I'm afraid I hardly speak english. But in all seriousness I'm afraid I do not, I do however speak French and some Italian as well as spatterings of other things. I've never had the opportunity to learn Latin at all.

491. Oh, my gods. I have a hard enough time remembering the four in Latin. And how the heck do you have three voices?!?! Edit: Ninja'd by Pie. Pie, if you know Italian you practically know Latin. But I've also always wanted to learn French. I was in French club in elementary school but nothing ever really came of that.

492 Middle shows an active actions that is done usually for ones own benefit. It is weird because English does not have the middle voice. Some words have different meanings in the middle. For instance, the infinitive "luein" normally means to release or free. However, in the middle it means to "ransom".
