>Ford mustang is the hottest car in the industry and its performance on the street abd in the showrooms is beating everyones expectations. I hate the hand that comes out of a car and just drops litter in the street.

>Ford Mustang ubi fortissimum est, industriam, et currus ejus, in perficientur in via, et ad showrooms pulsat omnium expectationem. Est quia odio me manum tuam super aquas e car et justum lectica in via.

[Anonymous No.16178715]

>>16177825
seriously how can you not translate this do you plebs not read latin? pretty sure the correct translation is with a weapon and dinner [something] to the man although it's missing the verb OP post the full sentence at the very least if you're going to make a thread please

[Anonymous No.16178745]

>>16178715

Sorry, lit is a practical board. We do not waste our time here learning superfluous foreign or long-dead languages unless it furthers our employment options and helps us acquire more bread. We'll see who's happier when I leave you in the dust with my new BMW rental while you spout some nonsense in Italian, punk

or history. great if your are in history and deal with primary sources. seeing how it was a major high language for a good 1800-is years. from the rise of rome (admittedly a lot was greek then, but more and more became latin by at least 0 AD) to about 1700. Newton and stuff even wrote in latin.

If I were a hiring manager and I saw that you're fluent in Latin on your resume, I'd probably call you in for an interview since that takes a lot of discipline

Talia iactanti stridens Aquilone procella
velum adversa ferit, fluctusque ad sidera tollit.
Franguntur remi; tum prora avertit, et undis
dat latus; insequitur cumulo praeruptus aquae mons. 105
Hi summo in fluctu pendent; his unda dehiscens
terram inter fluctus aperit; furit aestus harenis.
Tris Notus abreptas in saxa latentia torquet—
saxa vocant Itali mediis quae in fluctibus aras—
dorsum immane mari summo; tris Eurus ab alto 110
in brevia et Syrtis urget, miserabile visu,
inliditque vadis atque aggere cingit harenae.
Unam, quae Lycios fidumque vehebat Oronten,
ipsius ante oculos ingens a vertice pontus
in puppim ferit: excutitur pronusque magister 115
volvitur in caput; ast illam ter fluctus ibidem
torquet agens circum, et rapidus vorat aequore vortex.
