Sicut exspectatum, /his/ est plenum stultorum, ita hunc nuntium huc affero.

O.P. Catamitus omnibus plurimam salutem dicit.

Non sum certus hanc rem hic oportere, filum Latinum verum volo. Certe lingua Latina multa per saecula erat modus totius eruditionis, ac abavi nostri erant rectissimi in existimando linguam Latinam esse fundamentum sententiae rectae sensibilitatis veraeque, nam ea lingua non solum dialecticam magnufice docet, sed etiam ipsa sono dulci est poesis profundissima. Itaque hoc filum omnium Latinitatis amantium vel cupientium causa facio. Si ego ipse ubique in Latinitate erro, certe me corrigite, vos amabo.

Ecce nostra Venus Callipyge, maximum Romanitatis opus.

As expected, /his/ is full of idiots, so I'm crossposting this here.

Salvete c/lit/s,

I'm not sure if this belongs here, but I'd like a Latin thread. Of course, Latin was for many ages the platform for all learning, and our ancestors were most right in thinking that Latin was the foundation for right thinking and true appreciation, for that language possesses not only teaches logic excellently, but also is itself the most profound poetry by virtue of its sweet sound. So I'm making this thread for everybody who loves or wants to learn Latin. If I myself have made a mistake in my Latin anywhere, please correct me of course.

Here is our Venus Callipyge, a very great product of the Roman spirit.

The Classics department is infested by SJWs who like Harry Potter and only want to talk about Penises.

Last thing I read in Latin was Pliny's letter about the volcano, pretty enjoyable ngl

comp's hard man, and it's harder when you're writing 4chanism in Latin. I'll have a look over later if anything obvious pops out, but have a bump you cute motherfucker.

honestly the only way to save /lit/ is for the patricians to only speak in latin and the whole board to ban anyone who tries to bring any other language beside french onto this board.

God, can you not shut the fuck up about meaningless contemporary politics for one second? Not everything needs to be about your politicized mommy issues. If you haven't already, you must realize you are at least as bad as your so-called SJWs. De stultitias tace, puer amare!

De eas litteras audivi. Quis est titulus iis? Suntne satis faciles?

>>9120175

Ego ipse sum Latinitati tiro, ita non est difficultas nec te culpa. Quare autem me dulcis vel lepidus ("dulcis" et "lepidus" esse aequivalentes "cute"o conicio) esse dicis? Romanus virilis id iniuriosum putet.

>>9120544

Salvete* And that is correct only when speaking to a crowd of women. Otherwise it'd be Salvete, amici.

I like the idea of restricting this board to classical languages only, though surely discussion in Greek, Sanskrit, even classical Chinese should be allowed and encouraged. I would add that other languages may be /quoted/ for the sake of discussion, but the discussion itself must take place in one of those venerable tongues. I think we should start our own PatricianChan, as obviously the idea is too haughty for this administration (though you never know, with the creation of /vip/). It'd have a userbase of perhaps some five people.

Fuck you. I wanted to go into Classics and it was the most politicized environment I've ever seen. Identity Politics were brought up ever single day. Mention Caesar compare him to Hitler and him to Trump. Bring up Catullus, Bitch about Rape Culture for 20 min. Citations of Buzzfeed articles. Idolization of J.K. Rowling. The same bullshit everyday Ad infinitum. I'm a fucking Communist and I found your lot of spoiled rotten little white bitches insufferable.
