Discussion
I want to add you to wss://lang.relays.land/la . I noticed you had marked it as a favorite. If you post a new standalone note in Latin, I can republish it there.
There are not many speakers. I think we can all sharpen our skills, if we'd like, until fluent speakers arrive. (Though, I think most fluent Latin speakers also teach it, haha)
I just woke up and I am too tired to try translating all of that ๐
It took me half an hour to read yout note and an hour to write. My Latin teacherยน used to say that this language demands atention and a kind of slo-mo approach, not hurry at all. ๐ Take your time.
Ok. I'll try out to post something in Latin.๐ค

Whence your interest in Latin, nostr:nprofile1qqsvyv8d6dx2tjp33069j2kq2mx7xage6w2upyzvxl4pcegt3t22wyspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qfqwaehxw309ashqmrpvdjkjmn5dpjhxatw9ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5hszyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekk7mf00fytsp? How long and how have you been studying that language?
I have been studying for about a year, very loosely and informally through audio & written submersion, cross reference, and conversation. I have friends who speak ancient languages, not fluently, but quite well. They made me curious long ago.
When I first decided to learn a new language, I started studying Spanish and quickly realized that the little bits of Latin that I already knew had more utility in my practical life, because of the people I know, the subjects that interest me, etc.
What is your motivation?
Very, very interesting.
My motivation was literary: I wished one day I could read Virgil and Horace and Augustine
Post scriptum II: It seems that the correct conjugation is ยซrespondeยป (jussive or imperative mood of ยซrespondeoยป):
ยซQuaeso qui responde in Latine mihi.ยป ๐ซ
