วีดีโอ

No meu site eu publiquei até o Salmo 75: www.lectionesantiquae.com/vulgata-clementina. Mas ainda não retomei essa série de vídeos, a qual pretendo levar até o último (150).

@@rantzntirades1104 In many of my recent videos, I use classical pronunciation. Use them to practice!

@lectionesantiquae3090 I've been sticking to classical Latin. I can't roll my tongue, so I would struggle a bit with ecclesiastical Latin but it's something I can manage. As far as understanding, it's meh. I'm picking up on words and sentence structure but the nuances still confuse me. When to use ae, us, a, etc is sticking me. I barely understand the stress rule but I'm improving there. De Bello Gallico is actually the first Latin book I am exposed to due to ordering a copy. If I can't speak to anyone in Latin, at least there's a treasure trove of literature to get my grubby little mits on 😅

@@rantzntirades1104 I'm a tutor and I don't charge for the trial lesson. If you want, you can book one on my website and I will explain the stress rule in detail and also give you a comprehensive explanation of how declensions (the 'a', 'ae', 'us' that you mentioned) work . Whether you would continue or not afterwards, it is up to you. Think about that! Also, there are easier books to use to learn and improve your Latin too. I'm not saying that you should stop reading De Bello Gallico, but using others would definetely help.

@lectionesantiquae3090 I'm interested in taking up your offer. Please link to your website. Also my choice in De Bello Gallico is due to me tying my learning of Latin to Roman history and culture. It's one thing to learn about the Punic wars in a textbook. It's another to read first hand accounts in the original language. I just saw your link and am writing in retrospect

I hope you're not Sabidius 😂It is always a pleasure to read Martial

@ haha nope, my gens is Martialis!

@@petemcc152 this word has three variations: praesepe, is (3rd delension), praesepium, ii (2nd declension) and praesepia, ae (1st declension). They were all used indifferently (although the last one is rarer).

@@lectionesantiquae3090 Thank you for that explanation

Tibi quoque (moram ignoscas!)

The S should be retracted. There are videos describing it on youtube, but I learned that a little late, so I haven't practiced it yet

@@lectionesantiquae3090 personally the S you use is more pleasant but the whistle could be more accurate, either way there is an advantage. I think it’s pronounced with the tongue more toward the lower row of teeth. It’s common in modern Greek and castellano but again I could be wrong about Greek because I’ve never studied it well

Merry Christmas Ken, thank you for supporting the channel since its beginnings!

@@junonismusica8670 I was not aware of the translation you mentioned. I'll take a look at it, thank you for letting me know about it. Now the reason I chose this one, is because it is the closest one to spoken Greek - 'real' Modern Greek if I can put it in this way - that I've ever found. So I thought that the contrast would be more interesting this way. But I had a personal reason too: this is the translation I used to learn Modern Greek - and still use for practice -, so I have some affection towards it.

@@lectionesantiquae3090 Yeah the one you used is more colloquial but still if someone is a pious orthodox they will read the Koine which in traditional orthodox churches will be used liturgically as well, i.e. not everyone prefers the colloquial version just as many in english prefer the KJV or ESV instead of a more colloquial NIV or the like.

Gaudeo tibi hanc lectionem placuisse, Iberi mi. Vale athletice!

Oh you really enjoyed that one didn't you? haha I'm very happy. Edit: I've just added it to my website, you can download from there for free if you want: www.lectionesantiquae.com/audiobooks.

@ thanks! And yes, I did. I have respect for ecclesiastical pronunciation, but I truly believe, and am working towards in my own community, the use of classical Latin pronunciation when reading scripture. It encourages me to see your work, always. God Bless.

I appreciate your words, man. I'm willing to vary the pronunciations from now on (until now, I have reserved classical pronunciation to classical authors only) so that both types of Latin speakers can be happy haha. Just please be aware that this passage was not taken from the Vulgate. I invite you to read the description! God bless you.

Highly doubtful Jesus would've heard much Classical Latin, but would definitely have known Greek. Anyhow, Jerome's "vulgar" Latin differs in pronunciation from Classical Latin and actually sounds like a Proto-Italian when reconstructed!

@@iberius9937 Yes, I don't think that Latin ever reached those regions, maybe some words only, such as 'quadrans' which we find the the Greek NT. Besides, there was no reason why, sinc Greek was indeed an official language of the Empire. But regarding pronunciation, Jerome and Augustin didn't pronounce the way the Church does today, and that's sure. Augustin testifies in his Confessions that he struggled learning Greek, and that 'lege' and 'λέγε' were pronounced in the same way even though they meant different things in each language. He would never write this if he used "ecclesiastical pronunciation". So even at that time, the Vulgate was not read as today.

It is not taken from the Vulgate though. When reading the Vulgate, I only use the ecclesiastical pronunciation hehe. But I'll publish the same passage taken from the Vulgate this week (also Luke).

@ which Bible is this? As I didn’t think we had manuscripts much older than the vulgate ones

@@Vinsanity997 Oh, see, it is not an old translation. None among the old translations were written in classical Latin, even those which attempted to be more sofisticate. This one, which I would say that is the only one to be classical, is much more recent, made by Sebastian Castellio. I gave some info about him in the description

Thank you, my friend. I'll add it to the video's description!

I appreciate that man, thank you 🙏

I'm putting all these short poems in the format for youtube shorts, but I'm gathering some of them first hehe

Salva sis, Irene. Ob benigna sedulae eruditissimaeque magistrae verba et gaudeo et gratias ago! Est quidem mihi discipulus qui assidue pelliculis tuis incumbit, unde ingens sibi auxilium doctrinamque comparat. Omnia tibi bene vertant!

Pro iucundis tuis verbis gratias ago, carissime!

It must be so, although I'm hesitant to interpret like this since he said 'marble'. Maybe he beautified the wood (poetical license) because of the verse coming after it, where his glory is depicted.

@ yeah, he may have wanted to express the beauty by equating it to an ornate material such as marble. I just thought it would throw it out there after reading your description

I have two already recorded: Life of Julius Caesar, by Suetonius and the First book of the Eneid by Virgil. I'm currently removing noises from the audios, they'll soon be available. After that, I would like to record some of the Prophets before recording this one

Thanks. I will wait for Virgil. I am very interested in Eneid.
