And using s zombie language. Even The Church Latin is often wrong or mis pronounced. For example, “c” is always pronounced like a “k” sound and the “v” like a “w” sound.
Veni, vidi, vici, should sound like wennie, wedee, wiki.
The Latin pronunciation used in the Catholic Church is ecclesiastical. So, it's not "wrong." It's just a different pronunciation. Your Classical pronunciation is correct, though!
I only know what my Latin 1 professor told us, but, yeah, that makes sense. We studied out of the Wheelock text. So what schools still have Classics departments in the age of “usable skills” having the highest priority? I think basic classics should be required for graduation.
Ah, good ol' Wheelock. That's still the standard college Latin text, even today. Glad you got a chance to take Latin!
Most large, R1 schools still have something of a Classics program (Berkeley's has traditionally been #1), and many small, liberal arts schools do as well. But, many state schools such as the majority of CSUs do not. Instead, Classics often gets lumped together nowadays with modern foreign languages or religion and philosophy due to budget cuts.
I completely agree that basic Classics should be required for graduation. It's an original cornerstone of Western education! Luckily, there is still a major undergrad interest in Classical Myth/Western Civ. courses (at least in the places I've taught).
Oh, wow, they were talking about eliminating the Classics Department when I was at Cal in the late '70s. I am surprised it's still there. But I doubt Latin is still offered. I only took one quarter, but am glad I did.
I don’t know the Latin but I get the sentiment. This was one of those games where you’re grateful to be a Bears fan.
I love your analysis. Unfortunately it reinforces Cal’s need to figure out how to get its run-game untracked. Maybe they’ll crack the code this week and they can deliver an upset win in Texas.
When people say “Go Bears,” I always felt I should say something like “And also with you”, as we do in the Episcopal Church.
So, since Cal is, one may say, my secular religion, I propose the following response to the usual “Go Bears” interjection:
The new Cal “passing of the peace”
Worshipper 1: “Go Bears”
Worshipper 2: “Forever”
In the name of Oski.
Amen
Also acceptable:
1. "98 yards with my boys!"
2. Throwing gang signs for 33-7, final score of the final Pac-12 game for the Bears against UCLA.
This title makes absolutely no sense in Latin...
It looks like you are trying to say:
**Mendoza et Puerī Vicerunt
That's what I get for relying on Google Translate haha
I understand. I'm a Classics professor, so forgive me when I say that these things bother me greatly!

It says, "Fernando and the Boys conquered."
Centurion: "No it doesn't."

Mendoza is going to be CALs first million dollar college QB. Good for him! Then I hope we pay for more linemen, especially a center.

No code. Dedicated O line coach.
Grateful for this.
Biggest improvement is between game(s) 1(1) and (1)2.
