Yes, Latin is indeed an inflective language. This means that words change their form to indicate grammatical relationships, such as tense, case, gender, and number. This feature is common in many classical languages, including Latin. 👍✅ 🙏 proffesor Dave
@@theangrysuchomimus5163 I don't want to be the arbiter of technically correct, but wouldn't that make you the vocabulary police, not the grammar police?
I absolutely _love_ this series! It's been the longest time since I went back Latin, and your series has really given me the crash course I needed. It's really amazing how Latin being the root of so many romance languages means that learning ones makes it easy to learn Latin. On the other hand, starting with Latin acts like a Rosetta stone that helps you unlock other languages faster. Really glad I put in some effort to learn my Spanish verb conjugations! Thanks for your good work!
I studied Latin at High Scholl for 5 years. I was no good at it but the teacher always gave me 51% because he liked me. I recall the first thing we learnt -- mensa mensas mensat etc.🙂
I was amazed at the complexity… but then as a native French speaker I realized… yep, the normal stuff. Nice to know you are into many different things.
Latin remains the grandest, most elegant tongue in which to engage the European literature of Antiquity and the Medieval, Renaissance or Enlightenment centuries, or pursue eloquence in rhetoric, law, medicine, philosophy or biology.
Hey man. I'm losing it. My sanity is all gone. I have to ask you, are you by chance the Dave Grohl, legendary drummer of Nirvana and frontman of the Foo Fighters? Your name is dave, and you look a lot like him. I'm not crazy I swear.

I don't want to be the grammar police but I think it's "professor", not "proffesor"

I just found your channel and I'm pleasantly surprised that you're a latinist. Latin is an absolutely fascinating language.

Hibernia here! ☘️🇮🇪. My school books were Longman's . Amazingly, I still have the three books, plus sundry Latin books and dictionaries.

What about the supine? I don’t know what that is but it’s in all the dictionaries
Getting flashbacks to high school Latin classes. Torturing myself for no good reason going through this series. Thanks, Dave.
Might have asked this before, but are thinking about a linguistics tutorial in the future?
