    The gum chewing is a thoughtful addition to the lesson. I believe she has added this to prevent the viewers with little determination to learn this important language from attaining full absorption of the material. You have not just want to learn it but need to learn it if you want to persevere against the subtle sounds of wet flesh in motion.
    Takes dedication to get through these lessons. Latin requires a powerful tongue. This leads to wet microphones, viewers tensing of muscles, and curling of toes.
    I'm not sober enough to stop this meaningless comment. Lol
    Thank you for your well constructed lesson and the time you gave to us by creating it. I am grateful. Even with the gum(juicy fruit, winter fresh, orbits?) In the back ground.

    I was baffled when I realized how many of these Latin ''catchphrases'' we kept in French (my mothertongue) such as Ad infinitum , Quid Pro Quo, In Vitro... I even had a teacher who kept saying ''Ad vitam Aeternam''. You are providing great courses! Keep up the great work!

      Myself, I’m curious to understand why there are gender exceptions. I mean, I get it. If the activity can be used to earn MONEY, the word was considered masculine. In the same way that many lower class men claim cooking is women’s work, but assume Gordon Ramsey is a superior chef because he’s NOT a woman, clearly that double standard is nothing new.
      But why F gender these nouns to begin with? Or why not come up with a new word that can differentiate between domestic partner and professional, at the very least?

    The more I look at Latin, the more similarity that I find with Sanskrit. If you guys think Latin is complicated, then Sanskrit has 7 instead of 6 declensions, which are called as Vibhaktis. Also instead of just singular and plural, it has a dual form of the noun too, which makes a 7x3 table for each noun form. I would say both Sanskrit and Latin have much more common with each other in terms of grammar than with the languages they gave birth to

      Exactly, I see Sanskrit and Latin very similar in grammatical structure.
      P.S. : It is a matter of shame that I m finding much easier to learn Latin than Sanskrit (Reason being English not being my mother tongue) however I shall use this technique to learn Sanskrit.

    • @ashuanjay882
      @ashuanjay882 11 месяцев назад

      I don't know Sanskrit but my language is Sinhala and declensions don't mean Vibhakti. Vibhakti means noun cases. A declension of a noun is the set of noun cases it could have. When one says poeta and nauta are of the same declension, it doesn't mean they're in the same noun case it means *if* they were in the same noun case they would have similar inflections at the ends

    Took French in high school about 35 years ago. Made excellent grades too. This made a lot of sense to me. Luckily, I can still speak some.
    A few years ago took some Spanish, that helped taking French previously. I can rock the Latin based languages. Now I would like to learn Latin.

    One thing that I haven't seen mentioned is that the declension tables are often listed in a different order: Nominative, Vocative, Accusative, Genitive, Dative, Ablative, (and Locative is sometimes included, but it's just the same endings as Genitive.)

    • @yenthegoegebeur7820

    • @UserOfTheZune
      @UserOfTheZune 5 лет назад +1

      I'm only studying independantly, but the US case order I've come across most often is Nominative, Genetive, Dative, Accusative, and Ablative, with the Vocative at the end if it's even included. The way to remember is to take alphabetical order, but backwards, excepting the Vocative, which again isn't mentioned too often unless necessary or into the more advanced stuff.

    • @Mishelle9481
      @Mishelle9481 5 лет назад +1

      locative the same ending as genitive or did you mean ablative? Locative is not a “case” in Latin, but it was in proto indoeuropean. 3 cases (separative, instrumental and locative) were, in Latin, included in the ablative case.

    • @nataliejones8951
      @nataliejones8951 4 года назад +1

    Your tutorial is good and very inspiring.
    I have an observation leading to a suggestion. You may consider it as a feedback. The sequence in whcih you introduce a 'concept, should be maintained ideally. For example, from 4:08~4:52 you introduced Cases wherein you used the sequence- Normative, Genitive, Accusative, sative, Ablative, Vocative. however, when you went to 1st Declension:Endings, the sequence you used was marginally different, i.e. Normative, Genitive, Dative, Accusative,Ablative, Vocative. This created a confusion in my mind while I memorized the previous slide moving on. So I had to go back and forth a couple of times to observe this positioning error and reformat it in my mind.
    Please keep publishing more tutorials and videos and keepup the good work.

    Wow, I study law and I always wondered why The Crown in criminal cases would always be represented by capital R. We were taught R would mean Regina if we had a Queen, and R would be Rex, when we had a King. As the Queen of England is the Crown in the Australian Commonwealth, all criminal cases were R v (defendant’s last name). We had so much Latin erased from our Law courses itv used to be mandatory. I called out my Lecturer for lying to the class saying that there were no legal defences to the tort of Negligence when there was “Volenti non fit injuria” (to the volunteer, injury will not come) I.e. if you’re a boxing/UFC professional suing for negligence you’d get that defence as a boxer is going in to the situation knowing there is possible danger - but I said that in the middle of the class and he pretended that Latin didn’t even exist as part of the subject when everything in law is Latin, but we never get to learn it. Edjustem Generis = of like kind, Actus Rea & Means Reus = Guilty act, guilty mind = the judge has to explain the ‘guilty act’ the crime I.e. murder in 1st degree, and the means reus/guilty mind explains the intention of the criminal - could lessen the charge to manslaughter. Orbiter dictum = other comments the judge leaves in the case. Ratio Decedndi = reason for the decision (ratio/rationale, decedendi = decision), there was so much we were just made to memorise when it’s actually so simple and easy to learn. If you learn to speak language, and read music = you have the key to the universe. Writing Arabic is like writing music, as the symbols change the sound of the letter “zuud/zuu” and if you speak Latin, you speak every other language in Europe. You break spells.

    Thankyou for the lessons, but may I point out a couple of things that others haven't mentioned in their feedback?
    - although I'm a Latin novice , I can tell the pronounciations, at times, are not accurate: for example , "ager" , the "r" should be pronounced similar to spanish - more strongly, where as in these lessons they are pronounced with British accent which is wrong. It's like how some Asian, who can't pronounce the sound of "r" and says "L" instead, teaches English.
    - I think the teaching skills really need to be improved. There's no flow or rythm (it's like suddenly things jump from one slide to the next) and everything is just quickly brushed over. Also I don't feel any passion....
    candy eating sound, etc is already mentioned.
    sorry for being straight forward.

    I recently saw an English video saying latin "v" should be pronounced as "w" and C or G should be pronounced "strongly", and now you too, you pronounce them in that way. I am Italian and here in Italy in many high schools latin is studied for 2, up to 5 years. I never listened to anyone pronounce Latin letters as you, or dealing with the problem... Are we going wrong? Your pronunciation seemed so weird to me! *thinking about* :D

      Livia Carrarini In Itāliā prōnuntiātiō Italica vel Ecclesiastica docētur, dum in aliīs partibus mundī prōnuntiātiō Restituta aut Classica docētur, quā "v" sīcut "w" prōnuntiātur. Neutra prāva est, modo dīversae. Utramque discere dēbēs, ut opīnor. In Italy the Italian or Ecclesiastical pronunciation is taught, while in other parts of the world the Restored or Classical pronunciation is taught, in which the "v" sounds like a "w" (among many other differences). Neither is wrong, just different. You should learn both, in my opinion.

      @@moen4665 I was looking through some saxon coins I have in my collection , one was issued by the arch bishop of Canterbury in the 800s ad.
      His name was WULFRED
      on the coin its spelled

      The V acts as the W & the U

      Latin did not have J and V. J is a prolonged version of I and V is a modified version of U.

    poe'ta' poet'ae' is male?!

    • @learninglanguages3996
      @learninglanguages3996  7 лет назад +5

      Thanks for your question. Yes, both poeta and nauta, despite ending in -a, are masculine nouns. This is because both words have been borrowed from Ancient Greek (poiētḗs and naútēs respectively). The ancient Ancient Greek words from which they are derived are masculine, which explains why poeta and nauta are also masculine in Latin.

    • @jeanger8
      @jeanger8 7 лет назад +1

      All first declension nouns are feminines. EXCEPTION: poeta, -ae, nauta, -ae, argicola, -ae and many others that show a male occupation are masculines.

      When I studied Russian years ago, I found it a nightmare because of the declensions. I had studied Spanish earlier, which doesn't have them. Spanish was easy for me, so I made the mistake of thinking Russian was going to be the same. What a mistake!
