The way you explain things makes me want you to teach me the secrets of the universe.

[@Gustavo6046]

But...they're secrets...

[@slappy8941]

You want to know the secrets of the universe? Okey dokey then. Nothing is real. Everything that exists is just a bunch of mathematical expressions created by sets of potentials, which overlap to make energy and matter. This is no different than the way a computer uses ones and zeroes in binary code. All of reality is indistinguishable from a computer simulation.

[@giovannipincoletti7798]

I homeschooled my four children. Luckily, I knew Latin and taught it to them. My reason for choosing Latin was for the many reasons detailed in this video. As it was also the language of a classic education which is geared not to rote learning, but to thinking, was important to me. I now know that learning the very structured Latin, helped my boys in all of their other subjects. All four boys went on to college, and all four boys made honors every single year. I'm not saying all of their good grades are attributed to learning Latin, but I believe it contributed to their proficiency in English and writing. Homeschooling, without the pressures of public schools and its social pressures, created a much better learning atmosphere.

Found this video so persuasive that I started studying Latin myself. I'm an adult who hasn't been to school for years. Latin was not offered in my high school even though I lived in a middle class suburban community. I always wanted to learn it though. Also noticed long ago that people who studied Latin have a superior command of English. It makes you seem more educated because you ARE more educated if you study it (I have graduate degrees in more than one field, and I still think it can be helpful). Keep up the good work in encouraging classical education. You're performing a valuable service.

[@allanrichardson1468]

Free Man It’s in a textbook titled “Latina Prō Pōpulō,” of which I don’t have a copy right now. The English translation goes something like this: A bear walks into a bar and orders a beer. The bartender serves him the beer, saying “75 sestertii, please.” The bear pays without comment, and the bartender, trying to be friendly, comments “We don’t get many bears in this bar.” The bear replies “At these prices, I’m not surprised!” But the only part of the Latin text I remember accurately is the opening.

What a good quality. When I finished watching it I thought there's a million or more views, but sadly extremely less. The way you explain and express is really easy and understandable

[@carlosmarte3154]

Very true. I’ve been learning German and the language itself explains why they are the way that they are (organized, direct, and precise).

[@TheSandkastenverbot]

Nice to hear but totally not true ;-) Maybe you meant that it's rather easy to learn how written words are pronounced. That is true. Also orthography is at least more regular than French and English, which isn't much of a praise :-)). But our grammer is arguably a mess: 200 of the most basic verbs are "strong verbs" and probably many more nouns (haven't found the numbers here) are "strong nouns" meaning they are conjugated or declinated very irregularly. They have been in the language for a long time and have evolved from a more regular form many centuries ago to what they are now. E.g.: Ich laufe, er läuft, wir liefen; ich habe, ich hatte; ich sende, du sandtest; du rufst, du riefst. Vater, Väter. Frau, Frauen. Vogel, Vögel. Haus, Häuser.

Even though I'm not english in any sort of way ( native tongue, blood etc. ) Learning latin for one year in high school and then half a year after that as an etymology nut ( basically I like to know what each part of the word means and its origins ) has drastically improved my knowledge of English and my pronunciation "instincts" when encountering a new word or a new form of a word.

[@fortheloveofteaching9514]

Thank you for this! We are beginning Classical Conversations this coming year. I always used an eclectic approach for the past 9 years but we are really excited for our new venture! I had not known of all of the benefits of Latin or how strong it was in terms of mental discipline.

My aunt studied Latin in 7th and 8th grade, and then continued with the language through four years of high school. My grandparents were proud of her accomplishments, and she won the Latin prize for six years----no mean feat at that time. She was still reading Roman authors until about six months before she died last year (she was 91). My regret: Latin was not considered "relevant" when I was in high school, and only French and Spanish were offered. I'm glad that some discerning people see that Latin is indeed useful and are looking for ways to increase their knowledge of the language.
