今天有多少人懂拉丁文?放在西方世界都是少之又少。大家試試跟一般洋人說 Alma Mater, 對方肯定一頭霧水,還以為你的英文程度只得「半桶水」,把法文或甚麼語言混淆了。看來,大家不好亂拋書包,還是用 old school 算了。 補充一下,如果對方是接受過高等教育的人,不妨用上 Alma Mater 這詞語。舉例說,Peking University is my Alma Mater.

I did not understand, so his hand holding pennies & I realized " bus did not accept pennies... so I gave him a dime & refused his pennies....
