Is that Lingva Latina?

[@jimmerd]

Interesting, I never knew about the nasalisation of vowels followed by nasals, how well is this attested? And do we know why Spanish, Italian and Romanian seem to have lost it?

[@ABAlphaBeta]

Yeah, the have it. Spanish -ón is realised as [õn] or even [õ:]

[@randomserb761]

@MC King It's just Latin!

[@randomserb761]

@MC King Orthographic choice substituting every v with u as there was no difference in antiquity, some people go the other way and write every non-syllabic i as j to fully distinguish the semivowels from their syllabic counterparts.

[@randomserb761]

@MC King Then you would need to write every u as v, e.g. *vt* for ut. But usually people that choose to write in this way write everything as u. It's just a convention, one of many to choose from. Nobody has a monopoly on Latin orthography so there certainly are a few in-betweens.

[@awadoo4503]

Salve, amico!

[@luizfelipe5399]

@@randomserb761 all throughout the Middle Ages, u was just the minuscule form of V. Many Latin materials today don't use minsucule v at all, like Oxford Latin dictionary.

Are you learning Chinese as well? Do you know of any good resources to learn? Right now I'm stuck with Duolingo

[@ABAlphaBeta]

Don't use Duolingo to be honest. It can be a good starter, the jumpkick you need, but now you need to think in Chinese, speak Chinese, write Chinese. Copy Chinese texts. Talk to yourself in Chinese. Resources could be films, I believe Hengdian produces many; books: read Mandarin stuff if you are capable of doing so - if not, learn the Hani; talk to Chinese people on the Mandarin Discord or something like that. And no, I can't make a tone to save my life, and Mandarin isn't really on my personal list of languages to learn! German, Japanese and Okinawan are, but I'm not really motivated to learn them seriously

You could do some video with the portuguese language

[@billg3969]

Hmmm... is the Latin R trilled or tapped, or both? Scorpio seems to trill it all the time but here it is tapped. I just tend to follow to Spanish rules.

[@luizfelipe5399]

Luke from ScorpioMartianus channel says it as a tap only between vowels. Otherwise it's a trill. Between vowels include between words ending and begining with vowels (so 'in imperio Romano' or 'pastoR et oves' have tapped R's). That's where it does not follow exactly Spanish or Portuguese (my tongue), because initial R is always doubled in Portuguese/Spanish. I like to think of R in Latin as always a tap, when I see it doubled I also double it just like I do with all consonants and it becomes a trill naturally.

[@lauraaaaalol]

I've learned to pronounce the "æ" as the portuguese "é", is it wrong?

[@Columbator]

Unfortunately yes. The classical pronunciation has it as a diphthong (comes from "ai"). Same with "oe". That's why it's written with two separate letters instead of the ecclesiastical Latin ligature.

[@lauraaaaalol]

@@Columbator Thank you!

[@Columbator]

@@lauraaaaalol It was a pleasure. :) Maybe should you check videos about classical pronunciation if you want to be sure of the rest of your pronunciation.

[@ABAlphaBeta]

@@Columbator Depends on who, when, where. There were many dialects over a long time

[@Columbator]

@@ABAlphaBeta Of course, but we are talking the "standard" pronunciation, which is relevant to promote instead of some obscure and dialectal pronunciation if we wish interintelligibility. Everybody is free of his choices, but when we start to talk about a standard, it's necessary to correct things. There is also the ecclesiastical pronunciation, which is another standard, but I strongly discourage it if the goal is to learn Classical Latin.
