Non enim inter latera nostra sica illa versabitur;
Non in Campo, Non in Foro, Non in Curia, Non denique inter domesticos parietes PERSIMESCEMUS!!!!!!!
LOCO, ILLE, Motus est, cum est ex urbe Depulsus! Palam IAM cum hoste, NULLO IMPEDIENTE, BELLUM IUUUUSTUM, GEEEEREEEEEMUUUUUUUSSS!!!!!

here, this man is the god of latin pronunciation. He also has the ScorpioMartianus channel where he speaks only latin and greek.

The stupid post-colonialists have got their fingers into classical history now as well. Disgusting.

Poor diets are a sign of poverty. Famines aren’t the only kind of poverty, frog poster.

>>17825391
He's right though. Malnourished fat people are only really possible in post-industrial poverty, where there's a surplus of calories but a dearth of nutrition. If you were poor in 300 the food you ate was nutritious, but you weren't eating enough calories.

This is a TV show and extras are modern westerners.

Nice Borkbork btw. You've got great taste in women.

>>17825412
Granted. And thanks.

No thanks, I'd rather watch Romulus with actors acting in proto-Latin

Noble savage memes, which is also inaccurate because vikings weren't like that

>>17825286
Yes how dare they stay in their native land and refuse to hand over everything to violent invaders

>>17825508
Are you implying the Germs were not violent invaders themselves? The world back then was unanimously kill or be killed, the Romans just the best at it, and might makes right.

Watched it not long ago and it triggered my Latin autism really bad. Grammar is sloppy in parts.

>>17825513
Yes they violently invaded Rome and destroyed it, leading to hundreds of years of butthurt from swarthy manlets who have been relegated to the fringes of history while the Germanics flew to the moon. And to add insult to injury they have to deal with deracinated new world LARPers who wuz Romanz. UGH if only the Germs hadn't destroyed our epic empire duuude.

I was surprised that an American could speak Latin without a dog shit accent but then I did some digging and found that he studied Italian. Mystery solved.

>>17825686
Italian is Latin with a dogshit accent, vaffanculo

>>17825574
>being so butthurt that you reported a meme to daddy janny

We don't even know how Latin sounded like.

>>17825748
This is what the retarded germanics that learned Latin would've sounded like.

>>17825728
yes we do, it can be reconstructed through it's descendants and reports from Roman grammarians on pronunciation

>>17825786
Italian is one of its descendants and you just said it was a dogshit accent.

>>17825351
the fat dude made me kek for some reason

>>17825809
fat dudes are inherently hilarious

>>17825798
Wasn't me but yes Italian is not the same as Latin pronunciation, which is why it's a good thing it has multiple other descendants that are much closer like Sardinian and again descriptions of the pronunciation from contemporary Romans

>>17825818
It's close enough, I would say. The actors used in the clip are Italian and from there to Latin, the gap is not that far. Certainly not the same, but not that far.

>>17824862
Yes, but you must consider that these actors too speak with an accent. Fortunately, they're Romance language speakers, so they're pretty close.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PZ18Wjqt1w this is some of the best Latin I've ever heard recorded.

>>17825452
Well, y'know, that's how it goes. Dirty fucking Germs can't speak the most graceful and beautiful language to ever grace this bitch planet.

Hey, even if it is more ecclesiastical, it's better than everything else I've heard. That you cannot deny, meus amicus.

>>17825907
It would be fine if he picked either ecclesiastical or classical but it seems like he's just pronouncing it however he would pronounce them in his native, presumably Romance, language but also with a w for the v to make it seem like he's at least trying. He doesn't even pronounce the "ae" right. I'll bring up Scorpio Martianus again.

(I don't know why he is so dramatic in this video)

>>17825836
I listened to this and it was a pleasure. He puts a lot of emotion into it. I recc this and the channel as a whole. They have a lot of gems from antiquity set to music.

>>17825929
This is good, but I can't get past his natural English accent seeping through. I like Metatron's speaking.

>>17825946
Not bad, but I'm not a big fan of Latin being sung.

>>17825976
I'm sure he does have an accent but I don't see how you can hear it or distinguish it from Metatron when there is probably nobody who doesn't have an accent that you can hold as a standard, seeing as it's almost impossible to learn a second language without an accent even if it's one that has living native speakers you can listen to.

>>17825269
>LA CREATVRA

>>17826036
Yeah I know, I mean that his accent detracts whereas Metatron's accent I feel makes it feel more like the real thing.
