Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution

Latin in Layman’s gives you the ability to understand and command language in a whole new respect. Join a typical grammarian and classicist as I expand your vocabulary, understanding of grammar, Etymology, terminology (i.e. legal, medical, botanical, etc.), and so much more. I also utilize this platform to expand on greater thoughts of mine, as well as discussing the importance of language and the promotion of "The Language Revival" (as I like to call it...) Thank you for your interested in

Latin Grammar Mini-Series | Lesson 11 - Pronouns

2023/09/02

“Personal” in grammar means “relating to person,” that is, first, second, or third person. In English, those persons are represented by pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we, ya’ll, they. These MUST look familiar as they are forms we’ve already studied in relation to verbs. Now we’ll look at them independently as pronouns. So, how does Latin treat these forms, not as verb endings but as nouns? There is a caveat: they decline through cases as nouns do in Latin, so you have more to memorize. Remember how

Acceleration – the change in velocity over time Acceleration: The term "acceleration" comes from the Latin word "acceleratio," which means "a hastening." The concept of acceleration as the rate of change of velocity over time was formulated in the context of classical mechanics by Isaac Newton. Newton's second law of motion relates force to acceleration and mass, providing a foundational understanding of how objects change their motion when subjected to

There are three important rules to remember: (1) the// thematic vowel in fourth conjugation is -i-; (2) the future tense sign in fourth conjugation is -e- and; (3) the third-io conjugation resembles fourth conjugation more than third. The formation of the present tense in fourth conjugation follows the same pattern as the other conjugations: a fourth-conjugation verb base is added a thematic vowel, in this case -i-, and onto that are appended personal endings. Those personal endings are the same

Demonstrative pronouns, like English words “this” and “that,” point at something. They’re often used as adjectives, as in, “this book” or “that tree.” In English, demonstrative pronouns take a different form in the plural: “this” becomes “these,” and “that” becomes “those” ─ making them one of the few English adjective forms which are different in the singular and plural. Though they are at heart adjectives, because they so often stand alone, it’s almost better to consider them pronouns. For

Third declension is Latin’s “catch-all” category for nouns. Into it have been put all nouns whose bases end with consonants -- yep, any consonant! That makes third declension very different from first and second declension. First declension, as you’ll remember, is dominated by a-stem nouns like femina and cura. Second declension is dominated by o- or u-stem nouns like amicus or oculus. Because of those vowels, we are given a bit of consistency within those declensions… The same is not true of third

Avocado. The word avocado comes from the Nahuatl word ahuacatl, which means "testicle." This is because the avocado fruit is shaped like a testicle. The Nahuatl word was borrowed into Spanish as aguacate, and then into English as avocado. The word "avocado" is also interesting because it is a false cognate. A false cognate is a word that looks like it has the same meaning in two different languages, but actually has a different meaning. In this case, the Spanish word

The future tense indicates that the action of the verb will take place at some point after the present. The English future tense sign is “will.” “Shall” is no longer used.

It is important to be aware of the etymological origins of these words. The roots of many hurtful words are in violence, anger, and contempt. This suggests that these words have been used for centuries to inflict pain and to dehumanize others. We can all do our part to create a more empathetic and compassionate world by choosing our words carefully and avoiding hurtful and non-empathic language.
