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

XII. Third Conjugation - Latin in Layman's (REVAMPED)

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2022/02/21

Here are two important rules for you to remember: (1) the thematic vowel in third conjugation is a short vowel; it appears as -i- or -u- in the present and -e- in the imperfect (2) The tense sign for the future in third conjugation is -e-; the future tense in third conjugation uses no thematic vowel Luckily, the formation of the present tense in third conjugation follows a pattern similar to that seen in first and second conjugation. Take a third-conjugation verb base add a thematic vowel

There are three important rules to remember: (1) the tense sign for the future tense is -bi- meaning “will”; (2) the tense sign for the imperfect tense is -ba- meaning “was” or “were,” “used to,” “kept on,” or “did”; (3) adjective endings are directional.

X. Demonstrative Pronouns - Hic, Ille and Iste (Latin...

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2022/02/18

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. Singular Plural hic, haec, hoc; hi, hae, haec; huius, huius, huius; horum, harum, horum; huic, huic, huic; his, his,

IX. Third-Declension Nouns - Latin in Layman's...

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2022/02/13

We’ve already encountered first- and second-declension nouns. Now we’ll address the third. A fair question to ask, and one which some of you may be asking, is why is there a third declension at all? Third declension is Latin’s “catch-all” category for nouns. Here are the endings in both the singular an plural, for reference: 1. Nominative (sing.) --- (pl.) -es 2. Gentive (sing.) -is (pl.) -um 3. Dative (sing.) -i (pl.) -ibus 4. Accusative (sing.) -em (pl.) -es 5. Ablative (sing.) -e (pl.)

VI. Neuter Nouns and Substantive Nouns - Latin in...

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2022/02/05

Here, I get into the second declension neuter gender and the concept of substantive nouns. Why get into it? Because the more you know, the more you know! I get into a couple side tangents at both the beginning and end of this episode. Feel free to fast forward. Ask yourself... Why are they called substantives? Might look like "substance?" I dunno though... Here’s an example of a second-declension neuter noun: bellum, a word which means “war.” Let’s decline it together: Bellum Belli Bello

V. The Verb: "To Be" - Intransitive vs. Transitive Verbs

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2022/02/03

Here is an example of "Sum", declined in all persons (First singular, then plural.) sum → “I am”; sumus → “we are”; es → “you are”; estis → “y’all are/you (p) are/you all are”; est → “he, she, it is” or “there is”*; sunt → “they are” In this episode, I dive into the understanding of the verb, "To be", which functions differently than the regular verbs we've dealt with before... That is, those that take on an Accusative Direct Object. Stay tuned for knowledge mode.

IV. Second Declension Masculine - Latin in Layman's...

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2022/02/02

Here, I go, in-depth, into the second declension, where second declension includes mostly masculine and neuter nouns with -o- at the end of their base. With the addition of the second declension, we add a whole new set of vocabulary into the mix. Yay, more words! I do my best to draw out the process of forming a second declension noun, please do your best to visualize a declension table or look one up for reference. Here are the endings for second declension masculine, beginning with the singular.

Here I first get on a SOAP box in discussing the real reason as to why I love Latin and why this is more than a language podcast, but more like an "Everything" type of podcast. That's why I like Latin, because it amplifies your understanding of the world around you. After my five minute rant, I get into understanding parts of speech, and then apply it to their Latin counterparts. As I tell my students, they're just fancy-dancy-10-dollar words that mean simple grammatical concepts! The example I

This is why I love Latin... for the depth it gives to language in general. We go over the terms: Hypernatremia, Hyponatremia, Hypothermia, Hyperglycemia, Hypoglycemia, Armistice and Subpoena. Here we understand the importance of prefixes, affixes, suffixes, etc. I swear... If you think Latin is dead... You've just been proven wrong. Thanks and goodbye to antiquated thinking!

Hi all! It's been a while and I've come back to you with newly added vigor and ready to bridge Latin into modernity!!! I want to tank my cousin, Sloan Connerly, for sending me an "outta-the-blue" gift: a new beautiful microphone. LET'S GOOOO! Follow me as we hone-in our craft of language and see the true utility of Latin in our everyday lives. Also, give me a follow on TIKTOK @mrconnerly!

Lesson 27 - The Present Subjunctive | Part One

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2021/07/15

This is a doozy of a lesson so I’ve split it up into two parts. The subjunctive is what is known to be the mood of uncertainty… but more often than not, it simply introduces specific types of clauses and/or subordinating constructions. This is when Latin translation becomes more fluid and contextual rather than clunky and fragmented Wheelock’s sentences (Don’t @ me Wheelock.) Anyways, very important grammar to learn as well as linguistics and the evolution of our Proto-Indo-European Mother tongue

Lesson 26 - The Indirect Statement

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2021/07/14

Here, I go over a key important concept within both English and Latin grammar. This is the introduction into another subordinate construction (Like Ablative Absolutes) that indirectly and circuitously state a direct quote, action, thought, etc. Stay tuned for knowledge!

Lesson 24 - The Uses of the Participles

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2021/07/11

Here we go over the constructions of the ablative absolute and the passive periphrastic. Definitely ten-dollar terms for explaining how to make a sentence more convoluted and circuitous. Stick with me!! We’re switching into syntactical Latin and leaving behind its rudimentary formation counterpart! This is when it gets good and when we’ll start to incorporate Harry Potter in Latin!

Lesson 23 - Participles

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2021/07/06

Here we have a VERY important lesson and one of my very favorite topics in Latin! (Don’t ask me why, I think it’s cause I got it the first time I read what they were…) I have always thought of these constructions as verbial adjectives. Not sure if I can coin that or not… Remember, as we go through this lesson, there is no such thing as a present passive participle or a perfect active particle! That means you only have four forms to memorize here instead of six!!! Yayayaya(ya)!

Lesson 19 - Perfect Passive System

Latin in Layman’s - A Rhetoric Revolution ·

2021/06/30

Here I go over the formation, literal translation, and functions of the perfect passive system in all of its forms: present prefect passive, pluperfect passive, future perfect passive… I recommend to do a little refresher of the present passive system in order to remember just how we form passive verbs and what type of agents (Not Direct Objects!!!!) they expect.

Lesson 18 - Relative Pronouns and Clauses

More pronoun stuff and understanding some basic fundamentals in grammar as we tackle what clauses are, subordinating clauses, antecedents, and just why the heck they’re so important to our understanding of language and sentence structure! I’M NOT BORING I PROMISE.
