La   tin II Assignment, week of February 20, 2007

Nota Bene: We are in National Latin Exam crunch time. Your assignments will be hefty the next 6 weeks or so.  Take heart.  I am sure you will do very well on the exam.  Things will lighten up around the second week of March. Please set the timer for 80 minutes or do your assignment in two 40  minute chunks and you should have plenty of time.  If you should run out of time, it’s OK, but please put forth your best effort. ~Magistra Rose

Nota Bene: All written assignments must be labeled, dated, and written legibly with a pen or No. 2 pencil.

Remember, Engage!!!

Your latin quotation for the week is:

Amicus certus in re incerta cernitur. 

A true friend is discerned during an uncertain matter. Or more loosely “A friend in need is a friend indeed.”

 

Extra credit opportunity [Worth one quiz]:

Give the literal (word for word) translation of the quotation from John Chapter 1 below.  You may use your Bibles.

1.  in principio erat Verbum et Verbum erat apud Deum et Deus erat Verbum

2.  hoc erat in principio apud Deum

3.  omnia per ipsum facta sunt et sine ipso factum est nihil quod factum est

4.  in ipso vita erat et vita erat lux hominum

5.  et lux in tenebris lucet et tenebrae eam non conprehenderunt

 

Amicus certus in re incerta cernitur. 

A true friend is discerned during an uncertain matter. Or more loosely “A friend in need is a friend indeed.”
