  • You have to work on your pronunciation. Hard. You never pronounce the double consonants. To name a few.

  • @therox68 I practiced on it, hard, for 4 years. I've relaxed it a bit, but I don't know what you're talking about. Care to share a specific example? double consonants? rr? I stated in my first video, I'm unable to trill my r's, Everything else, which is doubled (consonant or no) just repeats sound.

  • @latinguy2009 An example? Ancilla and villa, i hear no double "L", you must pronounce every double consonant, not just "RR", and the sound of the vowels is way more open.

  • @therox68 I do make the distinction, check some other videos, this may be a bad example. ll, nn, rr -- and others, I've clearly defined "general" pronunciation standards for the Classical Latin. As for my vowels-- again, this may not be the best video, however, it's accurately depicted with the way I speak.

  • @latinguy2009 I'm not questioning your knowledge of the language but the contrast between short and long consonants is very important and i did not hear that, maybe i'll do what you told me and check some other video of yours.
