Give it a Break, will you?, your fighting for some exorcism when what matters here is the show, and just to be sure, Jensen Ackles is a great actor but he is not perfect, so Shut Up!.
oh come on who gives a horse's ass about their latin accent it is obvious not right but it sounds extra cool for those who never studied latin and i guess we are massive majority... besides who else except italians give emphasis to a dead language?
Latin??? please... this fool sounded like me 10 years ago when I first tried to read anything in English... the demon was probably thinking (in latin): WTF are you sayin'?
This is not latin. its a weird italian latin hybrid language. The ancient Latin language did not have a "ch" sounding letter. the "C" was pronounced as "k"
so, veni vidi vichi is actually supposed to be pronounced:
@tharwpoop and in classical latin the v is pronounced like a w. so you are wrong too. Get over it, it is a television show. I'd listen to Jensen Ackles read any kind of latin all day long then ask for seconds! He could be speaking in pig latin and I wouldn't give a shit cause he is hot as hell and supernatural is a fun as hell show.
@stocktonwood i wasnt talking about the v or the w. just about the C and Ch pronunciation. I figure if they want to make it sound authentic the least they could do is pronounce a few words correctly. how many people flipped a bitch when Aang, from the last airbender movie was mispronounced?
@TheC1684 Such harsh words. I'm sorry you want him to speak Latin so badly that it offends you so. You should probably refer to his Latin coach as the idiot....if you really get that emotional over this sorta stuff.
Oh, give poor Dean a break already. Just a tv show. You're ready to eat him. Who says that just because he is an actor and speaks Latin that they have to speak the language perfectly? I say it's really good, so let him be. :)
His pronunciation may sound wrong, but it may just be sound like that because you learned the Classical pronunciation. Dean is using Ecclesastical Latin (aka church latin), which makes sense.
Of course, I've never heard Ecclesiastical Latin before this, so this may actually be a bad pronunciation of Ecclesiastical Latin.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'what do they teach you in school'? I'm not Dean. I never even took Latin. I have a Latin book that I've skimmed over, but I've never tried it, sooo...
Yes, it pretty bad, but he's just an actor on a TV series. I've heard much worse from Latin professors in England and Rome. In Italy I heard people reading classical Latin poetry using the ecclesiastic pronunciation. Yikes! In Greece, I met people who imposed modern Greek pronunciation onto Homer – it's not even close anymore -- and these same people would try to tell respected ancient Greek scholars that they doing it wrong.

@acuriousbeast oh fuk off, i bet if he did the exorcism in english im sure, "u" wouldnt say shit , it doesnt fukn matter either way , its just a language !
@nat11223344 Since I'm a Catholic who attends Mass using Latin and since Exorcism is a ritual of the Church (in either language) I probably would have. I take exception to seeing aspects of my Faith being ridiculed and bastardized for others amusement just like Native Americans are sick of seeing white people taking made up tribal names and claiming themselves shaman. So now it's your turn to fuck off, asshole.
@acuriousbeast: exorcism is practiced in almost every religion. So don't get pissed off. Anyway it's nonsense, because exorcisms are just hollow rituals which do not solve anything. Not strange, since possessions are nonsense as well. It's all crap just like the pronunciation of this actor and his acting skills.
@PerseusHeros Being a Hispanic American Altar Boy, I'm always showing off my fluent Latin pronounciation to my comrades who have so much trouble with their thick English accents! (One of them pronounces "mulieribus" as "muli-le-le-bus" lol =)

Flee, Satan, inventor and teacher of all lies, enemy of human health. Humiliate yourself before God's powerful hand."
@TheKiamster I noticed that people with English as their first language have atrocious Latin accents. Should I mention Hollywood flicks where characters who are not even supposed to know english speak Latin with a heavy English accent and nobody seems to notice?
Latin is easy to learn because it is so close to the English language. However, no one I talk to speaks Latin, therefore I care not to learn it. Lol. It's known as the dead language, of course.
@TheShortGirl90 From what I know, Latin really close to French, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese not English. I don't know why we like to say that English came from Latin.
@bellaKohler i'd hardly say that all languages stemmed from latin. english has latin roots, but it's actually a germanic language. latin was the basis of all of today's romantic languages, such as french, spanish, italian etc.... but there are hundreds of different language families, many of which don't relate to latin at all.
@Boneyman well, at school they taught me that in England they spoke french and latin before Chaucer...and then he "created" middle english...which is a mix of neo-latin languages and germanic ones...in fact, in english you can say "freedom" which comes from germanic languages, but you can also say "liberty" which comes from latin =) so that's why english is ALSO a neo-latin language!
@AnathemaGothica Chaucer was the first person to establish English as a legitimate language for literary writing (as French and Latin were the two scholarly languages use by the upper class), but he was born almost 3 centuries after the birth of Middle English. When the Normans invaded England in 1066, the incoming French mixed with the native language (what we now call Old English) and created Middle English. English a Germanic language with a heavy French influence, not a romance language.
@kash1123 Yes, you're right! I was just trying to explain why some people say that English is a romance language...because it has, like you said, a heavy french influence! But I perfectly know it's a Germanic language...maybe I didn't explain it really well XD Sorry for that but I'm not English =)
It isn't used anymore, that doesn't mean It cannot be learned. There are grammar books, syntax books and the vocabulary as well as original latin texts available. Plus it is taught at schools, at least in my country. Same thing with ancient Greek.

Oh my god is he sexy speaking a different language. and for the record, no one knows the accent for Latin cause it's a dead language anyway. and if you do know, who cares? it's a dead language.
Actually, Latin doesn't have an accent. The mistake they're doing is they're talking Medieval Latin. There's a moment when Sam says Spiritus Vitae or something like that. He's says Vitae met a V not with a W like it's said in Classical Latin.
I just get annoyed by it and than the fault of the accent? I mean, back in those days, there were a lot of accents in Latium (It's the place where Latin started) and the villages near it. And I don't even begin with Italy!
It isn't better in America and it isn't better in Europe, at some things America is better and the same goes for Europe. I mean: America doesn't have so many languages as Europe does. I already learn to speak three languages: Dutch, French and English and I'm just in my second year of high school. Europe is the best place to learn languages. Ofcourse it's hard, but I think it forces people to learn from young age. America is THE place for technology.
Ok this is now 2009 I don't care how he pronounces Latin he just sounds HOT no EXTREMELY HOT speaking it because it is in a different language be happy with his Spanish that he speaks on Supernatural at least he pronounces the words right!!!
Jeezus, his accent is atrocious. Check this link to hear perfect latin chanting: watch?v=rd4aD47Qbm8
As for normal casual latin, ask any romanian (who did at least 1 hour of latin ar school) to read a latin text. That's preety much how it used to sound.
Actually, the Romans tended to use the verb "sum" in between the two parts since otherwise it is difficult to tell what is what, for instance, if you say ab = cd, but are trying to do abcd =, it's difficult to say what is equal to what (it could be interpreted as abc = d, or a = bcd), and since they are in the same form (nominative unless you are saying "crēdo virum esse stultum", where you use the infinitive and both vir and stultus are in the accusative.
Order doesn't matter all that much. I mean, all of the subject has to be together, and the separate parts of the same preposition have to be together, but otherwise, it's not too big of a deal.
Technically, today, there is no accent though :P. Nobody knows how the Romans actually spoke it since there are no native speakers of Latin, there aren't any Romans to show us how it's REALLY spoken without an accent.
Right. Even Classical Latin, while more in accordance with "true" Latin, was not how it would have been spoken by a commoner. By the time of the Empire, Cicero's Latin was likely unused except by members of the upper class, or by bards/storytellers reciting poetry or literary pieces. The actual spoken language was what is known as "Vulgar Latin". The manner of speaking would have depended on the province, just like people have varying regional slang and methods of pronunciation nowadays.
Caesar wasn't one of the Optimates, but he still was an educated patrician. Nonetheless, he was raised in Subura, apparently a rather salacious neighborhood, which is why some of the elite looked down on Caesar. My guess is he spoke as one of the patricians would, but who knows?
Hmm..well Vulgar Latin some of the words are different aren't they? Like instead of equus being a horse it's caballus. And Bucca is mouth I think instead of cheek. Makes sense, since that's where Spanish gets "boca" and "caballo" from.
He is doing a kind of exorcism and that´s the reason his pronunciation is medieval. All that stuff is a church invention; ancient romans did not have it.
More people speak Latin today than everybody in the entire Roman empire...and all the medical terms, they're straight up Latin. Gluteus Maximus, that's Latin. That's why cactus or fungus both become cacti and fungi, English used the Latin rule of the -us words, when there's more than one, they become -i. And a lot of the words that end in tion or ion, they're most likely Latin words, just take off the letter n, and that's the word in Latin. Segregatio, revolutio, even constipatio.
People who would find latin useful. Doctors, gardeners, scientists, linguists, lawyers, writers, archaeologists, zoologists, vets.Latin words are still used a lot in those fields. Latin has a precise grammatical structure which is signalled clearly by tenses and endings and structuresof nouns and verbs . Once you know this you can more easily know and understand the grammatical structure of english and other european languages and it makes learning languages easier.
and as for people who think he speaks to much with an english accent, i would really love to hear your perfect latin accents considering it's an ancient language that hasn't been spoken in god knows how long
I wish Latinum was still a language, not that it isn't, but like used as much as Spanish, English, Italian..you know. It's really dumb though when people say it's a dead language and it really isn't!
This is not true latin due to the fact that when listening you can clearly hear the pronounciation of the letter V which is pronounced as a W in latin also all C's are pronunced as K's which is also not shown in this video
However the words are actually latin just not all pronounced corectly
It's the newer Latin..yeah I hate it, too. In medieval times they made V a letter, since V and U were like...the same letter, although V was more like a W when it was at the beginning of the word or in between two vowels. But yeah, I hate it when people pronounce V. But his Latin is the church Latin, where they made C like Italian, where Ce or Ci would be "Che" or "Chi", even Cae would be "Che". Which is why they have Iulius "Chesar". or "Pater noster qui es in "chelis".
If you speak english,french,romainian,spanish or any of the "romantic" languages having an understanding of latin alows you to better understand more complex words and understand your language better

Actually, Latin doesn't have an accent. The mistake they're doing is they're talking Medieval Latin. There's a moment when Sam says Spiritus Vitae or something like that. He's says Vitae met a V not with a W like it's said in Classical Latin.

well thank you. you proved my point. :)
trahkcol92 2 years ago
I just get annoyed by it and than the fault of the accent? I mean, back in those days, there were a lot of accents in Latium (It's the place where Latin started) and the villages near it. And I don't even begin with Italy!
Migiona 2 years ago
lol i'm sorry for people and their faults of latin. :)
trahkcol92 2 years ago
To bad people just don't think. Maybe it's because the Classical Latin isn't a popular in America than it is in Europe.
Migiona 2 years ago
do you live in europe? cause i can tell you right now, it will always be infinitely better than america. in every way. :)
trahkcol92 2 years ago
It isn't better in America and it isn't better in Europe, at some things America is better and the same goes for Europe. I mean: America doesn't have so many languages as Europe does. I already learn to speak three languages: Dutch, French and English and I'm just in my second year of high school. Europe is the best place to learn languages. Ofcourse it's hard, but I think it forces people to learn from young age. America is THE place for technology.

As for normal casual latin, ask any romanian (who did at least 1 hour of latin ar school) to read a latin text. That's preety much how it used to sound.

Actually, the Romans tended to use the verb "sum" in between the two parts since otherwise it is difficult to tell what is what, for instance, if you say ab = cd, but are trying to do abcd =, it's difficult to say what is equal to what (it could be interpreted as abc = d, or a = bcd), and since they are in the same form (nominative unless you are saying "crēdo virum esse stultum", where you use the infinitive and both vir and stultus are in the accusative.

Order doesn't matter all that much. I mean, all of the subject has to be together, and the separate parts of the same preposition have to be together, but otherwise, it's not too big of a deal.

Technically, today, there is no accent though :P. Nobody knows how the Romans actually spoke it since there are no native speakers of Latin, there aren't any Romans to show us how it's REALLY spoken without an accent.
mario54671 2 years ago
Right. Even Classical Latin, while more in accordance with "true" Latin, was not how it would have been spoken by a commoner. By the time of the Empire, Cicero's Latin was likely unused except by members of the upper class, or by bards/storytellers reciting poetry or literary pieces. The actual spoken language was what is known as "Vulgar Latin". The manner of speaking would have depended on the province, just like people have varying regional slang and methods of pronunciation nowadays.
NASk8er4778 2 years ago
Ahh well that makes sense. But still, they didn't speak freakin Medieval or Church Latin! I hate that stuff...
But so you're saying Caesar spoke Classical Latin then? Like when he said "Veni Vidi Vici" he said "Weni Widi Wiki"?
mario54671 2 years ago
Caesar wasn't one of the Optimates, but he still was an educated patrician. Nonetheless, he was raised in Subura, apparently a rather salacious neighborhood, which is why some of the elite looked down on Caesar. My guess is he spoke as one of the patricians would, but who knows?
NASk8er4778 2 years ago
Hmm..well Vulgar Latin some of the words are different aren't they? Like instead of equus being a horse it's caballus. And Bucca is mouth I think instead of cheek. Makes sense, since that's where Spanish gets "boca" and "caballo" from.
mario54671 2 years ago
He is doing a kind of exorcism and that´s the reason his pronunciation is medieval. All that stuff is a church invention; ancient romans did not have it.

The pronunciation is not an "invention". It's the way the language naturally evolved after the Classical era.

More people speak Latin today than everybody in the entire Roman empire...and all the medical terms, they're straight up Latin. Gluteus Maximus, that's Latin. That's why cactus or fungus both become cacti and fungi, English used the Latin rule of the -us words, when there's more than one, they become -i. And a lot of the words that end in tion or ion, they're most likely Latin words, just take off the letter n, and that's the word in Latin. Segregatio, revolutio, even constipatio.

In support of Latin.
People who would find latin useful. Doctors, gardeners, scientists, linguists, lawyers, writers, archaeologists, zoologists, vets.Latin words are still used a lot in those fields. Latin has a precise grammatical structure which is signalled clearly by tenses and endings and structuresof nouns and verbs . Once you know this you can more easily know and understand the grammatical structure of english and other european languages and it makes learning languages easier.

This is not true latin due to the fact that when listening you can clearly hear the pronounciation of the letter V which is pronounced as a W in latin also all C's are pronunced as K's which is also not shown in this video
However the words are actually latin just not all pronounced corectly
JarHeadRich 3 years ago
It's the newer Latin..yeah I hate it, too. In medieval times they made V a letter, since V and U were like...the same letter, although V was more like a W when it was at the beginning of the word or in between two vowels. But yeah, I hate it when people pronounce V. But his Latin is the church Latin, where they made C like Italian, where Ce or Ci would be "Che" or "Chi", even Cae would be "Che". Which is why they have Iulius "Chesar". or "Pater noster qui es in "chelis".
