@nicosupersex y que cosas has dicho con nadie absolutamente nadie en suramerica habla latin eso tiene un significado muy fuerte.. usted no conoce a todas las personas en america del sur para decir eso .. que usted no lo hable no implica que los otros no puedan hacerlo!

[nicosupersex]

@MrDarknesslover lo idiomas oficiales en Suramérica son en la gran mayoría el español y el portugués, también existen innumerables lenguas indígenas, que aunque se etán extinguiendo. todavía son habladas, pero el latín como tal, no es una lengua ni oficial, ni parcial, ni nada. Si leés bien mis textos me refiero al lenguaje como algo cominicativo.... ¿entendés ese tipo de conceptos? o es que en realidad no has aprendido nada en la UCV??????

i love this song we performed it in my school choir my sophmore year

[RexAstrum]

hi :) if you could help me out here, is the way the piece was meant to be performed? with the irregular, slightly out-of-sync tempo?

[AlternativeBaroque]

@thisisthedeadgirl You're a fucking moron. Just wanted you to know that. You and your...Latin...father. lol

1. "Latin" was the language spoken by the Romans; it wasn't an ethnicity in and of itself. 2. The Roman alphabet was not 26 letters and did not include letters such as "W" and, you guessed it! "J". As western language became more homogenized and began to include other letters, the "I" sound (which is known in linguistics as a "j-glide") began to be replaced with "J".

[amatorynumber]

@nicosupersex Remember it is the official language of the Vatican :-D

[nicosupersex]

@amatorynumber hahhahahahhahh yeah, sure, they talk in latin inside the vatican...

[amatorynumber]

@nicosupersex Maybe John Paul II had a little extra official liason and the result was our friend whose 'dad' is latin... Lol You never know.

[SteamFanHannover]

This music is great, nearly perfect.

[SteamFanHannover]

@nicosupersex : thisisthedeadgirl is a cheater and liar, living in her own reality. She is schizophrenic, you have to it.

[NothingNoise]

I'm sorry I got confused with vocal sextet

[amatorynumber]

@thisisthedeadgirl your father is 'latin'? what is that supposed to mean?? :-D

[benerz11]

@thisisthedeadgirl o wow, how great. this is a score that people can actually READ! isn't that quaint?

[fade2blackarp]

It's great, but I can't hear the altos as well as I'd like :( lol I'm tryin to listen to them so I can practice for a concert that's comin up.

[molealto]

@fade2blackarp Agreed; they're much quieter than the tiple, tenor and bass.

[thomasoboelee]

Beautiful!!!

[yuchun02]

Perfect harmony and superb balance of voices.

[NothingNoise]

Where are the six voices?

I always thought it would be four

[margotlorena1]

@NothingNoise this composition is for four voices, who said it was for six???

[090513102]

What a fantastic countertenor! He brought me to tears.

[peloavila]

Beautiful!

@thisisthedeadgirl I meant no offense. But the Latin alphabet definitely has no J.

Latin alphabet:

The Romans used 23 letters to write Latin:

A B C D E F G H I K L M N O P Q R S T V X Y Z

There were no lower case letters, I and V could be used as both vowels and consonants, and K, X, Y and Z were used only for writing words of Greek origin.

The letters J, U and W were added to the alphabet at a later stage to write languages other than Latin.
