I'm so happy, this was a wonderful video to teach me this. I couldn't understand it before but now I do. Thanks!!!

Thank you! It's been very useful.

I was looking to see what the difference between the Latin quantitative meter and the qualitative meter of the later vernacular poems meant. I came across the distinction in a book I was reading. Your description helped a lot. Now I see how the Latin meter can be perceived as a quantitative formula.

Thank you for this video! I've been completely lost when scanning during my Latin class recently, but now I understand.

Nice background information for the train spotters like me. Love the dactyl thing.
