Monty Python's "Life of Brian" (Romanes eunt domus...)

[Gimmel748]

The brilliant part about all this is that John Cleese actually worked as a Latin teacher (and that the correction in latin is actually more or less correct.. ) .. damn, you don't get to see many Latin-speaking comedians these days :] .. sic transit gloria mundi, I guess..

[tommyt1971]

John actually was a teacher before Python but they're both using their exp as Latin students, esp Chapman, who studied to be a doctor...

[leaware]

That is some funny, funny stuff!

'To go' in Latin is ire, not ere

[MsPolyhymnia]

It is an irregular verb : eo, ire, ii, iturus

[ilcaliffoitaliano]

eo, is, ii, itum, ire

[Blashphemist]

Kannst du das video nicht verstehen?

[TnseWlms]

Sie können diese Szene auf Deutsch sehen.

Suchen Sie nach "das Leben des Brian Lateinunterricht."

Viel Vergnügen!

[riggs2009]

[robotpanda77]

John makes a great roman commander.

In high school Latin class, I once translated "Ubi, servus, filius nautae est?" as "Slave, is Ubi the sailor's son?"

[frostythesasquatch]

Wow, that's incredible. I just finished a latin course this semester and, near the beginning, I mistranslated, "Romani magni aurigae laudant," as, "Romans praise great ears." I thought it was an idiom that didn't translate straight across.

[millerhighlife06]

I know what you mean. When I first studied Latin, I butchered Catullus so badly that my teacher was laughing while reading it.

[rakoc001]

How much fun must they have had writing/filming this scene.

[juann8990]

loving it :) - especially since i'm about to finish 4 years of torture by latin ^^

[iamvegito]

Locative would be incorrect in this context, and by the way, it is domi.

[1madster2]

adding to the latin, "sumper ubi sub ubi", a really good lesson, if you don't Estis uno asinas stultis.

[iamvegito]

Always where under where!

[1madster2]

haha,awesome!!!!...now do you know what the other part means??

[tbroberg]

Yeah, it does bring back visceral memories from high school.

[vigo894]

Romans Go Home.

[IsoTheScissorMonster]

haha! the great monty python!

"now dont do it again!"

[tarnopol]

One of the best bits they ever did...

[diaperbiscuits2]

"If it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off"- genius.

[GhostDragon10]

Great clip, just like Latin class! xDDD
