Its Epic. A sailor sets of in search of hidden treasure in the service of his queen. Enemies, both natural and marvelous. The help of the divine gods. Can you read it? If you have completed Lesson 15 of Learning Latin with Virgil, then there is a good chance you can. Leave a comment telling me what you think. Or better still, use the vocabulary you are learning to write a story of your own. A sailor chasing a whale? A queen looking for a statue? A god visiting the people on earth? And don't be afraid to make a mistake. I made two - see if you can find them.
Excellent. Had to look up a few words that I forgot, but I got the rest of it. Also, I'm trying to strengthen my "audio" understanding of Latin, so I was trying to do most of it while looking someplace else (not at the printed words or the pictures). Thanks for the series!

South Park in Rome! I was waiting for the dirty jokes (comedia immunda?), but maybe my Latin wasn't good enough to spot them...

Nice video! Looking forward to lesson 16.
In the word 'circum', shouldn't the 'i' be pronounced like the 'i' in 'insula' by the way?
Somewhat like 'keer-koom' :P
