Re: Latin!?

I did, in fact, start a Latin translation, only to find out that my knowledge of Latin had deteriorated too much since I went to school (I couldn't remember the Latin words for "Computer", "Program" and "Sprite", lol! I even checked with the Vatican, because they have modern Latin expressions for these things, but was eventually just not up to it). Why don't you give it a try? I'd love to see a Latin translation of Scratch!

Re: Latin!?

Hmmm... it would be interesting to have a version of Scratch that runs in Latin.... That would be quite an interesting interdisciplinary course: Learn Programming the Ancient Roman Way.  smile

Re: Latin!?

there is modern words in latin which people have invented. i have a good knowledge of latin. i can do future, present, perfect future, perfect, imperfect, present passive, perfect passive. i also know the ablative abolute, know how to use adjectives and other stuff. also good knowledge of vocablary. it would be quite fun though to do scratch in latin, i may create a project.

Re: Latin!?

But the question is, who would use it? Latin isn't exactly a widely spoken language (not anymore anyways).
