Salve, Perspicue.

Per - speeee' - coo - oos (birds coo // u sonus per anglicè "coo")
4 vowels: short - long and stressed - short - short and the r trilled very briefly.
Sunt quattuor vocales: brevis - longa et accentuum habens - brevis - brevis, et r consonans brevitissimè trucilata.
I'm writing in Latin hoping for correction, and not because I'm confident in how I express myself. Latinè scribo ut ab omnibus corrigar, non quod confidenter me exprimam.
