Optimus modus latini discendi est mercedes electronicas non vendere et latinam linguam discere non simulare.

The best way to learn latin is to not be selling electronics while pretending to learn latin.
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.

Nota bene: I deleted the spam post in question, but I wanted to reply so that Adrianus doesn't confuse newcomers with his seemingly obvious recommendation, which now appears as the first post.
