Final -M with Nasal Pronunciation

Post by Lucus Eques »

Cari sodales, many years ago I first learned at TextKit that the final -M of Latin is nasalized (and I argued against the people who said so! haha). I am grateful for their careful explanations, and in return I have attempted to pay this knowledge forward by making this video explaning the rationale for this exquisite sound in the Latin language; I hope you enjoy it!
