Hey everyone I'm new to the forums, but I'm really excited that I've found them. I'm trying to learn Latin on my own and have to say I find it quite challenging. I really have issues translating the complex sentences and more of the longer ones. I'm having a lot of trouble with this story, I can figure out what it says and get the general idea, but it doesn't feel correct. This one part I'm having a big issue with.
"Sum plenus irae! Quare filios parvos mei fratris necabo secaboque. Tum membra coquam et thyestae cenam dabo." My translation was "I am full of anger. Wherefore (this is the part I'm having the issue) I kill my brother's little son and cut him up. Then I will cook the limbs and give (another issue) my brother it for dinner."
I think one of my issues is that I don't have all of the declensions memorized as I've been bogged down with school, but now that it's summer I've been doing it more frequently because of more free time. Thank you for the help in advanced.
