At first E I was afraid of you, with your aggressive knowledge of how to speak it well and your dismissive commentary on and about everyone else, but it seems as though you really do like helping (from this response and others that you’ve posted recently). And after the initial terror evanesced, I was discriminating enough to know that the people whom you berate are well-known to you (and it’s a loving kind of scold), be it from real life or textkit.
I’m relatively terrorised again that you’ll take this the wrong way and metaphorically club me, repeatedly, and mostly in a language that I’m nowhere near understanding; in this area, I can’t bludgeon back.
Neque vero negarem me quadam globulorum causa fortitudinis inopiae semper abstitisse, sed tantum unam vereor; reliquas enim flocci non facit Episcopus ille.
te relinquere non volo Episcope; bene quae tibi dixi lege. cur mihi floccos non facere Episcopum illum dixisti? me vulneras, E.
From what I half-got, that’s about all the very broken Latin with which I’m going to try to respond; hopefully the point came through.
My translation, thanks in large part to the Oxford minidictionary (I can see the grimace now, but I can’t afford the big one yet; and I have my Latin/Spanish dictionary, much bigger and more detailed, on the way):
He fears that which (because?) you are kinder to make angry (. . . ?)
Nor in truth might I deny that I always stood at a certain distance because of the want of courage of that little tightly-packed throng; . . . ? I am respected; you may disregard [me], truly that Episcopus doesn’t consider it of the least importance.
I’d much rather have the English translation from you, however. I now brace for my next batch of beating
The present stem of sum is es-; and the personal ending 1st person singular is, as you know, -m. I was naughty. es+m esm → sum
gratus - pleasing, acceptable, popular etc - gratior here - more popular
irascor - irascere 2nd person present, remember irasci is deponent!
ablative of comparison te
-met added on to personal pronouns intensive
Than you because I am more popular you get angry
And I will not deny that I, devoid of testicular fortitude, have always stood away from a certain female, but I only fear one - for the rest I care not.
I respect you for reading! Most think that I do not make sense! Sorry about the esm that was whiteoctaves mor!
