¹Thesaurus linguae Latinae says sub uoce inquam:
To be honest, I don’t know what polissimum means. ‘Most often’?
I bet it’s potissimum.
Thanks, Bedwere. You’re probably right; it’s always difficult for me to expect an error, even though even the ThlL didn’t have this word… (I was using the online version of the ThlL on the homepage of the publisher, so there could be a copying error, as the article inquam [by Szantyr, by the way] is from the pre-digital age of the 1950’s.)
For “friendship” dictionary offers constructions est mihi amicitia cum aliquo and sum in amicitia cum aliquo, but not with habere.
EDIT. I now checked the ThlL, and in fact there are a few cases of habere amicitiam in classical literature, so it’s not impossible, but maybe the constructions I suggested above are still preferable?
Apologies, don’t know why I wrote **possunt (maybe an interference with nautae above?). Obviously it should be potest with Medus as subject. You could also use the simple verb “but he doesn’t get help” without the auxiliary verb posse.
EDIT. I pondered above if one can say tempestate ‘during the tempest’. At least per tempestatem should be correct, so this may be the safest option, most likely also in tempestate, as we have in imbri.
Wow. I will take a couple of days to work under these directions 
I think what I’ll do is take what is provided and find in Lewis and Short examples which focus these directions. But I will persist with Ordberb because there is so much potential in his format.
CAPITULUM DECIMUM SEXTUM
- Quas res (it’s certainly possible, but a simple quid would be more idiomatic) Medus et Lydia (a Lydian woman is generally Lyda in Latin; Lydia is the name of the province) secum ferunt?
Quas res idem atque quid
A country in Asia Minor, Lydia
- you won’t need the subject pronoun “they” in Latin as it’s evident from the verb
Illi (you won’t need the subject pronoun “they” in Latin as it’s evident from the verb) omnes res suas ferunt (remember that there’s also the verb portare, which you may sometimes want to use): pauca vestimenta, paulum cibi nec multum pecuniae.
Fero, ferre, tuli, latum
I. Lit.: “ferri proprie dicimus, quae quis suo corpore bajulat, portari ea, quae quis in jumento secum ducit, agi ea, quae animalia sunt,”
We say that closely borne is that burden which ones’ own body bears, it is carried which is put upon a beast which with himself one leads, it is done by those who living creatures be.
3) Quo Medus cum amica Lydia (same as above) sua ire vult?
Redire cum ea in Graecam vult.
Lyda
I was not sure if the accusative is correct, I looked back in the presentation to answer my question and there is this: Ego in terram eo multo pulchriorem, in patriam meam Graecam.
I go into a much more beautiful land, into my country, Greece.
Videtur mihi recte dicere: redire…in Graecam vult, ergo in eo modo scripsi. But I thought about Graeca first. But then I reviewed the presentation. 
- Cur tristis est Lyda?
Lyd_a_ quoque Graeca est et relinquit amicas Romanas suas, quibus illic amicitiam habuit. Altera patria es (Do you mean to use es instead of est?) mihi inquit (generally the verb inquam comes in the second place [although many {all?} different variations are met])¹ Lyda, ea (“she?” If so, I’d say better to omit it altogether) !non sine lacrimis Roma (direct object with relinquere) relinquit.
Do you mean to use es instead of est?
Vale, Roma! inquit, Non sine lacrimis te relinquo, nam tu altera patria es mihi.
Be well/ so long Rome! Not without tears do I leave you, for you are to me my second country. pp121 My sense was that Lyda refers to Rome in the second person.
5) Neptunus deus est a nautae invocantur (Latin passive works roughly in the same manner as English [e.g. Finnish passive is different]: You wouldn’t say “Neptune *are invoked by the sailors” in English, and the same goes mutatis mutandis with Latin) tempore tempestatis (possibly a simple tempestate; ablatiuus temporis is at the very least used with this word in the sense ‘(point of) time’ [the same obviously goes with tempore], though I’m not 100% sure about the sense ‘during the storm’), dum nubes atrae fulgurque oriuntur.
Neptunus deus est a nautae invocantur (Latin passive works roughly in the same manner as English [e.g. Finnish passive is different]: You wouldn’t say “Neptune *are invoked by the sailors” in English, and the same goes mutatis mutandis with Latin)
I thought to use the third person active plural to attribute to the nominative subject when I wrote: Neptunus deus est a nautae invocantur. But my thinking is unaccustomed and wrong. To attribute to the subject the act of now being called, is it not to say: Neptunus a nautae invocatus est? Because:
Neptunus deus est a nautae invocantur translates as Neptune is a god (a?) the sailors are called… The active plural is transitive to an object, not passive to a subject and therefore exists inflection to show the direction.
incipio cum mutatis mutandis: mūto , āvi, ātum
I. Prop., to move, to move away or from its place, to move to a place (rare): “neque se luna quoquam mutat,”
Neither does the moon move itself anywhere.
mūtātus , ūs, m. 4th decl.
Of which declension is mutatis? I want to call it nominative with the gerund in the possesive case and to think of these two as modifying the clause: “…and the same goes with Latin.”
Mutatis mutandi or (change of the need to change?) regarding the correction of grammatical error in a sentence I wrote in bad Latin which error is demonstrated in its’ English translation. Et nunc devio ab admonitione Bedwere.
Neptunus deus est a nautae invocantur tempore tempestatis… original sentence 
“…tempore tempestatis (possibly a simple tempestate; ablatiuus temporis is at the very least used with this word in the sense ‘(point of) time’…”
Yes, point of time is what I wanted to convey. I tied to use the ablative with the genetive to express ‘(point of) time’.
Surgit tempestas et Neptunus a nautae invocatus est.
6) Cur merces in mare iaciuntur?
In periculo (omit the preposition) navis mergentis, iussit (Who’s the subject? Neptune??) merces iaci et nautae in mare iaciunt illas.
In periculo navis mergentis… Allow me to ask: what is the efficacy of the ablative case? In English I have the habit of the preposition needed.
Periculo navis mergentis, gubernator iussit merces iaci in mare.
7) Medus, os suum aquae plenus (Which is full, the mouth or the Mede? My gut instinct says that suum could be omitted, but I’m not sure about this.) est (to be omitted), conatur invocare Neptunum sed non obtinere (This means rather ‘to hold in one’s possession’, not as much ‘to get, receive’) auxilium posse (Do you mean possunt? Infinitive posse would be understood as dependent on conari!)
consequor, consequi, consecutus
Oh, this is painfull! 
Os suum aquae plenus, Mede conatur invocare Neptunum, eum non consequi potest.
This…uh…smiley, it appears when the numerl 8, a cardinal number, is closed with a right parenthesis.
Lydia, perterritus est (The same as above: perterritus is in apposition to Lyd_a. Also, what’s the gender of Lyda?)
“Apposition: a noun may be used to explain another noun; both nouns have the same case and the same syntactical relationship to the rest of the sentence.”
Collins, J. F. (1985). A primer of ecclesiastical Latin. Washington, D.C.: Catholic University of America Press. pp 114
Thank you, that is why I am here, to put my hands on definitions such as apposition, for “Lyda perterrita est” is redundant while “Lyda perterrita” is not. Then nouns in apposition will be in which case is needed for good sense.
9) invocat Dominun Christum ut mare tranquillum sit (This is obviously from esse; you may want to consider using the verb fieri)
Fio, fieri, factus sum ‘be made. be done, become, happen, be’
Collins, J. F. (1985). A primer of ecclesiastical Latin. Washington, D.C.: Catholic University of America Press. pp 303
It would not achieve the task of laying my hands to Latin if I were to fail to consider this verb. While Bedwere admonishes simplicity, Timothee drives me to search. This simple verb is the threshold of all the depth of philosophy upon which was founded the distant strength of the West: within several lines and my untrained mind I am impotent.
10) navis a mari (in mari) non mergitur.
Navis mari non mergitur._
Marcus a magistro non laudatur, sed reprehendetur. Marcus inquit: Cur ego semper reprehendor, numquam laudor? Titus et Sextus semper laudantur, numquam reprehendentur. Magister: Tu non laudaris, sed reprehenderis, quia prave respondes. Marcus: Sed ego semper interrogor! Sextus: Tu non semper interrogaris; nos saepe interrogamur nec prave respondemus: itaque a magistro laudamur, non reprehendemur. Marcus: At facile est id quod vos interrogatis: itaque recte respondetis ac laudamini! Titus: Nos magistrum veremur. Nonne tu eum vereris? Marcus: Ego magistrum non vereor. Cur vos eum veremini?
You probably forgot this one.
You probably forgot this one.…Bedwere
Marcus: At facile est id quod vos interrogatis
Marcus: But that which all/both of you ask is easy…if “quod” is a relative pronoun?
But each of them is not asking the questions, each of them is being asked questions by Diordorus.
I had used the second person passive plural but then thought it was a mistake because it seemed to me that “quod” would be a direct object. But when previously I had used “laudamini” I did not understand that Marcus was referring to an action done by Diodorus which was recieved by Sextus and Titus, these having been interrogated by Diodorus. It seems the passive indicative is used with the ablative of an agent to show by whom a subject nominative is recipient of action. Not having seen an ablative in: At facile est id quod vos________, I thought the verb must be transitive to “quod”. However, there is this: Marcus inquit: Cur ego semper reprehendor, numquam laudor?, in which no ablative is written, in which the subject is put/described as passive while the agent is not named. So I did not forget but I was guessing: At facile est id quod vos interrogamini.
CAPITULUM DECIMUM SEPTIMUM
Discipulus est puer qui discit. Vir qui pueros discit magister est. Magister est vir doctus qui multas res scit quas pueri discunt. Sextus nec stultus nec piger sed industrius atque prudens est. Magister interrogat, discipulus qui respondere potest manum tollit. Non permittit respondere antequam magister interrogat. Magister: Dic numeros a decem usque ad centum. Quisque puer manum tollit, primum Sextus, deinde Titus, postremo Marcus. Sextus numeros cardinales dicit: decem (X), undecim (XI), duodecim (XII), tredecim (XIII), quattuordecim (XIV), quindecim (V), sedecim (XVI), septendecim (VII), duodeviginti (XVIII), undeviginti (XIX), viginti (XX), triginta (XXX), quadraginta (XL), quinquaginta (L), sexaginta (LX), septuaginta (LXX), octoginta (LXXX), nonaginta (XC), centum (C). Sextus bonus discipulus est, qui semper recte respondet; itaque magister eum laudat. Marcus, qui semper prave respondet, a magistro reprehendetur: Non recte respondes, Marce! Cur non recte antequam respondes? Marcus: Cur Titum non interrogas?(!!) Is non tam frequneter interrogatur quam ego. Magister: Iam eum interrogo: quot sunt XXI et LXVIII (viginti unum et duodeseptuginta)? Titus: LXXXVII? an LXXXVIII?

Do you understand this now? They’re not compatible: patria Graeca (lit. ‘Greek fatherland’) but Graecia ‘Greece’. Graecus is adjective but Graecia substantive.
You still have some kind of mix-up. Revise your grammar!
Neptunus invocatur ‘Neptune is called’
Nautae invocantur ‘The sailors are called’
Neptunus a nautis invocatur ‘Neptune is called by the sailors’
Neptunus invocat ‘Neptune calls’
Nautas invocat ‘He calls the sailors’
Neptunum invocant ‘They call Neptune’
Nautae Neptunum invocant ‘The sailors call Neptune’
etc.
Do you see how these sentences differ?
Mutatis mutandis is an ablative absolute that means ‘when the things that need to be changed have been changed’, i.e. ‘when the necessary changes have been made’. In expressions like this Latin can be quite compact.
Where did the word “Mede” come from?? From the English?? You’ll need to be attentive when writing Latin. But this is still wrong. I should like you to see yourself where you went wrong, so as you may learn better. I reiterate my question: which is full, the Mede or the mouth? If you answer “the mouth”, then which is the word’s gender in Latin? Which attributes does it have? They need to be in the same gender, as well. And this whole construction you’ll probably want to write as an ablative absolute (I failed to mention this earlier, sorry). Some other constructions, too, might be possible. Before the last clause you’ll want to have some conjunction, probably sed.
As I said in my first comments, I think “Navis in mari non mergitur” may be the best formation.
Remember to write with utmost care.
I don’t know Ørdberg and cannot really comment on it. I just remark on Latin the best I can. My suggestions are obviously open to critique.

The preposition “in” takes the ablative when expressed is a place in which something happens"
My confusion is here constituted of two things, at least: Ignorance of correct spelling with an inadvertent disregard for rules of syntax necessarily linked to it and my act, itself, of emerging out of ignorance.

- I should like you to see yourself where you went wrong.
One thinking intuitively in the ablative absolute, he failed to understand the form of its’ Latin construction. Attempting to write what he did not understand, he used a third declension nominative next to a reflexive pronoun. He put the ablative of a noun at the beginning of a clause, thinking that that clause would be independent.
The ablative absolute most often consists of a noun+ a perfect passive participle in the ablative case. As a subordinate construction, it occurs only as an addition to an independent clause (i.e., a complete sentence). But as its name “absolute” implies, it is not directly connected to either the subject or the object of the independent clause [and] it gives a circumstance which modifies the meaning of the sentence"

Os suum aquae plenus, Mede conatur invocare Neptunum, [deest] eum non consequi potest.
Os suum aquae plenus…
The preceding arrangement of words consists of two pairs. The first pair puts a nominative substantive with a reflexive pronoun. “Os suum” is a consistent arrangement since the noun with its adjective agree in case, number, and gender. The second pair of words have no consistency because “aquae” may be nominative plural, dative singular, or genitive singular of the first declension feminine and it is not possible for “plenus”, the adjective in the second declension masculine and nominative case, to attribute to “aquae”. More to it, I had intended to use “plenus” to attriute to “os” and neither is this possible for absence of agreement.
Mede conatur invocare Neptunum
One strives by the Mede to invoke Neptune… An independent clause I suppose to have been modified by what I erroneously intuited to be a phrase of the ablative absolute previously arranged as gibberish. Beside that, the Mede is a slave, not a priest!
How about: “Medus Neptunum conatur invocare.”?

Now you have inexplicably changed the construction of aqua! It’s not wrong by any means, but it may be better to stick here to the genitive of classical Latin as you had before. (Of course it’s Aue Maria, gratia plena.) It’s still not clear to me if you got the construction os plenum (instead of plenus), which will now be in ablative. It may be clear already without eius.
Why not arrange the sentence for example Medus conatur Neptunum invocare sed ore aquae pleno non potest? I don’t know, but it might produce a little more dramatic effect…

It doesn’t work because it’s not clear what is made: a responce or temerity. In the arrangement of words I made, there are two nouns in the accusative case and it seems, here anyway, that a transitive cannot take two objects at once. Also, “facio” is not well put to work in attempting to convey that one gives a response.
