I accidentally violated the rules by posting in another forum without putting an introductory thread here… ^^;
I don’t really have a lot to say about myself, though, except I love discovering the origins of words, and I love Martial. I don’t know enough Latin to just read Martial yet, but what I can read of him is quite funny; I’d say he was an ancient Groucho Marx or Winston Churchill when it comes to delivering a good insult. I think more people would enjoy Latin if they knew about him.
Anybody who’s read any of Martial’s epigrams probably knows that my signature comes from him.
In addition to Latin, I study Spanish, Italian, and Japanese – I’m pretty good at Spanish (not the spoken language yet, though) and still a beginner at the others. I’d study Greek, too, but my workload is crazy enough as it is, y’know? ![]()
