Translation help

bonusvir wrote in latin May 28, 2013 22:56

salvete omnes, here in Canada we have this incredibly ridiculous saying that is driving me nuts. So I was wondering what the Latin translation would be. The phrase is " it is what it is" most people in the office think I am odd so I thought why not use the same phrase in Latin. My translation would be EST QUID EST, any thougths?

Hello. Just wondering: two logical fallacies commonly go by their Latin names, post hoc ergo propter hoc and cum hoc ergo propter hoc. If I wanted, in Latin, to correct someone who committed these fallacies, what would I say? I was thinking that I'd just replace "ergo" with "non" or maybe "sed non"; does that seem right?

ablative of association

I'm trying to compile a fairly comprehensive list of the uses of the ablative, because I like lists and I like learning from lists, and I ran into this thing--the ablative of association. Thing is, it's not in Wheelock's, nor in the other textbook that I'm referring to (D'Ooge); it only shows up, as far as I can Google, in Bennett's New Latin ( Read more... )
