Amo Latinum.

Yeah, sadly that's about all I can say now, other than practice sentences, like: Fortuna adversa firum magnae sapientiae non terret. Or. Magistri parvis pueris crustula et dona saepe dant.
Translations: Bad luck (adverse fortune) does not terrify a man of great wisdom. The schoolteacher gives little cookies and gifts to the small boys

Ha! I just started latin today. So all I know at this point is:

laudo
laudas
laudat
laudamus
laudatus
laudant

"lauda" meaning "praise." I can conjugate the word praise.

Heh, nice. Forgot you started later. I think that was the first one we learned too. Isn't it awesome though?

RUSSIAN HISTORY!? Or is he Russian, and teaching history? That's so awesome. I love Russians.

He specializes in Russian history, but the class I'm taking is more general: Western Civilizations and the Rise of the Modern State.
