Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata Cap.14 Novus Dies

The LLPSI series can also be purchased through regional distributors Vivarium Novum, Focus/Hackett Publishing, Cultura Clásica, Addisco, & NewSouth Books. The video does *not* include the important and necessary exercises, vocabulary lists, indices, or grammatical explanations (all of which are critical to make any use of the text) found in the complete book Familia Romana, which is by far the best instrument ever designed to teach the Latin language. The main purpose of this recording is to help my students understand correct pronunciation of Latin and is intended for educational use only. The secondary purpose is to encourage others to purchase the books of the Lingua Latina series.

Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata series playlist:

This recording is unique in that it preserves all long and short vowels and syllables, as well as the correct scansion and rhythm of the phrase, exactly as encountered in Ancient Roman poetry. It represents one of the most accurate interpretations of the pronunciation of Classical Latin (roughly 100 B.C. to 100 A.D.).

When using these videos, pause after each phrase, and repeat after me. Try to emulate what I do as exactly as possible: clearly pronounce the long and short vowels, the long and short syllables, and follow the rhythm and the melody of the phrase just like music. Note the elision or mixing of vowels between words, a vital part of the pronunciation of Latin and all the Romance languages. The result will be an exceedingly natural pronunciation that will permit you to understand intuitively the scansion of Latin poetry, and to speak Latin with native-style fluency.

I come for the Latin but I stay for the animal sounds.

[anna-katehowell]

The rooster noises scared the bejeezus out of my cats, and I am still laughing five minutes later...

[Columbator]

Compared to the previous chapter, this one is a real pleasure to study. I understood a big part of it at first listen, without having read it first.

[chadgeri]

Am I the only one who finds hilarious the clear passive aggression of Davus towards Marcus?!

[empyrionin]

It's absolutely incredible how comprehensible this is (high 90% to me as a speaker) compared to other latin texts where comprehensibility is in the 30-40%...

[VoidLantadd]

Strangely, I find myself preferring this pronunciation to the new videos. I do think the new ones sound much more natural and more like a real native speaker might sound (and the audio quality is better), but something about the exaggerated way every aspect of pronunciation is very clearly observed in this version just agrees with my brain as a learner.

I suppose it's a balance to walk, and you definitely have a good balance in the new videos, but I think I was kind of wanting something more over the top to hear and then learn to tone down, if that makes sense.

[veramarsova]

Does anyone else find it suspicious that they had the same word for a rooster and a Gaul?.. xD

Se viene a la mente el español, italiano, francés y portugués en un solo contexto

Seu trabalho aqui na internet é incrível!

[chadgeri]

I've been studying Latin for years now, and I just now discovered that I've been pronouncing "neuter" incorrectly this entire time!

[bee-yqwb]

Is this a mistake that I've noticed in the beginning of the chapter where it says Quintus dormire non potest, quod et caput et pes ei *dolet* ?

Why is dolet third person singular? Shouldn't it be third person plural?

[danielsierra]

Congratulations. What an effort is to pronounce long and short vocals...

Jam vidī tuam pelliculam dē discendō sermōnem Graecum, et intellegō Mēdum paedagōgum esse 🙂

[paolacociu]

In Romaniā gallī canent 'Cucurigu!'

[OM-jodv]

I don't fully understand the sentences "Marcus fenestra aperta dormit" and "Is (Quintus?) fenestra clausa dormit" I understand it to mean that Marcus's window is open and Quintus's is closed but what does dormit add to this? That both are asleep with the window open/closed or that the window is not rattling or something? Both sentences are on page 103. And does "Is" in the second sentence refer to Quintus? If so, I thought "is" would be" eius" here because orberg is referring to a person and not a thing. Thanks for your time on this one.

[alwaysdreaming]

Hey, thank you so much for this series!
I've got a question, do you actually speak with this native-like pronunciation? Do you use elisions, nasal sounds etc.? And do you know any other people who speak like that?
I'm asking because I think listening is the best way to learn pronunciation so I need to listen to people speaking like you in this series

[jakubolszewski]

Nón intellegó hoc: Is fenestrá clausá dormit; cúr is? Aaaa, nunc intellegó hahae. Stultus sum hahae. Hmm, sed hic nón est melior híc? Nón is fenestrá… sed hic fenestrá…? Hahae.

[marcelmontfranc]

I noticed on the word "manūs" or "potest", you seem to put the stress on the second syllable, like "maNŪS" and "potEST", but isn't the emphasis on the first syllable, as "MAnūs" and "POtest" ?

Stēlla bona semper in viā tuā sit.

[eduardocarvalho]

Magister, ego anglice non scio, itaque latine conor scribere.

Quomodo exercitia latina facio ut bene discere?
Scribo? Audio? Exercitios libri facio?

[petermelian]

Quia hispanus natus sum lingua Latina difficilis valde non est.
