In architecture, an atrium (pl.: atria or atriums) is a large open-air or skylight-covered space surrounded by a building. Atria were a common feature in Ancient Roman dwellings, providing light and ventilation to the interior.

@Chip_Unicorn "Papum" doesn't exist in #LatinLanguage. "We have a potato!" is translated as "Habemus patatam!"

Learning Latin again - doing so while learning about research based ideas in language acquisition and outside an arbitrary (high pressure) classroom setting is helping me relax and enjoy the process

Latest on the Grammaticus blog❗️

An analysis of Catullus 46 - a delightful 1st century BC Latin poem about the arrival of spring and the excitement of travel.

If your Latin is a bit rusty or you happen to be a Latin learner, below the poem you’ll find a detailed, verse-by-verse word analysis, along with an English translation.

At the very end of the post there are a few links to additional resources on Catullus, and the context of this particular poem.

Just out of curiosity, is there any Mastodon server where Latin is the main language of communication? Thank you.

Per curiositatem modo, ecqui servus Mastodontis est in quo Latina lingua praecipua commercii est? Gratias vobis ago.

I suggested that the decline in Gaulish writing in the 1st c CE cannot necessarily be seen as a decline in language vibrancy, comparing the status of other nonliterate indigenous languages in the Roman empire.

But I left the question open on what the ‘psychological shift’ may have been for those literate Gaulish speakers who stopped seeing a purpose in writing the language during the early Roman principate.

Anyone here have any suggestions?

Despite what I post on this platform, my life is not all Basset Hounds and gardening. (Well, the Basset Hound does often manage to make my life entirely about him.)

I still occasionally carry out some academic research, and I spoke yesterday to the Changelings linguistics group here at Ohio State on the subject of ‘Gaulish literacy’.

In looking at the decline in surviving writing in Gaulish during the 1st c CE, I worked from Roman historian Ramsay MacMullen’s famous 1982 essay on ‘The epigraphic habit in the Roman empire’, where Ramsay attempted to explain the decline in Latin epigraphy from the mid 3rd c CE as being connected to ‘some very broad psychological shift’.

*Updated.*
Hello. I joined Friendica in October of 2024, after Facebook closed their Basic Mobile site (not app). I live in New Jersey and am forty-one years old. Some of my interests include studying dandyism, nineteenth-century grammar, Upper Received Pronunciation, British history, and the Regency. I like coffee, tea, wine, nasal snuff, cooking, hot baths, reading British literature, watching nature and historical documentaries, gardening, hot weather, and playing cards and dice. I also love cats. In classical music, I enjoy Baroque through a bit of early Romantic, while in popular, I usually prefer 1950's through 1970's. I love theatre (especially English and Viennese operettas, Edwardian musical comedies), and some Regency/Georgian plays. I prefer antique menswear and accessories. It's my dream to either buy a genuine Edwardian suit or have one commissioned. I love wit, wordplay, and dry humour without vulgarity. My parents are lesbians, and I am a huge gay rights supporter, but I stop short of using singular they and promoting the idea of more than two sexes, though you can certainly lean more towards one while being the other (as I do being a masculine woman), or change from one to the other via hormones, surgery etc. I have been totally blind since I was two months old, due to Retinopathy of Prematurity.

I am happily childfree and am not religious. I hardly ever write about politics. I tend to get along better with people older than I, but I will accept friends twenty-one and over. I have no understanding of chronic illness, anxiety, depression, loneliness, etc. I enjoy hearing about cats, cooking or gardening adventures, antiques, and interesting life stories.

This is my journal. Anyone can read or comment, whether or not he is a member.
