In fact, it is said rebuZnar but I think that Z will be impossible to pronounce with your english-used-to-mouths ;)

It would be something similar to "rebuuthhnar".

meh english is overtly conplex

It is, basically because it's a confused hybrid of Celtic, Latin and old Teutonic languages, with an added flavour of French, and various other European languages.

Latin is really complex as well.

Not nearly as complex as English.

But really confusing for english speaking people... I like it though, very practical.

Latin isn't [i]that[/i] practical in today's world, in my opinion...

I feel sad today, dunno why i just do, just one of thoses days i guess. :-/

I couldn't do it, I'm no linguist. I got acceptable grades in it, then dropped it. Vocab tests and such I could do because of the english derivatives, but verbs and stuff... I've never been able to learn tables of things. For the most part I'd just write down the stem and add a random latin-y ending, like -us

^^ How much do you know?


EDIT: To Foxyman.

In Latin? Not much. I dropped it about 4 years ago, and only did it for 2 years.

I remember a couple of basic sentences, 'Cave canem', 'Sub arbore sedet puella Romana, nomine Flavia', 'magister mundi sum' and 'Ecce, mama!' - though I've probably got them wrong, and the last one is a little... unorthodox.

Edit - Screw your edit!

I've taken Latin since first grade. I would much rather learn Spanish and such.

You'd own me in it.... not even a semster here.

See, my problem is that I can't use it and thus it's harder to keep up with, you know? I find that English helps me with Latin more than vice versa. :p

Hey all.

Hey Scorp.

Hey Scorp, what's up?

Latin is gramatically much more complex than english.

English is pretty simple compared to latin languages such as spanish, french...

Spanish is one of the most complex languages in the world (as linguists say). Id like to learn japanese or chinese, my maths teacher tryed to lteach me a little but it was really hard. I studied french for some years, it was quite complex, similar to spanish, but I really hate that language for some reason.

I love english because you can make things simpler and shorter. It easy to learn and speak and it allows you to say lots of things with just a few words.

But spanish is just The language in terms of writing, you know, spanish literature was the most famouis during the whole period from X to XX.

P.D. A good latin sentence: "Carpe Diem" ;

or "Ilea Jacta Est" (or something similar)... or "vini vidi vinci"... lol :lol:

I knod some latin cause I love philosophy.

A thing that makes Japanese hard is the amount of alphabets. You have Hiragana [i]and[/i] Katakana, not to mention the monosyllabic system they use for more advanced pieces of writing.
