I think I will take up Latin, because this is cool.

From here:

silentium: silence, stillness, quiet, repose, obscurity.
silentium: (religion) faultlessness, perfection.

Lingua Latina saltat!

And in English, that might be...?

(Latin language what?)

"Latin rocks".. :-)

I loved Latin. I loved unseens, declensions, conjugations, comparisons and more unseens. I completed a two-hour final exam in about 20 minutes, because I loved Latin. My professor was somewhat surprised.

Alas. I have not studied it in mumble-ty years. However, I do recall this one: Si hoc adfixum in obice legere potes, et liberaliter educatus et nimis propinquus ades.

*puzzles*

'If this affects towards offer (something) power, and honourably (something education?) and excessively close (something)'

No, that's not even close to a translation, is it?

Still, I don't even have a grammar primer. I should probably remedy that, shouldn't I?

You're on the right track. ;-) "If this (bumper sticker) you can read, you are well educated and much too close."

See? Lingua Latina saltat!
