No. You have two nominative nouns. In addition, "veris" (not "veres", which is not a Latin word) means "spring" (as in "the rites of...").

Your final grade is 33%. F.  See your student advisor in the morning to register for Latin for DUmmies 101.

Your first assignment is Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Have a 1.000 word book report on my desk by next Monday.

Didn't realize that I spelled it wrong, sorry. I meant Vis Vires.

I thought that you were talking about Animus, which has a few different meanings.

The two nominative nouns cost you points as well.

Veris is just the plurality.. and it sounds cooler together. I did it right in my name, though. (:

There's is nothing more grotesque on the planet than seeing some young metrosexual punk faggot wannabe in BVD's.

With boobiez.

That's just plain offensive.

But there won't be any bitchslap issued, as the point had to be made.   :lmao:   :rotf:

Latin is one of the most beautiful, expressive, yet precise languages on Earth, and has been for 2,500 years. Some of the world's most influential books were written in Latin. It is the language of the law and of medicine.

And you single-handedly assassinated it in the span of a morning.

Why in the hell do you think we're hostile?

Hi Cholley, We're missing you on the other thread.  You had lots of very good responses.  Actually I find my obesity to be the biggest problem I face.

(This is a new paragraph.) Could you please explain the differences between analog and digital electrical transmission.

analog electrical transmission: When you can cut a stick from any log to beat the hamsters on the treadmill driving the generator.

digital electrical transmission: When the hamsters are so well trained that all you have to do is thump their ears with any digit on your hand to make them use the treadmill.

Power to the DUmmie renewable green energy system.

Worse than a waste of money is a waste of time.  So how about coming back over here and responding to some questions?  We're waiting: http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,75626.0.html

Well, Chumley, some of the first lessons you'd learn would be sentence structure, capitalization,  and punctuation.

Much like the English classes you apparently slept through.
