Traianus Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 (edited) Latin is definitively a non-dead language. It's funny the way they put in brackets how to pronounce the phrases, I read it and sounded really strange Edited September 8, 2007 by Traianus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docoflove1974 Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 That's an attempt at phonetic representation...it's phonetic representation for American speakers, I guess. True linguistic phonetic representation is different. Honestly, it probably helps some people pronounce them, as they have been pronouncing them poorly all along!
