    Hey, I've been looking through this forum for a Latin related thread, but couldn't find any, so here's one :). Anyone doing Latin, post any notes or any predictions you want to make here :D.

    Here's something I think might come up

    Personalities(history)
    Sulla/ either of the Gracchi/ Scipio Africanus Major

    Poems
    Cadmus, last Polyphemus poem, Tarquin, Hermione

    I applaud you EvM for doing Latin but I highly doubt someone else here is doing it.

    Good luck tomorrow! :)

    Yeah i think i did pretty well, although i had no idea what the cursus honorum was-we never did it:(. Apart from that though it was fine. I think it was a harder paper than usual though. And actually I know another guy on boards that does Latin:cool:. He's in my class.:eek:

    Ah good :). Yeah i knew what it was, but I couldn't remember it exactly :P. I was just knda waffling on about all the jobs you need to hold like an aedile :D. But my funeral speech was hillarious.. had loads of facts and stuff, but I kept writing cheesy lines like "He only wanted what was best for the Roman people..Is that so wrong?!?!" hehehe. Yeah some parts were trickier- te civilisation in particular. But some parts like that passage about Tarquin were fine :).

    :O cool ha, Latiners unite:cool: :P
