Daily reminder that Classical Greek is vastly superior to Classical Latin.

Too edgelord for me senpai.
I've found its actually a bit difficult to find spoken examples of real classical Latin since almost everyone learns the medieval version.
>>1409336
I found this one when I looked.

But I can't corroborate it, because I have no clue about Classical latin phonology.

All you really need to know to pronounce words mostly right is that v's are like w's, ae's are like "I", c's and g's are always hard. I'm oversimplifying a bit, but that's really all you need to avoid the basic medieval mistakes. i.e vini vidi vici is pronounced wini widi wiki, caesar is pronounced kaisar (I always found it funny that the fucking germans of all people were the closest to the roman way of saying that)

seems legit. I don't know many of the more minute things he mentioned, but it sounds right from what I know of ancient greek and modern italian.
though, I've definitely read in some book somewhere that a double vowel like "tuum" should be "tu'um", but I may be mistaken

The Latin perfect is literally the Greek aorist. Come on, son.

Depends. The -um ending was hardly pronounced at all. 'Bellum' would simply be 'bell', or 'bracchium' 'bracchi'.
Double consonants are definitely pronounced separately. As, 'bellum', 'bel-lum'.
>>1409831
All that demonstrates is that you don't even aorist. Greek has a perfect as well, but it's distinct from the Aorist. Perfect just indicates that an action was taken and completed in the past. Aorist is, on the surface, the same, but with the connotation that said action would never be done again, like saying goodbye to a dying person.
...I guess it's kind of neat conceptually, I just got really annoyed when learning it because all of the explanations are shit.

Really? Wouldn't that create confusion between, say, vir and virum? Since um is such a common accusative ending and many words just have it tacked on to their nominative, it doesn't seem like something that would be efficient to need to deduce through context.
>>1409878
No, he's saying the Latin perfect is etymologically the same as the Greek aorist, which is true for the s-perfects.
>>1409313
It is. Latin is roach language that's similar in origin to turk speak.
>>1409878
I can see your point regarding the aorist. I haven't met any problems with aspect in Latin. Yet.
On um, I should clarify. It wasn't completely disappeared, it was reduced to a nasalisation of the preceding vowel, much like modern Spanish or Portuguese.
So,
> Hispanus = his 'paa nus
> Hispanum = his 'paa ñ
>>1409943
In what way are Italic tribes any more related to Turkic nomads than hellenic peoples are? Latin is almost as hellenic as it is Italic anyway so I'm really not sure what your point is.
>>1409975
Hispanum = /hisp'a:nû/
û being nasal u.

Actually /is'panû/

That's why it's easy to speak classic Latin language for Russians.
