Gregory HaysWondering how much it would cost to have "'Vero' means 'but,' not 'truly'" tattooed tastefully on all my students' foreheads, is this something I could apply to the Dean's office for a small grant to cover
empliau@aristofontes Then they couldn't see it. Unless it was tattooed backwards, and they could see it in the mirror.
@empliau This is why it has to be on everyone's forehead, so they can see it on each other.
@aristofontes 'Aequam memento rebus in arduis servare mentem,' said Mr. Hargrave in the adjacent room, 'does not mean, Remember to keep a month's water for the hard roads "
The Lichtenbergian@aristofontes Surely if even I, whose Spanish is almost nihil and whose Latin is 50+ years old, can recognize what I assume is the cognate 'pero,' then it should be not a problem for younger, more multicultural minds.
