...communitatem de linguā latinā habemus? Nesciebam! /me subscribit

Feel free to cross-post this stuff in !linguistics@mander.xyz by the way, it's right into the comm's alley.

Welcome! I didn't realize there were this many Latin hobbyists on Lemmy, either :)

I'll check out !linguistics@mander.xyz too, thanks!

I've studied it in my grad. Nowadays I'm a bit rusted in the language, so doing weird shit like translating Pulp Fiction excerpts into it, just to avoid the brain rot. (Or to deepen it.)

We don't have Latin education here. i'm purely a hobbyist at linguistics and language learning, so I'm still a little dull at it.

I started the Latin comm since the .world one is dead, and after only a day it managed to get almost 70 subscribers (the first 5 minutes I created it, there were 35 subscribers immediately O_O), but I'm mainly the active one there. In a few days hopefully some of the lurkers will post, too.

I didn't notice you moderate linguistics by the way, I'll be sure to drop some posts about Semitic languages and such later on :)

Please do it! I'd bet that a lot of members would love it. (I do, at least.)
