Things That Were Said in A Single AP Latin 4 Class
The Doctor:
“Pious Aeneas can really rage.”
“Because that’s wrong. That’s why.”
“It says mo-moliqu-moliriquarcet.”
“This is wonderful. Only half the class is paying attention, but the other half is quiet enough that the first half can actually hear me.”
(It is important that you know there was a bowl of thumbtacks on his desk from another teacher that uses this classroom, and he kept reaching for handfuls of them every now and then only to put them all back)
Us : “Doctor, why?”
The Doctor: “I keep thinking it’s a candy bowl.”
*fifteen minutes later, as the Doctor reaches for the bowl again*
Us: *yelling* “Doctor, NO!”
The Doctor:
“I like the danger”
AP Latin 4 Shenannies
Me: “If your son is going there, then the Certamen team might stand a chance!!!”
The Doctor: “Will it stop me from smack talking their Latin? No!”
The Doctor: “They’re all ill-infarmed. They’re like oxen!”
A Student: “We should do a German class.”
The Doctor: “If we add more language classes that will take away some of my potential Latin students.”
