reasons why it’s awkward when a non-latinist sits in on your latin classroom

thoodleoo:

• half of the vocabulary is about dying or killing
• they always come in on the day you’re discussing catullus
• zeus
• “alright, get to killing each other” (we were playing gladiator, which is basically d&d with grammar)
• any discussion of roman culture inevitably devolves into talking about blood, gluttony, or adultery
• “we don’t wear pants in this classroom, that’s what barbarians do”
• constant threats to invade the french classroom
