Latinum has created a space where you can have conversational practice in Latin.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
The rules for the <strong>Whatsapp Locutoria</strong> will be the same rules as drawn up by the late <a href="https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/northjersey/obituary.aspx?n=john-doublier&pid=161514833" rel="nofollow noopener" style="background-color: transparent; color: #e64f39; cursor: pointer;" target="_blank"><u>John Doublier</u></a> z'l and myself for the Schola Latin chatrooms ( now closed down) in 2008:</div>

1. <strong>Latin and Greek only.</strong></div>

2. <strong>Focus on communication</strong>; focus on the message, not the grammar.</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px; white-space: pre-line;">

<li><strong>Ergo scribite tantummodo Latine.</strong></li>

I set up the new <strong>Latin Whatsapp Chatroom</strong> on the 17th November 2019, and have been gratified to see it grow very quickly. A secondary overflow chatroom was needed, as after two days, subscriptions were approaching the 257 person limit. If the first chatroom is full, please join the second. </div>

Seeing people chatting freely in Latin will inspire you to progress in your studies, as you will see before your eyes that <strong>Latin is not a dead language, but is still the living language of scholars </strong>that it has been since the fall of Rome.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
<strong> WHY NO CORRECTING?</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
Why the rule about no correcting?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
Modern language theory and evidence based research tells us that over correcting, even correcting at all, is usually counter productive in the early stages of attempting to communicate in a new language.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
As long as you are actively studying the language as you go, errors will eventually resolve themselves. Fluency is achieved through action, through exposure to the language, and through struggling with using it.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
If a learner is unsure, to the degree that they are scared to communicate at all, then they will think twice before even attempting to communicate.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
<strong>You have to just wade in and take risks.</strong> No risk taking, no learning.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
So, unless a user specifically asks for help, no-one is allowed to comment on another user's grammar or Latinity. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
In reality, in the give and take of the real-time chatroom, this rule is relaxed somewhat.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
<strong>HOW TO CORRECT SOMEONE POLITELY</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 10px !important; margin-top: 10px !important; white-space: pre-line;">
<em> A polite way to correct someone is to re-phrase what they said, correctly, as part of your reply, without explicitly saying you are making a correction.</em></div>

The answer lies behind your search box on google books. Type in 'haec est" and a torrent of literature will pour forth to assault you. The cultural production of two thousand years, written in Latin, unread, unknown, there for the picking and reading.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">What do we have? Novels - both Roman remains, and renaissance fiction - science fiction even! Poetry - more than you could imagine. Dialogues. Plays. Stories and Fables, Philosophy, Science, Mathematics.....the vast bulk of the intellectual production of Europe, from Roman times, until the mid 1700's, was written in Latin. The most renowned poets in England, wrote in Latin.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;"> Writing in Latin did not stop with the Romans. Latin was used for commerce, business and pleasure as a trans-national language until the mid 1700's. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Due to an ever shrinking pool of readers, this material is largely unknown, a vast terra incognita.

Never before in history, has anyone had access to the breadth and depth of Latin literature, that we have access to now, at the click of a mouse. The volume of material on Google increases by the day. Sitting at your computer, or in front of your phone, you have access to more Latin literature than the most fortunate and well endowed scholar in the renaissance.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">We see some signs of adjustment to this changed state of affairs in the Latin teaching profession - with textbooks such as "Latin for the New Millenium" - but old habits and old ideas persist. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Old methods of teaching, that will not equip students to delve into this world, persist. There are no English translations of these texts. To read this material, you need fluency - fluency to peruse quickly, and find the gold nuggets in the dross. Fluency to simply cover ground.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">For a Classicist to ignore (or be ignorant of) works written in Neo-Latin that discuss the poetics of Virgil, for instance, while happily reading modern critical texts in Italian or German, is a reality forced on them by the academic reality they inhabit. Most professional Latinists spend more time in their native language, writing research papers, than they do engaging with Latin itself.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">As a result, their fluency never reaches a very high level, and for most, reading speeds when engaging with unfamiliar texts remain slow. This is one reason why those with the highest levels of fluency are frequently the self-taught, and those who operate outside the strictures of academia. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Some claim they are only interested in reading 'Classical Latin', but then, they cut themselves off from the 2000 years of literary criticism and commenting on Latin texts, written in Latin. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">The vast bulk of scholarship on Latin original texts, is only available in Latin.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Professors and teachers of Latin have not yet adjusted to the paradigm shift that must necessarily take place. The Latinum Latin Language course was created, in part to address this particular challenge, and also to make Latin language study available across the globe.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Many of these critical texts are unknown, and have sat on bookshelves, in vast repositories, unopened for centuries. Even their titles are often unrecorded in the literature, let alone discussion of their contents.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Now, more than ever, Latin teachers need to focus on fluency and an ability to read with fluidity - to give our students the tools to enter this sacrum sacrorum loaded with the wisdom of millenia. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Teachers need to expose their students this vast depository, to demonstrate the usefulness of having a skill in reading this language.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">If we do not transmit our wonder and amazement at this turn of events - then we will have failed to grasp an opportunity that no generation has ever had before.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">The momentousness of this change is such, that it can be compared to the shift that took place in the world of letters after the invention of printing - leading to the wide dissemination of Classical texts, and to a burst of improved standards of Latin literacy. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Once the preserve of a few monks in cloisters, anyone could now own Cicero, Vergil, and use these texts to improve their Latin. The result, the Neo-Latin Renaissance, that really only took off after the invention of printing.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">Now, we face another paradigm shift - for us, as readers of Latin, we were more akin to the monks, with access to only a few valued tomes - the vast production of the renaissance was unavailable to us, even to the specialist - now, the floodgates have opened.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;">How will we respond? </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-line;" /><img data-media-id="43909050" src="https://c10.patreonusercontent.com/3/eyJwIjoxfQ%3D%3D/patreon-media/p/post/30627781/735197cff6564c109bca0214cf300e7e/1.jpg?token-time=1571875200&token-hash=kaf2Rql4lqMmviRfsexQBKVDCL5nTcI5AgGIumQKtbs%3D" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #241e12; font-family: aktiv-grotesk, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; max-width: 100%; white-space: pre-line;" /></div>
