  • Hey, I think it would be a great idea to have a subforum within this site specifically catered to languages such as Koine Greek and Latin (Classical and Ecclesiastical). Not only just to post works (such as in the Library section) but to discuss these works to decipher, translate, etc.

    Just a thought.

  • Also, it would not be limited to Latin and Greek. Syriac, Ancient Egyptian, Spanish, German, French, Italian, etc. would all be more than appreciated.

  • There are subforums for discussion in Spanish and Portuguese languages in the SSPX portion of this forum.

  • Hey poche! Sorry, I didn't catch your post until now!

    I did see that there are subforums for Spanish and Portuguese. Which kind of gave me the idea that we could extend that to Latin, Greek, etc.

  • A sub-forum for classical and/or liturgical languages would be an excellent idea.  There are other forums specifically for this purpose, but I am uncertain if any of them are exclusively Catholic.

    Either way, it's a great idea.
    We conclude logically that religion can give an efficacious and truly realistic answer to the great modern problems only if it is a religion that is profoundly lived, not simply a superficial and cheap religion made up of some vocal prayers and some ceremonies...

  • Thanks Centroamerica!

    Yes, I took a course in Latin last year (3 years in 1 summer) and that was a lot of information to keep remembering up until now. I use it frequently but not frequently enough, and not in enough volume either. Plus, I've always wanted to learn Greek.
