"Just Another Day" is a song Cuban singer-songwriter #JonSecada recorded for his debut studio album, Jon Secada (1992). Secada and Miguel Morejon wrote the song, and #SBKRecords released it as the album's #leadSingle in March 1992. The subject of this #pop-#soul-and-#Latin-influenced #ballad is the protagonist's deep desire to be with his lover and his inability to find happiness or contentment without them. Its music uses minor keys, piano melodies.

Fegere Piouh

Con la fumata blanca la gente dice "habemus papam".

El verbo que significa 'tener' en latín es el verbo 'habeo'. 'Habemus' es "tenemos".

El complemento directo en latín se expresa (generalmente para el singular) añadiendo a la palabra la desinencia -m.

Panem habemus = tenemos pan
Rosam habeo = tengo una rosa

Habemus papam = tenemos papa

#Latín

Fegere Piouh

Para elegir al papa se encierra a los electores bajo llave y la señal para que les abran es una fumata blanca; esto es una humareda de color blanco.

"Fumo" en latín es humo. Y aunque en 'humo' o 'humareda' la efe se ha silenciado en una hache, no ocurre así con el verbo 'fumar' (que entró en nuestro vocabulario mucho tiempo después).

Este cambio lo tenemos también en palabras como harina (farina), hierro (ferrum) o hablar (fabulare).

Y ya aprovecho para hablar de otros latinajos.

Al papa se le llama también el Sumo Pontífice. En la antigua Roma (antes del cristianismo), este era el sacerdote que estaba al frente del colegio de los pontífices. Entre otras atribuciones, eran quienes debían asegurar el mantenimiento y la construcción de los "pontes" (puentes), algo esencial en una ciudad como Roma. También se encargaban de cuestiones del calendario, como fijar los días festivos.

El 21 de abril del año 753 a. C., según la tradición, Rómulo fundó la ciudad de Roma.

En la antigua Roma, una de las maneras de nombrar el año en curso era indicar los años transcurridos desde su fundación.

Las sigas AVC (o AUC) significan Ab Vrbe Condita, literalmente "desde la ciudad fundada".

2778 AVC = 2025 d. C.

Back in the #renaissance a person necessary had to know #ancient #Greek and #Latin, to study the texts in their original version.

A modern day renaissance man has to know at least c++ and python.

The word #tyrant is from #Latin tyrannus, meaning “lord, master, monarch, despot,” and ultimately from the Greek τύραννος (tyrannos), which meant “monarch, ruler of a polis” or “absolute ruler unlimited by law or #constitution”.

The Greek term possibly has origins from the Lydian tûran, meaning “lord”, referred to someone who seized power without #legal right, not necessarily ruling cruelly.

Not many teen-pop singers made a successful transition into 'club minx', but when you get a Timbaland co-sign at the height of his powers...

@biancotitanio oh cool! 👍🏻😄 I don't know anything about #Latin, I never studied it. 🤔

I tried to translate “patriarchy” into Latin, but I couldn't see anything that would also be clear for an English speaker.🤔😁

But yay for being accurate! 😁✊🏻

Tolkien wrote the Latin language using Tengwar. Tolkien used in fact the Tengwar to write several natural languages beside English.
Below Tolkien's manuscript with my transliteration.
I call this mode the "Latin full mode".

Pourquoi on écrit "aquafaba" et pas aquafabae ? Faba c'est un 1er groupe régulier, non ?
