Salvete,

Just a simple question: what is the ancient Greek word for "metal"? A word that could mean "gravity" or "ice" is also welcome. I forgot a lot, as you can see . I need to know these words to form compounds with -kinesis for the novel I'm writing.

Salvete,

Today, the first chariot races of 2758 start, since the Carmentalia were skipped. As we speak, the charioteers are now racing in the circus. Results will come soon!

Salve Curio,

Get well soon! Perhaps Pisc and Orcus could use some incantations to make the gods favour your health .

Salve Mari,

You know, when people from Germanic countries go to Romance countries, they think exactly the same because of the fast speaking pace and the body language of the locals .

By the way Publi Scriboni, that's an impressive feat!

I'll try to drop by this evening.

Salve Orce,

Well, ancient medicine was always a blade that cut both ways. It's no coincidence the Greek word 'pharmakon' both means 'poison' and 'medicine'...

Vale bene,
Draco

Jo, das glaube ich auch.

Allerdings bin ich für die Idee .

These .ru accounts are all spam-accounts, and the frater meus deletes them as quickly as possible. It's all part of the job!

Salve Scerio,

No, I've never heard of this book, but could you summarise its main arguments?

Salve Attice,

Pissalat doesn't sound tasty, and I have always found the garum concept a gross one, too.

Vale,
Draco

Salve Attice,

No, I'm not a Lawrence fan. But the prospect just seemed interesting.

Vale,
