Here are shown a few samples of the interviews with characters from ancient Rome. A Latin Qvarter film with Robert Bathurst, Marco Bortolami, Olivia Cockburn, Anthony Easton, Edward Gillespie, Tom Morris, Giada Pantano and Steve Wright. Filmed and produced by George Sharpley. Nero is the emperor, the first Christians are in Rome, and a few months earlier the northern province of Britannia has been rocked by a bloody uprising. Boudicca, queen of the rebellious Iceni, now lies dead, her army too. In Rome, people are nervously awaiting the outcome of a recent murder: Lucius Pedanius Secundus, the city prefect and former consul, has been killed by his own slave. The law demands the execution of all 400 slaves in his household, man, woman and child. Their fate is the talk of Rome ... talk that is here preserved in filmed interviews with a senator, slave, gladiator, merchant, poet and other Romans of the time. The Latin Qvarter has recreated a realistic idea of people speaking the Latin language in ancient Rome.

CAPITVLVM OCTAVVM - CAVE CANEM - LINGVA LATINA
Latin (lingua latīna, IPA: [laˈtiːna]) is an Italic language originally spoken in Latium and Ancient Rome. Although it is often considered a dead language, a small number of scholars and members of the Christian clergy can speak it fluently, and it continues to be taught in schools and universities. Latin has been, and currently is, used in the process of new word production in modern languages from many different families, including English. Latin and its daughter Romance languages are the only surviving branch of the Italic language family. Other branches, known as Italic languages, are attested in documents surviving from early Italy, but were assimilated during the Roman Republic. The one possible exception is Venetic, the language of the people who settled Venetia, who in Roman times spoke their language in parallel with Latin. The extensive use of elements from vernacular speech by the earliest authors and inscriptions of the Roman Republic make it clear that the original, unwritten language of the Roman Monarchy was a colloquial form only partly reconstructable called Vulgar Latin. By the late Roman Republic literate persons mainly at Rome had created a standard form from the spoken language of the educated and empowered now called Classical Latin, then called simply Latin or Latinity. The term Vulgar Latin came to mean the various dialects of the citizenry. With the Roman conquest, Latin spread to countries around the Mediterranean, and the vernacular dialects <b>...</b>

For the French, I am deliberately pronouncing a "trilled r" to keep in line with the other languages. This is not a mistake; it's a regional pronunciation still heard in limited areas, albeit not standard. Music by Kevin McLeod: incompetech.com

Transport barge and tug on intracoastal
Transport barge and tug on intracoastal
Extreme barge on intracoastal. A barge is a flat-bottomed boat, built mainly for river and canal transport of heavy goods. Some barges are not self-propelled and need to be towed by tugboats or pushed by towboats. Canal barges, towed by draft animals on an adjacent towpath, contended with the railway in the early industrial revolution, but were outcompeted in the carriage of high-value items due to the higher speed, falling costs, and route flexibility of rail.Barge is attested from 1300, from Old French barge, from Vulgar Latin barga. The word originally could refer to any small boat; the modern meaning arose around 1480. Bark "small ship" is attested from 1420, from Old French barque, from Vulgar Latin barca (400 AD). The more precise meaning "three-masted ship" arose in the 17th century, and often takes the French spelling for disambiguation. Both are probably derived from the Latin barica, from Greek baris "Egyptian boat", from Coptic bari "small boat".On the Great British canal system, the term 'barge' is used to describe a boat wider than a narrowboat, and the people who move barges are often known as lightermen. In the United States, deckhands perform the labor and are supervised by a leadman or the mate. The captain and pilot steer the towboat, which pushes one or more barges held together with rigging, collectively called 'the tow'. The crew live aboard the towboat as it travels along the inland river system or the intracoastal waterways. These towboats travel <b>...</b>

Religion of the ancient Dacia (people living in the territory of the present-day Romania)
Religion of the ancient Dacia (people living in the territory of the present-day Romania)
Religion of the ancient Dacia (music by Romanian pan flute artist, Gherghe Zamfir). Dacia The earliest written evidence of people living in the territory of the present-day Romania comes from Herodotus in book IV of his Histories written 440 BCE. Herein he writes that the tribal confederation of the Getae were defeated by the Persian Emperor Darius the Great during his campaign against the Scythians. The Dacians, widely accepted as part of the Getae described earlier by the Greeks, were a branch of Thracians that inhabited Dacia (corresponding to modern Romania, Moldova and northern Bulgaria). The Dacian kingdom reached its maximum expansion during King Burebista, between 82 BCE - 44 BCE. Under his leadership Dacia became a powerful state which threatened the regional interests of the Romans. Julius Caesar intended to start a campaign against the Dacians, due to the support that Burebista gave to Pompey, but was assassinated in 44 BC. A few months later, Burebista shared the same fate, assassinated by his own noblemen. Another theory suggests that he was killed by Caesar's friends. His powerful state was divided in four and did not become unified again until 95 AD, under the reign of the Dacian king Decebalus. The Roman Empire conquered Moesia by 29 BC, reaching the Danube. In 87 AD Emperor Domitian sent six legions into Dacia, which were defeated at Tapae. The Dacians were eventually defeated by Emperor Trajan in two campaigns stretching from 101 AD to 106 AD, and the <b>...</b>

România iarna
România iarna
România is a country located at the crossroads of Central and Southeastern Europe, north of the Balkan Peninsula, on the Lower Danube, within and outside the Carpathian arch, bordering on the Black Sea. Romania shares a border with Hungary and Serbia to the west, Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova to the northeast, and Bulgaria to the south. Although some 42000 years old human remains were discovered in the "Cave With Bones", and being Europe's oldest remains of Homo sapiens they may represent the first modern humans to have entered the continent, the earliest written evidence of people living in the territory of the present-day Romania comes from Herodotus, in his 440 BCE book IV of his Histories (Herodotus). Dacians, considered a part of the Getae tribes mentioned by Herodotus, were a branch of Thracians that inhabited Dacia (corresponding mostly to present-day Romania). The Dacian kingdom reached its peak between 82--44 BC during the reign of Burebista, but was eventually conquered by the Roman Empire in the aftermath of Dacian Wars (87--106 AD), and transformed into the province of Roman Dacia. Due to Dacia's rich ore deposits (especially gold and silver), Rome brought colonists from all over the empire. This brought Vulgar Latin and started a period of intense romanization, that would give birth to the Proto-Romanian language. During the 3rd century AD, with the invasions of migratory populations, the Roman Empire was forced to pull out of Dacia around 271 AD <b>...</b>

Chori Chori (1956) Man Bhavan Keh Ghar Jayeh Gori ,Bani Rahe Yeh Pyar Ki Jodi !Hamein Na Bhulanah !
Name The term "Romance" comes from the Vulgar Latin adverb romanice, derived from Romanicus: for instance, in the expression romanice loqui, "to speak in Roman" (that is, the Latin vernacular), contrasted with latine loqui, "to speak in Latin" (Medieval Latin, the conservative version of the language used in writing and formal contexts or as a lingua franca), and with barbarice loqui, "to speak in Barbarian" (the non-Latin languages of the peoples that conquered the Roman Empire).[1] From this adverb the noun romance originated, which applied initially to anything written romanice, or "in the Roman vernacular". The word romance with the modern sense of romance novel or love affair has the same origin. In the medieval literature of Western Europe, serious writing was usually in Latin, while popular tales, often focusing on love, were composed in the vernacular and came to be called "romances".

Listen, also, to this song in Aromanian (Vlach) language: www.youtube.com In Greece, the Aromanians are called Vlachs (Greek: Βλάχοι). There are numerous festivals celebrating Aromanian culture all over Greece. The Panhellenic Federation of Cultural Associations of Vlachs (www.vlachs-popsv.gr) has publicly stated that they do not want Aromanian recognized as a minority language nor do they want it inserted into the education system, and the same organization also protested, when Thede Kahl discussed in a paper if they could be designated a "minority". In Greece, Aromanians are not regarded as an ethnic but as a linguistic - albeit unrecognized officially - minority, since most of them express an ethnic Greek identity. The majority of the Aromanian population lives in northern and central Greece. The main areas inhabited by these populations are the Pindus Mountains, around the mountains of Olympus and Vermion, and around the Prespa Lakes near the border with Albania. Some Aromanians can still be found in isolated rural settlements such as Samarina, Perivoli and Smixi.
