Thanks for these! I was able to puzzle them out, and they were fun--though I think I'm going to need to read the essay to understand how fortune is like a glass. :) Orberg's the first textbook I've been able to stick with in self-study. I actually look forward to the next chapters, rather than dreading them.

Thanks, I am trying to teach myself Latin using Orberg's Lingua Latina I, and I just found your fables and proverbs. They're a little above my level right now, but they just looked so fun.

My tuxedo's named Lucy, BTW :-)

I mainly want to be able to read Latin fluently.
I've went through a lot of Rosetta Stone Latin, and the Minimus books, and some Wheelock's.
My Rome built a forum recently. We have 7 hills here as well. Sometimes the city adds something classical - we just added some new column statues at the city welcome - but I wish we'd do more.
We have a replica Romulus and Remus given to us by the city of Rome, and it stands in a prominent place to this day. Sometimes people go and put diapers on the babies.

I have already read some of the books and found them very interesting.
Since I'm also teaching French and English, beside Latin, to my children, I would be glad to have the code you're writting about.
I have already translated the vocabulary of some of the Fables from Latin to Japanese and will begin to read the first of the Aesop's Fables with the children in September, after our summer vacations.
Thank you again.

Thank you for your message.
Yes, I'm a French citizen... but I have lived in Japan for the last 15 years, as a consequence it may be that I'm not anymore so French.
I teach Latin to my children (two boys and two girls) and find your Latin via Fables very useful and convenient for this purpose. Thank you for all this work.
