Latin Proverbs 1921-1930

This blog is back from a long break while I was finishing up my newest book from Lulu Publishers: Vulgate Verses: 4000 Sayings from the Bible for Teachers and Students of Latin. Now that the book is done (at last!), I should be able to get back on schedule posting audio materials here at this blog. In addition, I've also posted some information here about Why I Read Latin Out Loud.

Below is some more audio to accompany my Latin Via Proverbs book. The book is available from lulu.com, and it organizes the proverbs into grammatical categories, something that I hope can make the book useful for Latin students at any level, starting from the very first day of studying Latin!

If you are looking for English translations and notes to these proverbs, check out the LatinViaProverbs.com website - it's been completely revamped so that the Latin, English and audio are all available together, along with a search engine that covers the contents of both Latin Via Proverbs and Vulgate Verses.

1921. Una domus non alit duos canes.
1922. E domo felis discedit mus impransus.
1923. Natura non facit saltus.
1924. E Tantali horto fructus colligis.
1925. Arbor bona bonos fructus facit.
1926. Omnis arbor bona fructus bonos facit.
1927. Ad primos ictus non corruit ardua quercus.
1928. Brevis una voluptas mille parit luctus.
