Okay, folks. I need your help here. Back in March we did Finnish, and I wound up in Helsinki. Mrs. Sionnsar would like to see Rome again (and show it to me for the first time), so this month we're doing Latin. Ouday ouyay atinlay eakspay? How do you say "beer" in Latin?

Hmm. I never learned how to say “beer” in latin, but in honor of the Flu Formerly Known As Swine I can say “Manus manum lavat”.
That and “elepantus non capit murem”.
That’s it for my seventh grade latin class.

How do you say “beer” in Latin?
How do you say “we made wine from barley and hops”, in Latin?
That’s where the answer to this and other age old questions could be found.

"Back in March we did Finnish, and I wound up in Helsinki. Mrs. Sionnsar would like to see Rome again (and show it to me for the first time), so this month we're doing Latin." Something you may not be considering; in modern-day Rome, they don't typically speak Latin.
So if you get to go somewhere as a result of having selected this thread, it could be a trip through time.
This may not be an entirely bad thing. If you do find yourself in ancient Rome, please deposit five dollars or so in an interest-bearing account for me. I'll pay you back next month.

As far as I can tell.
