My eldest had Latin class in middle school, and loved it - and picked up the nickname, "the Latin lady" there. She made Phi Beta Kappa with a major in languages in college.

My tagline is in Latin, so I couldn't resist posting to this thread.
I tried a couple days to do the same thing but couldn't get an online translator to the same thing twice so I gave up.

. . . vivos ducent de marmore voltus;
orabunt causas melius, caelique meatus
describent radio et surgentia sidera dicent:
tu regere imperio populos, Romane, memento
(hae tibi erunt artes) pacique imponere morem,
parcere subiectis et debellare superbos.
--Virgil, Aeneid, VI, 848-53
