Just watched a peep show episode and I read this in Mark Corrigan’s voice
“What’s this, then? ‘Romanes Eunt Domus’? ‘People called Romanes they go the house’?”
“It says ‘Romans, go home’!”
“No it doesn’t.”
What’s latin for “Roman”?
… Come on, come on!
Romanus?
What’s the plural for “-anus”?
Finally!
I really want to see reaction of roman soldiers witnessing war-elephants for the first time
“Flavius, look! It’s your wife and her mother!”
Oliphaunts Mr Frodo!
Hey good news! Lake Trasimenus is beautiful this time of year.
How often did the hoplite style shield result in an arrow to the shin or knee?
Ask that guy who took an arrow to the knee and left the legion
I don’t think the Roman’s or Greeks had B 17 bombers
Of course not: it makes sense that Bomber numbers were much lower in Ancient times. Also the Romans would’ve used roman numerals.
So Roman bombers would probably be B II, B III, maybe even B IV
Do you have a source on that?
No
maybe they were all shot down due to sampling bias? would have been B XVII .
Ehem ehem @PugJesus@piefed.social
Relax, Marcus. You’re fighting in the shade!
Corkboard shields?
Romans eat donuts?
It’s “Romans go home” in shitty Latin that’s wrong in about one to three ways from what little I can remember.
“Romanes go to the house?”
Not even that. I’m pretty sure domus is conjugated in a way that doesn’t fit in the sentence at all. I don’t know how to express the error faithfully in English, but “Romanses are going. House.” might be the closest I can put it.
You’re reading this meme in the voice of Smith as a Roman now.
Big “SHOYGU!” energy
