Latin Mojo for Modern Humans

Description

Latin is far from dead—it’s hiding in plain sight! We may not speak it anymore, but we use Latin every day, often without realizing it. In this 60-minute fun and dynamic workshop you will learn how to use Latin quotes and Latinisms with confidence and flair in everyday conversation. Latinisms are concise, elegant, and—when used well—surprisingly persuasive but beware! With great power comes great responsibility. A misplaced Latin quote can feel pretentious or downright comical.
