Episodion Primum: Praefatio

Salvete sodales! Welcome to our new series, "Rem Tene;" a Latin podcast presented by Latinitas Animi Causa for beginner and intermediate learners of the Latin language built and designed for the acquisition and understanding of it as a language, not just a code to decipher. In this episode, I, Andreas, introduce the series and the rationale behind it. We took great inspiration from Cuentame by Marta Ruiz Yedinak for this podcast and we thank her tons for her amazing Spanish materials. Here, we replicate her model with some tweaks and entirely in Latin. We gloss some words throughout the episode in English and repeat them. We don't, however, gloss everything. Our brains are really good at deducing meaning when we know a lot of the context surrounding words or phrases. The transcript for the show can be found here so you can follow along. We hope you enjoy this show! Please take some time, if you enjoy this, to rate us and write to us! We love hearing from our listeners and receiving feedback on how we can improve! You can also support us here on Anchor or via Patreon (link below); though everything is free, it helps us do what we do and reinvest in creating more Latin and ancient Greek content. Gratias vobis agimus et curate ut valeatis in proximum!
