Episodion Tricesimum: De Origine Saturnalium

Salvete sodales! Welcome to our series, "Rem Tene!" It's a Latin podcast presented by our company 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, tell you about the origins of Saturnalia and a bit about why this was celebrated and dedicated to Saturn, as opposed to other Roman gods. 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: https://www.habesnelac.com/rem-tene/tricesimum We hope you enjoy this show!
