Disputatio:Universitas Harvardiana

Non patet mihi cur macrona (estne verbum?) mea mutavisses! Ut mihi videtur, macrona iam 'fracta' (ut dicas) sunt! Peius scribuntur <on my computer, at least!>

It is like that on my computer as well. I suppose we should figure out whether to use accent marks and macrons at all - I would vote no :) Adam Episcopus 22:18 apr 10, 2004 (UTC)

At inspicere historiam — nonne exemplum antiqius praebet macrona bona? Doops 22:36 apr 10, 2004 (UTC)

Recte mones, sed et Adam Episcopus bona consiliavit, nam macris superscriptis, nonnulla verba difficile invenientur ope Googles (Cum Adam noster saepe nos monet ne digraphis utamur, haud mirum est eum eadem de macris dixisse ;)). Atque cogitandum est de uniformitate aliorum scriptorum, nam fortasse nolent macris adsidue scribere. Egomet modo primis verbis soleo macra seu circumflexos adscribere, vide exempli causa s.v. Alcaeda. --Iustinus

Ita fiat. Si vera quidem dicam, pacuis modo macris uti soleo: illis quae cordi discipuli periuvenalis cara sunt. Aut omnes aut nullum debeo scribere. Num Romani macra scribere? Maxilla compressa proficiscor in filum altum rete ablato Doops 00:42 apr 11, 2004 (UTC)

Perfer, obdura! -Iustinus.

Delenda

Hodie multa delenda delevi; hic gratia historiae invenientur. (Origo vitii mihi est, quod captiulum "Theatrum Sandersium" olim scripsi, qua ex fonte fortasse (ut timeo) procederunt omnia infra!) Doops 06:28, 14 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)
