Linea 37:
:::::And over here (where we wear our patriotism on our sleeve), it was "America est patria nostra," not "America patria nostra est." [[Usor:IacobusAmor|IacobusAmor]] 15:37, 3 Februarii 2011 (UTC)
::::::I thought Latin words could be placed anywhere in a sentence because no matter how its worded, the sentence always maintains its basic meaning, minus emphesis. Though the use of "A est B" over "A B est" makes sense for the sake of orderliness and clearity. [[Usor:Lucretius2764|Lucretius2764]] 20:05, 3 Februarii 2011
:::::::Yep. But final est in these cases would be emphatic, and thus wrong. The middle est is unemphatic and consistent with est just being a linking verb, which is the right meaning. Final est is saying that the "being actually that" was more important than "what" it is. With the intended meaning of linking verb, the final position therefore is actually wrong, and not optional.--[[Specialis:Conlationes/123.192.64.184|123.192.64.184]] 05:14, 4 Februarii 2011 (UTC)
