Note that the song is titled “Panis Et Circenses” but otherwise it’s usually “panem et circenses,” with the bread in the accusative.

Just saw on TCM that Walter Matthau used the term sine invidia in a letter to Billy WIlder about The Fortune Cookie script.

— Em tibi autem!— Quidnamst?— Lupus in fabula.— Pater est?— Ipsust.— Terence, Adelphoe 535–539
— But look!— What is it?— Talk of the devil!— It’s my father?— In person. (Transl. Barsby, 2001)
obv (and against barsby) i favour "whomst is it?" for "quidnamst?"

The Duolingo course is not so great but at least it has audio and I haven’t personally maxed it out like so many others so I have been plugging away at it recently

Apparently the preferred method by far these days of self-study is a book known as Lingua Latina or LLPSI (in full, LINGVA LATINA PER SE ILLVSTRATA), written by a Danish linguist and high school teacher named Hans Ørberg. It’s 100% in Latin and uses the Natural Method to teach, which I guess means letting the brain what it does naturally. There is all kinds of ancillary material built up around if, including the audio version I just linked to.

I realized recently I still know the Our Father and Hail Mary in latin which I guess is what happens when you take Latin at a catholic HS.
