Book synopsis

Sound Smarter, Look Better, and Live Longer with Everyday Latin. Veni, Vidi, Vici is a treasure trove of more than 1,000 Latin words and phrases to help you intelligently insult adversaries, compliment lovers, or comment on anything at all. Each entry is accompanied by a direct translation, classical pronunciation, and witty exploration of the real meaning. As entertaining as it is informative, this updated edition of Eugene Ehrlich's classic guide includes a new introduction and updated explanations alongside timeless wisdom on such topics as: Political strategy: ""Audacter calumniare semper aliquid haeret"" ("Slander boldly, something always sticks.") Tough economic times: ""Corpus valet sed aegrotat crumena"" ("What good is health if you can't afford to enjoy it?") The art of flattery: ""Dea certe"" ("Assuredly a goddess.") Love and heartbreak: ""Militiae species amor est"" ("Love is a kind of military service.") "Et plura!" ("And more!")
