Down in the pits with Ovid this morning, rasslin’. \u00a0I’m not moving as fast as I did a month ago, but I believe that this stretch is more difficult, not that I’m slower. \u00a0There are many small satisfactions in translation: \u00a0learning new words, puzzling out word order, identifying conjugations, putting phrases together to form a sentence and sentences together to form a narrative. \u00a0I enjoy it.<\/p>\n
Today is a Latin day, so I’ll whack away at Ovid in the afternoon, too, before I work out. \u00a0Tomorrow it’s back to Missing though I hope I can work some short Ovid sessions along the way, too.<\/p>\n
