Salvete omnes,

I've found an interesting site on Horace at http://quintus.horatius.free.fr/index.htm (in French). Lots of different translations, appreciations, essays, a bibliography, links etc. Defintely a site any enthousiastic Horace-reader should visit !

Valete,

Carpe internetam! (is there an apropos (since the site is in Francais) for internet in Latin? I wonder if it's in that new book the Vatican released of modern Latin; personally, I never cared for the book once I heard some of the contents, too verbose. Like car has somthing to do with mobile and auto and I don't know what else, but not automobilis/e, nope too short, it has to be a phrase. Personally, I like carrus, where we get the word from!)

Salve Scerio,

I don't know what the Vatican's latinists made of 'internet' ('aranea mundialis' would be my suggestion), but here's a short Italian-Modern Latin vocabulary on the website of the Vatican itself :

If you are interested in the topic of modern Latin, you can always have a look at the following threads where we discussed it in the past :
