Hey, I'm impressed.
By "my Latin is rusty", I meant non-existent. But you lot are Latin grammarians!
And why not? After all, as my Latin For Every Occassion handbook tells me,
Omnia dicta fortiora, si dicta Latina!
Everything sounds so much more impressive when said in Latin!
So true.
Anyway, forgive my stupidity, but does this mean:
De profundis clamavi ad te Domine = Out of the depths, I have cried to you, O Lord.
and,
De profundis clamere ad te domine = Out of the depths, I cry to you, O Lord.
while,
"De profundis clamo ad te domine" = boo-boo ?
Thanks.
