I grew up in the southern United States and it’s a common colloquialism to, when speaking of future events to add “if the good Lord is willing, and the creek don’t rise.”

I have used i.e. many times, had no idea it means id est. 😊 (I knew what it meant contextually).
The comments are very elucidating in furthering my understanding of the ablative!

We're learning Latin in our homeschooling program. It is fun being able to understand history in a whole new light.

Chris Morton :
I always wanted to learn Latin in school, but they only let those who were in the top set of French classes take Latin, and that wasn't me.
this has inspired me to try though. Never to old, right?

Thank you for this Brian, it reminded me wonderfully of my grandfather, and his insatiable curiosity. He loved teaching me whatever new thing he had just learned. A wise man like yourself.

I was inspired by my 87 year old professor to learn latin, but no courses I can take here so im trying to teach myself. Can you ask for book recommendations other than LLPSI? For beginners of course.

You're both amazing. Does she talk to someone in ancient Greek like fellow scholars or something? If I knew a kind of dead language I'd use it with friends as our secret language

I learned Latin in school. It certainly helped with learning modern languages like French, Spanish, even English to an extent. Beyond that, I’ve forgotten so much that I can barely read simple texts
