I just *knew* Latin would come in handy!

Macy and I are learning Latin together and I have to say it is pretty interesting. Words that sounded so, er, foreign to me now make sense: declensions, and all that :>)

Yesterday, tears in our eyes from laughing so hard, we came up with a phrase that in our house is sure to come in handy.

So, "Magnus Malus Ventus," welcome to our family vernacular!

P.S. If you need a hint, ventus means wind.

Here's another one for you:
Ubi Sub ubi Meus sub ubi.

According to a friend in college, it roughly translates Where oh where is my underwear.
