-noli me vocare, ego te vocabo-

Having trouble with our journals, are we? I suppose that given all the weighty matters being entrusted to the journal system every day, some form of leakage was inevitable over time. Well, I hope it's a valuable lesson for all of you. Stultum est timere quod vitare non potes. Si hoc legere scis, flocci non facio; die dulci fruere.

Vita luna est, et una salus victis nullam sperare salutem.....


To my future Ancient Runes students:


[["It's absurd to fear the inevitable. If you can read this, I don't care; have a nice day. Life is mad, and resignation the last hope of the vanquished." Strikes partially readable. All of which is cribbed from these sites.... just pretend it's real scholarly Latin, ok? XD The runes are Tolkien's dwarf runes as evolved from the Elder Futhark, and they offer points to anyone who can read or identify them.]]

Private to Professor Bainbridge

Although I placed it in private but I doubt that would work...anyway...

If you can read this,
ten points to your house.
Five more if you can identify it.

English written in cirth runes.

[[I THINK?! *went to research it whut* Eh, any error made would be due to the mun's lack of knowledge DDDX ]]

Autem, id imperfectum manet dum confectum erit. Dum spiritus vita est, spes est.


[["However, it's not over until it's over. As long as the spirit lives, there is hope." I smudged the last sentence a bit; originally it was just "where there is life", but that seemed a bit cruel, given Bob's circumstances. XD]]

((HALLO, LATIN. ♥ I have nothing important to say here, it just made me squee to see "flocci non facio." I just woke up, shh.))

Pro nonnullus , nox noctis est key ut superstes , pro alius , is tantum addo periculosus.

Quiquid latine dictum sit altum viditur

I don't belive I can acurately translate those runes.

((man, the translation I got for the latin you posted up is not working at all. Something about the moon hoping advantageous and a way of life.))

Fac ut vivas.

*snorts and laughs because HE'S A GHOST, WHUT!*

[[It means, 'Get a life' XD]]

Here is one of my favourite sayings Professor..

Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum...

and here is your answer for the runes [http://pics.livejournal.com/dragonofhonor/pic/00018fts]

[[Ha! Go look up the first, it fits Tatsuki! And the Runes scanned too big and I don't know how to resize, obviously I fail hard.. so.. pretend they are here.. It says "The runes above are dwarf runes. Probably from Futhark the elder. This is child's play. Tatsuki is in her third year of Runes~ and was studying to be a Curse Breaker..]]

Latine dictum, sit altum videtur.

Those are Dwarf runes, from the Elder Futhark. If I am correct, Gryffindor should receive fifteen points.
