More on Latin: pace the writer, I feel that there probably ARE Latin teachers out there who would force their students to have an awkward scripted conversation about their winter break--and that the students would be better for it. I was going to say that this would probably require resorting to numerous circumlocutions and perhaps reference to whatever database of neologisms the Vatican maintains. And this is probably true, actually. However, if you want to talk about your trip to Sugarloaf, it turns out that the Sieur du Cange has you covered.

OK, I should probably get back to work now.
