Write a short Latin e-mail of one or two sentences, encouraging people to participate in the Certamen Latinum. Add an English translation to the Latin sentence(s) to indicate what the conveyed meaning of your phrases was. If you finished the e-mail, give an individual English title to your message indicating that you are encouraging participation in the Latin Contest, and send it to both my address for this contest for corrections:
 +
 +
<cnaeus_cornelius AT yahoo DOT com>
 +
 +
AND also send it to the following 2 mailing lists:
 +
 +
<nova-roma@yahoogroups.com>
 +
<latinitas@yahoogroups.com>
 +
 +
Points are given for each grammatically and syntactically good Latin words that you used in your sentence(s), but no more points will be given than a total of 30 points.
 +
 +
ATTENTION:
 +
 +
Since these answers of yours are to be sent both publicly and privately to me, there is an EXTRA RULE in this round. You must check the two mailing lists before sending your solutions, and you have to read the entries posted by your fellow contestants. Once you have read what others posted, you have to take care because you CAN NOT USE the same words that previously have been used by your fellow contestants who posted their solutions earlier than you. You can use only synonyms, circumscriptions, or other words.
 +
 +
Words used previously by another contestant will not be awarded by points. SO BE QUICK! The more contestants will have posted before you, the more difficult it will be to phrase your Latin sentence.
