New Cambridge Latin Course Book 1 Stage 10 Statuae Translation The Cambridge Latin Course is a series of textbooks that introduce students to the Latin language and culture of the ancient Romans. The course consists of five books, each divided into several stages that cover different topics and stories. In this article, we will look at the translation of one of the stories from Book 1, Stage 10, called Statuae (Statues). Statuae is a story about Alexander, a young Greek man who lives in Pompeii and studies rhetoric with his teacher Theodorus. He decides to buy some statues as gifts for his two brothers, Diodorus and Thrasymachus, who are celebrating their birthday. He finds a street vendor who sells three statues: an old man, a young man, and a pretty girl. He buys them and brings them home, but his brothers start arguing over who gets the girl statue. Alexander solves the problem by giving the old man statue to Thrasymachus, who likes philosophy, the young man statue to Diodorus, who likes painting, and keeping the girl statue for himself, since he is single. Here is the translation of the story from Latin to English:
postquam TheodÅrus Alexandrum laudÄvit, iuvenÄs PompÄiÄnÄ« Ä porticÅ« discessÄrunt. Alexander frÄtribus dÅnum quaerÄbat, quod diem nÄtÄlem celebrÄbant. in viÄ Ä«nstitor parvÄs statuÄs vÄndÄbat et clÄmÄbat: "statuae! optimae statuae!" statuae erant senex, iuvenis, puella pulchra. Alexander statuÄs Ämit et vÄ«llam intrÄvit. duo frÄtrÄs in hortÅ sedÄbant. DiodÅrus pictÅ«ram pingÄbat, Thrasymachus librum Graecum legÄbat. postquam Alexander et QuÄ«ntus vÄ«llam intrÄvÄrunt, puerÄ« ad eÅs cucurrÄrunt. "vÅs estis fÄlÄ«cÄs," inquit Alexander. "ego vÅbÄ«s dÅnum habeÅ quod vÅs diem nÄtÄlem celebrÄtis." "quam pulchra est puella!" inquit DiodÅrus. "dÄ mihi puellam!" "minimÄ! frÄter, dÄ mihi puellam!" clÄmÄvit Thrasymachus. "hercle! vÅs estis stultissimÄ« puerÄ«!" clÄmÄvit Alexander Ä«rÄtus. "ego tibi senem dÅ, quod senex erat philosophus. DiodÅre, tibi iuvenem dÅ, quod iuvenis erat pictor. ego mihi puellam dÅ, quod ego sum solus!"
After Theodorus praised Alexander, the young Pompeians left from the portico. Alexander was looking for a gift for his brothers, because they were celebrating their birthday. In the street, a street vendor was selling small statues and shouting: "Statues! The best statues!" The statues were an old man, a young man, and a pretty girl. Alexander bought the statues and entered the house. The two brothers were sitting in the garden. Diodorus was painting a picture, Thrasymachus was reading a Greek book. After Alexander and Quintus entered the house, the boys ran to them. "You are lucky," said Alexander. "I have a gift for you because you are celebrating your birthday." "How beautiful is the girl!" said Diodorus e2b6ddb00d
