Schreib nicht mehr im Latein.
Possum sī volo.
Du hast die Lebe gewonnt.
Gratias vobis ago omnes. Voluptas mea est.
Kopfhande.
Iam possum mori laeta.
Jetzt?
Nescio quid sit verbum illud.
Diese Minute. Wenn wir hier sitzen.
Fortasse in multīs annīs sī non hodie. Spero non me mortūra esse hodie.
Das ist sehr schade. Vielleicht morgens?
Est tristissimam. Vive cum eo.
Ich lebe weil ich will und nicht weil du hast mir gesagt, dass ich soll.
Non intellego linguam Germanum bene.

I am relieved that this quaint,but treacherous custom has not been completely lost to the digital mammoth.
