Spoken Roman Latin, from TV Show "Barbarians" | ictionar roman

Rome IS good

.. i versteh ah' nix .. wenn's um Abgaben geht (obwohl i'drei Jahr Latein g'habt hab)🤣😂😅🤣

They made up, at least.. uhmm.. during World War 2.

Roman doesent sound like its just meant to be written, not spoken

The guy playing the Roman commander is a really good actor, everything about his character is intense and intimating.

The Latin sounds very cool!

This is an accurate representation of Roman 'tude

So many stirrups

A Roman centurion to be send in Germany, something bad had does,or he is a lil touchy

anyone notice the German guy translating mistranslated what the Roman was saying on purpose?
He wanted the conflict!

Theyd probably have a translator for this sort of thing.

Some people should not be allowed to take their shirts off.

I am actually surprised that the various Germanic tribes eventually united and became the foundation for modern Germany. God knows they bickered and fought with each other often during the time of the Roman Empire. Although Arminius temporarily united some of them I understand that they eventually killed him off too. Many different accents today in different parts of Germany. I was exposed mostly to German spoken in Berlin area. Yes, they pretty much all understand each other but some differences in pronunciation as you move down south.

Als der Römer gesagt hat er soll das wiederholen, schoss mir sofort als Antwort durch den Kopf "OB DU BEHINDERT BIST HAB ICH GEFRAGT !?!" xD

Latin to me is the most beautiful language.

And now the northerners claim they are descendants of Romans and Greeks LMAO what a funny world we live in

While the recording quality certainly is great, there are several historical errors in this scene:

First, there are some dark-haired men among the Germanics carrying arms. This is false, as people with dark hair were seen as unfree (slaves) and were – if anything – tolerated as slaves.

Second, and this one is the most obvious, these men are speaking high-German, not the actual Germanic language, not even the medieval high German, called Middle High German, which was much closer to the ancient Germanic language than what is spoken in Germany today. They could have easily studied and rehearsed some Middle High German for this scene, as no one would've noticed the difference between that and the ancient Germanic anyways, as it already sounds very exotic and ancient to our modern ears.

Third, that one guy is obese. While it might have been possible for some Germanic tribesmen to get a bit bigger, none of them were that fat. They ate mostly wild game and drank raw milk, had no sweets or junk food whatsoever, so it was nearly impossible to binge to obesity. They also had to stay fit for war, which was almost always happening or about to happen.

And last but not least, the Latin "dialect" seems way too modern and Italian. This is how a modern Roman would speak Latin, not how a noble, respectable Roman general would've spoken it. They would've remained calm, made demands in a very civil, almost polite manner, and then left. They wouldn't have entered the village like Genghis Khan and his wild horde of Mongol warriors, spoken like a vain and arrogant super villain from a Bond movie, and then even curse during negotiations. They were far too civilized for that.

It is not a bad scene at all; for a fantasy movie. But "historically accurate" would be a bit of an overstatement.
