Sorry. Skipped Thursday's blog. Nothing new to translate.
Well, this week's translations weren't too horrible. Some of the diction was a bit...but it wasn't too bad. I don't really remember them. However, I didn't think they were too bad.
Horace is a great poet. His poems are a bit difficult (I was really tired; I had to look up "villa"), but generally speaking good. I like how he uses various themes, ranging from mourning to erotic to insulting to just liking nature. I MISSED SO MANY WORDS ON THE SIGHT TRANSLATION:( The word order and diction Horace uses is really nice. He's not too difficult, and his hyperbaton isn't too extreme. All in all, I like him :)
