For Latin students/scholars: What is the difference between Numquam and Nusquam?

Well, nuMquam means "never", and nuSquam means "nowhere". But please don't ask me why, I have no idea. =)

perhaps roman numerals

You can learn Latin at textkit.com.  They have downloadable grammars and readers, and it is all free.  They have an online forum where you can post things.  I don't believe they have a lot of activity, but you can't beat the price.  Plus the moderators there actually know Latin.

I The easiest way to note down a number is to make that many marks - little I's. Thus I means 1, II means 2, III means 3. However, four strokes seemed like too many.... \nV So the Romans moved on to the symbol for 5 - V. Placing I in front of the V — or placing any smaller number in front of any larger number — indicates subtraction. So IV means 4. After V comes a series of additions - VI means 6, VII means 7, VIII means 8.  \nX X means 10. But wait — what about 9? Same deal. IX means to subtract I from X, leaving 9. Numbers in the teens, twenties and thirties follow the same form as the first set, only with X's indicating the number of tens. So XXXI is 31, and XXIV is 24. \nL L means 50. Based on what you've learned, I bet you can figure out what 40 is. If you guessed XL, you're right = 10 subtracted from 50. And thus 60, 70, and 80 are LX, LXX and LXXX. \nC C stands for centum, the Latin word for 100. A centurion led 100 men. We still use this in words like "century" and "cent." The subtraction rule means 90 is written as XC. Like the X's and L's, the C's are tacked on to the beginning of numbers to indicate how many hundreds there are: CCCLXIX is 369. \nD D stands for 500. As you can probably guess by this time, CD means 400. So CDXLVIII is 448. (See why we switched systems?) \nM M is 1,000. You see a lot of Ms because Roman numerals are used a lot to indicate dates. For instance, this page was written in the year of Nova Roma's founding, 1998 CE (Common Era; Christians use AD for Anno Domini, "year of our Lord"). That year is written as MCMXCVIII. But wait! Nova Roma counts years from the founding of Rome, ab urbe condita. By that reckoning Nova Roma was founded in 2751 a.u.c. or MMDCCLI. \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n! --!>  \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nV\n \n Larger numbers were indicated by putting a horizontal line over them, which meant to multiply the number by 1,000. Hence the V at left has a line over the top, which means 5,000. This usage is no longer current, because the largest numbers usually expressed in the Roman system are dates, as discussed above.

You gotta explain what that is. Not many of us here know Latin.

Well, why is the number 18 in Latin pronounced duodeviginti (2 down from 20), instead of octodecim (following the pattern of the numbers from 11-17)? Same goes for Spanish, but with different wording.\n\nAlso, then why in Chinese do we not say one ten (and) three for 13 instead of ten (and) three, but we say one hundred one ten three for 113? (translated for your benefit)\n\nThere's just something in the etymology of the numbers that dictate it that way. (The others have the explanations of the specific etymology of the number 11)

This is definitely not Latin, but lorem ipsum.  There are far too many misspelled words in that piece for it to be real Latin.  The word "nonummy" is a dead giveaway, as it is not that close to any real Latin word but does appear in lorem ipsum.\n\nFrom the website:\nLorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Yes, but there are also other differences in pronunciation. I have a few years experience with Latin, I am not fluent by any means but I know a little about it. \n\n"vice versa" would sound most like "w-ee-ch-ay where-sa" if you were to read that as English.

I studied Latin in college (8 semesters).\n\nI would recommend "English Grammar for Students of Latin"\nThis is very good because Latin is so grammar intensive.\n\nI would also recommend Cassell's Latin Dictionary, at least in the beginning.\n\nYou can also study Latin online for free at textkit.com\n\nThe books listed there are good ones that you might even use in a real Latin class.  (although the best Latin textbook by far is Linguam Latinam per se Illustrata)\n\nLatin involves a lot of memorization of forms and vocabulary and scientists have found that the part of the brain one uses while translating Latin is the same part used when doing math!\n\nWhen you study Latin, do a little every day and constantly go over what you have already learned.  It is impossible to "fake it", and everything new that you learn is built upon what you (should) already know.\n\nLatin is a very difficult language and very challenging, but stick with it!  It forces you to learn grammar so well that you will eventually impress (or annoy) your English professors/teachers by correcting their grammar and pointing out rhetorical devices such as the zeugma.\n\nWhen I started my advanced Latin classes, I never wrote an essay with a grade lower than an A- ever again!

From what I know, they're the same, with a few added tools for the Student version.\n\nBut, for the most part, the major difference between the two is the price. Student version is cheaper from what I know.

It's latin \nE= from\nPlubirus= many\nUnum= one\n\nso basically, "out of (or from) many- one," referring to the USA.

Hmm, I hope the reason is not because 4 is IV and 6 is VI in roman numerals. If so, I can't finish the proof by explaining why someone would perceive IV and VI as the same number :)

Yes, they are similar, but spanish has a bit of an arabic influence and itallian does not.  Thats where some of the major differences come.  However, if you know one, learning the other will be easier than learning the first one.

960\n\nL has 480 less, and S has 480 more, so the difference is 960.

Postscriptum. (latin) if I am not wrong
