Blog Post 5/4 Ovid, Julius Caesar, and Chemistry

In Latin write now, we are translating poetry and it is difficult to interpret from the translation what is going on because it is a complicated topic and it uses poetic language that is difficult to understand.  The same thing is happening in English when we are reading Julius Caesar which contains language that is difficult to understand.  Shakespeare uses unique words but he puts the definitions to those unique words on the left pages in the book.  There are also a lot of names that end in "us" like Brutus, Cassius, Lucilius, etc.  We also learned the word for golden which is aureus.  Au is the symbol on the periodic table which is gold.
