I love how completely uneducated about Scottish history you'd have to be to think this. You'd pretty much have to not be Scottish. I mean, the Vikings and Romans did invade (successfully) the Scotts, it's just the Romans were let in by the Scottish celts (gotta get dat gold) and the Vikings became the Scots. Then the Viking Scots invaded northern Ireland.

I'm actually being serious when I say I love how uneducated you'd have to be to believe it- the best patriotic memes are blatantly wrong. I was just going on to bore people about a subject (history) I love and can't stop myself from commenting about.

greenimp (03/06/2015) [-] Fun fact, in Latin you always pronounce C as a hard k sound.
I've ruined the joke, but you've learned something.

Depends on what time period you're talking about- the language changed dramatically, as much as English has from Old English. To the point that old writing became illegible, and certain characters became obsolete.

Yeah, but they've backtraced it and looked at old poetry with rhymes in it and they think they know how **** was really pronounced. Apparently Vatican latin is the closest to it.

I heard Italian Latin was different to Vatican Latin, but okay. And yeah, it's insane- V = W and all that.

some people actually pronounce it differently in italy itself
like my two different latin teachers said different things
felt like the first one was more reliable about pronounciation
not entirely sure though. i mean some people say "ae" should just be read "eh", some separate it, some say the c is always hard, some dont. Pretty sure the V is always pronounced like a W or a U though, since the distinction between V and U didnt exist. in fact the letter U didnt exist. but it was just the letter V instead. get it?
latin. did the weird language **** two thousand years before english did

Latin was infamously dumb even to the Romans. Very few people spoke actually grammatically correct Latin, and those that did were very well known for it.

Nope. It was pronounced Kaesar. German didn't have the group ae, so it became kaisar, then kaiser probably because of the influence of the i on the following a.
In Italy the group ae became eh = kesar. Then all the k in front of i/e became ch. Which is why in vatican latin is pronunced Chesar and in italian Chesareh.

Yes. At the time of Julius Caesar, his name was pronounced Yooleeus Kaiser.

If Caesar was pronounced that way the romans would have written Caiser. The second e in kaiser doesn't make any sense as classical pronunciation: in vatican latin and italy it's still pronounced "ah" just like the classical pronunciation of the latin letter a. So, it should be something like ['kaesar] in IPA.

xAELiTe (03/06/2015) [-] I love how everyone is killing the joke by taking the Latin pronunciation, when this is clearly written in English. Caesar Cardini most definitely does not pronounce his name "Kaizar."

lawuser (03/06/2015) [-] Isn't Caesar pronounced as kaiser though?
From my half year's worth of Latin I at least know Cs are pronounced as K.
Makes sense if you think about it, with kaiser meaning emperor.

In classical latin everything is pronounced exactly like its written. If it was pronounced kaiser it would have been written Caiser. AE was pronounced [ae] or [aə] and A was pronouned [a]. So, Caesar = ['kaesar].
