Virent ova! Viret perna!

Virent ova! Viret perna!
Mihi placent, O Pincerna!
Virent ova! Viret perna!

Gratum tibi me praebebo.

In the realm of the "really important news for former Classics students" comes the story that two professors from the University of Kentucky have translated the Dr. Seuss classic, Green Eggs and Ham into Latin. Green Eggs follows such greats as Winnie Ille Pooh and Alice in Wonderland as books deemed worthy of being finessed into the ancient Roman language.

You can find the full story on Yahoo! here

If only they could translate it in Samoan. Then someone might actually read it.
