Can Italian ducks understand spoken Latin? Let's see if the feathered descendents of Ancient Roman ducks in the Eternally Fowl City are able to comprehend my spoken Latin! In this experiment I use the Restored Classical Pronunciation of Latin deliberately; I had no intention of using the Italian Ecclesiastical Pronunciation which would have made it too familiar for the birdies spoken to.
🦆 Happy April Fools' Day! 🦆
🔊 If you like ducks, you'll love the audiobook I co-wrote with Irene La Preziosa, FABVLA ANATINA: luke-ranieri.myshopify.com/collections/frontpage/products/fabula-anatina-a-duckish-tale-in-latin 🐥
