We never know what will happened after that too. Oh, imagine if that was more than just 2 very diffirent Languages. We should also beware of keeping the sentences long enough & informed.

"Fuck, these brutes there just don't catch anything!" "Posthac Roma tributa vostra amplius non remissura est" ('vostra' is a dialect; common would be 'vestra') "As of now, Rome will no longer waive your tributes." "Varus exigit ab omni tribu pretium vicen(or)um boum vel quinquagenum ponderum frumenti centenarii." "Varus requires every tribe to pay the value of twenty cows or fifty hundredweights of grain."

In a movie made by English speakers, for an English speaking audience, it makes sense for the protagonists to speak in contemporary modern English. If those characters are, for example, ancient Romans, there is an implicit understanding that while the actors are literally speaking English, the characters they are portraying are not - that their speech is, in effect, being “translated” for our benefit. It’s even commonly called “the translation convention”. The makers of “Barbarians”, who are German, have done exactly the same thing with the speech of their protagonists - the Germanians - who are played by actors speaking contemporary, modern High German. The Romans speak Latin because (a) their scenes are far fewer in number, (b) they are not the protagonists, and (c) the fact that the two populations cannot understand each other’s language is narratively important. You simply couldn’t tell that story if the actors playing Romans were speaking the same language as those playing Germanians. Once you accept that the characters’ dialogue is being translated into your language, for your benefit, quibbles about the “accuracy” of whatever accent the actor delivers those lines in becomes completely nonsensical. It’s already the “wrong” language, so what the hell does the accent matter? In effect, it’s not the character’s voice you’re hearing, it’s the actor acting as a translator so that you can understand what’s going on.

Let me tell you about Classical Latin: the latin alphabet has only 5 vowels. so if they had a sound like _ë_ or _ö_ , linguists can't tell. another example: the city of Brixium is today spelled Brescia in italian, which in english orthography would be Breshia. The nail on the coffin is that Latin culture emulated Greek culture, like the Francophonie of 1800 - everybody just loved French, dei was saying "nation, revolution, reunion, direction, administration, Napolion" and "directeur, liberateur, provocateur, terminateur, influenceur". But the people don't say "nation", dei say "nay-schuhn", dei don't say "revolution", dei say "revuh-liu-schuhn". Imagine some doofus 2000 years from now, trying to speak English judging by the orthography only: I am God. English orthography is retarded.

As if they can pay in 20 cows, or they can pay 50 hundredweight of grains, but if they paid it in 10 cows and 25 hundredweight of grain they dont care. It's the same value. Now, if Segestes said that romans want 20 cows, AND 50 hundredweight of grains, that would be different. He just merely said, that this is the 2 things romans accept.

Segestes says, they want livestock and grains, he doesn't mean that they need to pay both 20 cows AND 50 hundredweights of grain, just that they want a certain amount of these.

The 2nd season was so bad, that it made the historical advisors quit. I spoke to one of the advisors, as I am doing living history myself and the stories he told me about the producer really made me angry. Basically it all boiled down to the sentiment, that the authentic stuff restricted the director`s creativity. How about not making a fucking historic drama but instead a fantasy show if you don´t plan on following the history???

These people would not have spoken proto-Germanic. By the time that this takes place in 1st century the once common proto-Germanic had already started branching and developing into various different Germanic language groups as Germanic people had spread over a wide area. Cherusci - the people in the video - were part of the greater Suebi tribal entity and what they spoke was the primary root of the coming High Germanic languages, which contains what is Standard German of today. Obviously they would not have spoken modern Standard German, but what they spoke has not been sufficiently reconstructed for it to be fully spoken in a production like this and in this regard having German actors speaking modern Standard German is easy to explain.

And yeah, probably the pronunciation we have today is not 100% correct, but we know that it was a phonetic language, and since all the modern Romance languages are pronounced similarly, except for different influences, we can assume how Latin would have sounded like, and we are not that far off from the real thing. Also, there actually are many other ways that helped linguists throughout the time to figure out what Latin sounded like, like some actual manuals, or ways that Romans described how their language is superior to others, and more. You have to do the research on your own. The point is that the pronunciation of English is so different from other languages, that a native speaker has a very difficult time, pronouncing a different language

Has anyone here commented on the fact that the riders didn't have stirrups? I've always found it fascinating that the stirrup didn't reach Europe until the 8th century. It had to have been very difficult for actors used to them to adapt to this scene. That's actually a detail most period pieces miss.

Wow didnt know about that peice of trivia. Personally, I learned to ride bareback so stirrups sometimes just feel in the way. Plus I saw a nasty accident where a horse rolled over on someone when their foot was stuck in a stirrup. So I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there was a lot of skepticism regarding stirrups when they first got introduced. Ultimately though, makes long rides far more comfortable and was an excellent invention.

I wonder why an open stirrup (more like a bicycle pedal) was never developed. Could support weight without trapping the rider's foot. I guess the trick would be it would be much more involved to manufacture, since a stirrup is just a loop of leather, but this would need some serious iron reinforcement.

Modern English derives ultimately from Old English (which was basically a dialect of Old Frankish) blended later with Old Norse and then Old Norman French (itself a blend of Old Frankish and Gallo-Latin) which led into Middle English (which sounded much like Modern Dutch) plus more borrowings from Latina Nova in the early Renaissance in the 16th century leading to the early modern English of Shakespeare and this evolved into today's various forms of modern English including the International English which seems to derive mainly from northeastern and midwestern American English which itself originates in east Anglia in the British Isles.
