Salvete!
Here at the Latin Academy, we already have several jokes. Many of these jokes started when we played the Name Game (Ludus Nominum) and while getting to know each other. These jokes include accidental substitution of words for names and (sometimes failed) attempts to differentiate between people with the same or similar names - hence the earlier "two-syllable Kathryn" and "three-syllable Katherine" joke. As your resident bloggers - and all-around joke enthusiasts - we want to post some of the jokes and share them with you! Jokes to follow. Disclaimer: All jokes and pictures are used with permission from that person, and are meant in good fun. We don't have any hurt feelings here at the Academy :) Thank you!
