Uhm .. Sorry for double post, but it could kinda use the bump. And I do have something to add.
Easter in Norway - my family
When I was younger, and living with my family, we had this tradition that on easter morning we would search for eggs. Not neccessarily allways in the morning, though. Sometimes it was just in the afternoon. I think that was decided more like what our parents felt like. At first we were told that we were to go look for the eggs, wich our parents had hidden. This could be sometimes in the garden, or sometimes inside the house. When we found ours, we were allowed to open it and eat the candy inside. We had a specific egg also. One that was for each of us. But we weren't allowed to tell anyone if we found one of our siblings' egg. Later on, my mother decided to write notes in form of poetry to give us a hint of where the egg were. I think that was one of my last easters at home. One of the last where I looked for the egg, that is. And that's how we got our egg filled with candy.
As for other events througout the day, there wasn't much. We would eat dinner. Just some random a bit mroe fancy dinner. And that's it. We would also have loads of clementines everyone could grab and eat. And also we'd decorate the house with small yeallow chickens and yellow drapes etc. And that's pretty much how easter was in our family in Norway.
When it's about when I'm alone, I just grab some candy from the store, and eat it. Nothing more special than that =P
Do feel free to share your easter traditions with us as well =D

Since I'm out of class until September and I want to keep up with my Latin studies, would anyone else here be interested in putting together an online Latin guide/resource? It'll give other people the opportunity to learn Latin at their leisure and help keep people like myself fresh and familiar with the material.
Just throwing it out there. If anyone's interested, send me a PM and we can work something out.

Not sure at all, but it might mean something like:GoldenRaz said:
"Whether I love you all is if I rule you all." (Directly Translated)
I am not sure about "necne" I ahve never seen any verb or noun in that form. IT might be related to "necare" which means to kill, but I do not see how.
I recomend a second opinion.
Hope I helped.
I was thinking closer to neque/nec (neither/nor). That's just an altogether weird sentence though. "Is" could be the subject, but the verb is in the first person which means that's impossible:Vivaldi said:
Is vos amat, vos regit = He loves you, he rules you.
Vos omnes amo si vos omnes rego = I love you all if I rule you all.
I don't know what to make of "Utrum vos amo is necne, Rego vos". Sorry.
I am skilled in Portuguese and Italian language, may I be added to the council? Posso ser adicionado ao assembleia? Posso essere aggiunto al consiglio?
Are you sure those are Arabic/Perso-Arabic? I am having problems with those symbols.Svenparty said:
They resemble those two languages, but I failed to find them in the Arabic/Perso-Arabic Alphabet.
I have my doubts as to this sentence being proper Latin. I have never heard of "necne", although my knowledge of the language is not as thorough as I would like it to be. I agree with Vivaldi and Maet that it could be "neque/nec"; but then again, I find it hard to make sense of what is written there...GoldenRaz said:
I keep reading and it doesn't make any sense to me tbh... sorry
