How do you say “beer” in Latin?

The ancient Romans have a few words for beer: Zythum, a malt beverage the Egyptians drank (and the last entry in the OLD), Cerea or Caelia, a similar beverage drank in Hispania, and Cervesia in Gallia. Regardless of the word you choose, I’d add this one: delicious.

Cornelia, mother of the Gracchi, was Rome’s ideal of womanhood. In Kauffman’s painting, she rejects luxury for motherhood: a vivid image of the matrona Romana.

Circumlocution is a crucial language skill. No one can know every word but, if you know enough, you can communicate what you need.

This poster design supports learners in mastering this skill in Latin.
