"Sepulchra visito et sacrifico."

Translation: I visit the graves and sacrifice.

[teacon7]

I like that this sentence sounds a bit like something a legitimate classical Roman might say.

I can't be the only one who thought of JonTron when they read that.

[mrigaanka]

Yes. Finally some relatable content

[Septimus734191]

Am I correct in thinking the sentence means the sacrifice takes place AT the grave? Or is it simply describing two things that I do, not necessarily in the same place?

[radikian]

I guess it could mean both, depending on context.

[PERCE_NEIGE]

Yes, it probably means that. It seems logically linked because of the "and".

[CamillaCSN]

eeeeerr... ok

[hydrntc]

I spelled "sepulchra" wrong and I got it wrong. :(

[jtRvJ1]

Which case is sepulchra and why?

[Caversham]

Accusative plural because it's the object you visit. It answers the question "What do I visit?"
But sepulchra is also Nominative plural. "The graves". Sepulchrum is neuter.

[DonaldYTKA]

That must be the grave of my first lover and I visit her when I am old. Only her can make me sacrifice.

[RyanFrey6]

Would the phrasing be different if I wish to say "I visit and sacrifice graves"?

[Moopish]

Yes, more likely visito et sepulchra sacrifico.

Not that this makes much sense however.

[Caversham]

Not that it makes any sense, but purely grammatically could it not also mean: I visit and sacrifice the graves?

I-S-A-N-E EXERCISE :S

[RayWright13]

The phrase should be spoken more clearly
