0:07 Ah ah ah made me laugh your 'ecclesiasticus' spell attempt. Xbox One btw?

 

[louise f]

Yep it is not easy to say that name. hehe yes it sure is Xbox one

I know for me it's pretty easy and very natural to spell because i'm Italian but i understand how difficult is for others.
Basically 'ecclesiasticus' (latin) is very similar to 'ecclesiastico' (Italian) which means someone/something related to the Church.
I have the Xbox One as well but i prefer PS4 <3

 

[louise f]

i have no problem with writing it, but when it comes to speak it, it sounds terrible yes the ps4 is a good machine as well.

Its not that hard. Just read eklesiasticus (read it like its written) is the pronunciation as far as I know. Not twists and knots like some names lol

Haha, I love this discussion and it is actually part of my field of "expertise" . The latin word is derived from the ancient Greek word ἐκκλησία which is usually translated as "congregation" or "assembly". In the patristic area the meaning goes more specifically into being "church". Literally the word in Greek is made out of two parts, εκ "out" and καλεω, a verb meaning "I call". Its most literal meaning will therefore be to be "summoned" or something of that sort. In English and Norwegian (and I assume Italian also) we have the word
"ecclesiology" or "ekklesiologi" which is a theological term for the "study of the church".

Ecclesiasticus may also refer to "the book of Sirach". It is found in the Greek Old Testament (the Septuagint), but not the Hebrew one. Eastern Orthodox Christians (as myself) and Catholics will consider it as part of the Biblical canon, but Protestants will not. How of all of this relates to the tarantula in question however, I have no idea. I am really curious about that

Do you know if it's a male or female? If it's a female, you must post lots of pictures when it's mature. I would love to see pics of mature females of these species.

There's a Priest i know, a friend of mine (same age, more or less, he's 40, i'm a bit younger) who speak fluently Latin and studied ancient Greek as well of course here on Liceo Classico (then, after, University) so it's normal

fyi the male will mature and be long dead by the time the female is mature. This is a genus I think it would be very difficult to manipulate into making that work. Males can just grow and mature sooo fast. Now I've never had this particular species, but I have had many other Psalms.

Sweet t louise.
