Connie went overboard with her l337 Latin skills. Poor person. I'm sure they just wanted a translation, not an incomplete lesson.
Incidentally, you know you've been taking Latin too long when you're reading a book and you automatically find yourself trying to figure out the scansion. I can't even do that properly when it's in Latin poetry, much less English prose!
