How to handwrite roman letters?

Only on SiT would anybody worry about making a mistake in Latin.

Wait a minute. If pro takes the accusative, why is it pro bono publico and not pro bonum publicum? What's up with prodative (ablative?) and pro accusative? I don't see a difference in meaning. Am I going to have to look this up or does someone know?

Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, I only know altar boy Latin:

Kyrie eleison.
Christe eleison

Dominus vobiscum.
Et cum spiritu tuo.

The Kyrie is Greek, Usher73. The only bit of Greek in the Latin Mass.

I still haven't gotten around to looking it up.

pro takes the ablative. Tibi and sibi are the dative of the respective pronouns of which te and se are both accusative and ablative.

are you sure they were allowed to be left-handed? In 60s my mother was also forced to switch (and would have done the same to my sister, but by then doctors had a different idea). She had handwriting classes, but when I went to school in 90s, they were already long abandoned. Teachers tried to make me write neatly, but in a few years it was only important that they can read what I write. We learnt everything in first grade, reading and writing, starting with capital letters, then lower case, and in the end cursive. We entered school around 7, now they start a year earlier, so it's probably spread over a longer time. It was all in public schools, there's not much else here even nowadays.

More desks:
Croatia (well, Austrian. it says that already in 1854 they started thinking about the proper and healthy shape of school desks)
Slovenia - beginning of 20th century, reconstruction
links to other school museums (second section), most of them have photos of desks and other stuff

I think we switched from pencil to pen when we started with cursive. Ballpoints were forbidden during the first few years, but not what was called "pens for lefties" (by Schwan-Stabilo I think), as they didn't leave dirty spots on paper and fingers.

My mother went to school in the 60s also and wasn't forced to become right-handed. My grandfather was, in the 30s. I know my mother went to catholic school, I suppose my grandfather did also.
