the turnip | rapum |
After the bath mother goes to the market to buy cabbage, leek, and turnips. | Post balneum mater ad macellum brassicam, porrum, et rapa emptum it. |

the lentil | lenticula |
the wheat | triticum |

Mother cooks beans and lentils slowly, so that dinner may be simple but good. | Mater fabas et lenticulas lente coquit, ut cena simplex sed bona sit. |
One measure of wheat is enough for bread, but father says that more barley must be kept. | Unus modius tritici satis est ad panem, sed pater dicit plus hordei servandum esse. |
the garum | garum |
the turnip | rapa |
The turnips must be washed before dinner. | Rapa ante cenam lavanda sunt. |
Mother mixes a little garum with leek and turnips, but grandmother says that cabbage is better without garum. | Mater paulum garum cum porro et rapis miscet, sed avia dicit brassicam sine garo meliorem esse. |
The brother returns to the changing room to look for his book, because he left it there. | Frater ad apodyterium librum quaesitum redit, quia eum ibi reliquit. |
Grandmother says that when she was young, she often went to the forum to buy beans and barley. | Avia dicit se, cum iuvenis esset, ad forum saepe fabas et hordeum emptum ivisse. |
If the warm room is full, the bath-attendant warns us to wait a little in the changing room. | Si tepidarium plenum est, balneatrix monet ut in apodyterio paulum exspectemus. |
The boy, although he does not like cabbage, nevertheless gladly eats turnips with garum. | Puer, quamquam brassicam non amat, rapa tamen cum garo libenter edit. |
If the bath-attendant is not present, no one should take a scraper or ointment from the table. | Si balneatrix non adest, nemo strigilem aut unguentum e mensa sumat. |
the leek | porrus |
Mother buys a leek in the forum. | Mater porrum in foro emit. |
My maternal aunt says that beans with leek are better than lentils without salt. | Matertera dicit fabas cum porro meliores esse quam lenticulas sine sale. |
Father wants his son not to run to the pool, so that he may not quickly fall into the cold room. | Pater vult filium ad piscinam non currere, ne in frigidarium cito cadat. |
to get back | recipere |
The girl finally gets back the lost book. | Puella librum amissum tandem recipit. |
After they got their clothes back in the changing room, everyone returned home and praised the simple dinner. | Postquam in apodyterio vestimenta receperunt, omnes domum redierunt et cenam simplicem laudaverunt. |

Mother says that hands must be washed properly with soap before dinner. | Mater dicit manus ante cenam sapone recte lavandas esse. |
and | -que |
Father and mother sit in the atrium. | Pater materque in atrio sedent. |
Thus both a bath and a small dinner, if they are prepared properly, can be a help to body and mind. | Sic et balneum et cena parva, si recte parantur, corpori mentique auxilio esse possunt. |
