Kate's "How To Insult People in Classical Latin Without Being Discovered" - Vol. 1
Sometimes, it's just nice to be able to lob someone a nasty without them quite knowing what you're doing. To this end, I'll occasionally offer some Latin-based insults designed to let you be rather mean yet sound so impressively learned while doing so (hint: don't smirk!).
Here's your first lesson:
Inplicata inscientia inpudentia est.
Possible usage:
Discussing the president, such as when commenting on his "new way forward."
Translation:
His ignorance and his insolence are inextricably intermingled.
