Well, there's been a lot about Latin in schools recently, so PM me A translation of this:

Caecilius est in foro. Caecilius in foro argentariam habet. Hermogenes ad forum venit. Hermogenes est mercator Graecus. mercator navem habet. Mercator Caecilium salutat.
"ego sum mercator Graecus", inquit Hermogenes. "Ego sum mercator probus. ego pecuniam quaero."
"Cur tu pecuniam quaeris?", inquit Caecilius. "Tu navem habis."
"sed navis non adest", respondet Hermogenes. "Navis est in Graecia. ego pecuniam non habeo. ego tamen sum probus. ego semper pecuniam reddo."
"ecce!" inquit Caecilius. "Ego ceram habeo. tu anulum habes?"
"Ego anulum habeo", respondet Hermogenes. "Anulus signum habet. ecce! ego signum in cera imprimo."
Caecilius pecuniam tradit. mercator pecuniam capit et e foro currit.
eheu! Hermogenes non revenit. mercator pecuniam non reddit. Caecilius Hermogenem ad basilicam vocat.

And from English to latin:
The judge enters the law court.

Judge: Who are you?
Caecilius: I am Lucius Caecilius lucundus.
Judge: You are Pompeiian?
Caecilius: I am Pompeiian.
Judge: What do you do in the city?
Caecilius: Every day I go to the forum. I am a banker.
Judge: Why did you come to the law court today?
Caecilius: Hermogenes owes me a lot of money. Hermogenes did not return the money.
Hermogenes: CAECILIUS IS A LIAR!
Judge: Who are you?
Hermogenes: I am Hermogenes.
Judge: Hermogenes, what do you do in the city?
Hermogenes: I do business in the forum. I am a merchant.
Judge: What do you reply? Do you owe money?
Hermogenes: I do not owe money. My friend is a witness.
Friend: I am a witness. Hermogenes does not owe money. Caecilius is a liar.
Caecilius: You, Hermogenes, are a liar. Your friend is also a liar. You did not return the money...
Judge: ENOUGH! You accuse Hermogenes, but you do not prove the case.
Caecilius: I have a wax tablet. Your sign is seen in the wax tablet.
Hermogenes: Oh dear! Oh no!
Judge: Hermogenes, you have a sign?
Caecilius: Look! Hermogenes is hiding the sign.
Judge: Where is the sign? Look! The sign proves the case. I convict Hermogenes.


First one with a complete translation wins.

I know the answers but I refuse to do your Latin homework.

Every post a new low.

I did this ages ago. Anyway I've got the answers in my textbook.

Part 1:

Caecilius is in the marketplace. Caecilius, a banker in the market place has. Hermogenes came to the forum. Hermogenes is a Greek merchant. merchant ship has. The merchant greets Caecilius.
"I am the Greek merchant," he says Hermogenes. "I am the merchant upright. I am the money I ask."
"And why do you the money you ask?", Said Caecilius,. "You acquire a ship."
"But the ship is not Here!", He responds Hermogenes. "The ship is of the Greeks. I do not have the money, I will. I am, however, an excellent man. I am always the money, pay it."
"" Look! " said Caecilius,. "I mix the wax with have for good. You ring do you have?"
"I am the ring, I have", he responds Hermogenes. "The ring is a sign has. Lo! I am the sign of the in wax especially."
Caecilius, the money is handing down. captured it, as the merchant the money from the forum is running.
Alas! Hermogenes is not returned. the merchant does he not return the money. Caecilius Hermogenes calls to the church.

That's because you used Google translate and it was wrong.

No-one expects full marks on their homework. You should get at least 8/10. Just change the bits that blatantly don't make sense to something similar that does.

I wouldn't have given 8/10 for the original copying out, let alone anything else. The capitalisation and punctuation are all over the place. Plus, you've missed that Caecilius's profession starts with a W.

Stop speaking in Latin!! It's like the times at school when I sat there between two people speaking Mandarin to each other and I had no idea what was being said.

Who am I kidding? I wouldn't go to a multi-ethnic school.

Caecilius is in the forum. Caecilius has a silversomething in the forum. Hermogenes goes to the forum. Hermogenes is a Greek merchant. The merchant has a navel. The merchant salutes Caecilius. “I am a Greek merchant,” says Hermogenes, somewhat predictably. “I am a probing merchant. I ask money.”
“Why do you ask money?” asks Caecilius. “You have a navel.”
“But it is not present with the navels,” responds Hermogenes. “It is in Greece with the navels. I don’t have money. I am probing to men. I always redo money.”
“Look!” says Caecilius. “I have wax. Do you have anul?”
“I have anul,” responds Hermogenes. “Anul has a signal. Look! I’m not the first to signal in wax.”
Caecilius exchanges money. The merchant captures the money and runs quickly away.
Eheu!
Eheu!
Eheu!
Eheu!
Eheu!
Eheu!
Eheu!



Hermogenes does not return. The merchant money is not reddited. Caecilius calls Hermogenes to the basilica.

INCORRECT

Edit: This means some of the words you were sure about.
