Hey guys, I'm looking for some good Latin programs/lessons, what do you recommend?
Also, how would you translate new words into Latin, such as computer? Is there a modern day Latin dictionary?
Thanks!

You don't translate anything fag. Latin you ONLY USE to go from Latin to English, to read classics. If you want to chat, learn Italian or Romanian or Spanish or French or fucking Arabic if you want.

If you look at the latin wikipedia you can find the word for computer is "computatrum" (a "short" name not liked by some) or "instrumentum computatorium" (word by the vatican - too long)
So there are people trying to translate new words.
try this book I bought recently: "Lingua Latina: Pars I: Familia Romana". I've already learnt a lot from it and I haven't gotten bored with it yet which is unusual for me. Part 1 of 2 containing 35 chapters and is completely written in Latin but starts off with simple sentences that you understand through illustrations. At the end of each chapter you get a grammar section and exercises.
Also, I found it as a pdf file first.

paedophili "instrumentum computatorium" praescribiunt? asinini sunt.
par mihi, "archa [programae]" est.
TRANSLATION:
The pedophiles [Vatican] prescrive "insblablabla"? They're a lot of donkeys.
For me, it's "box [of programs]".
