Semper Ubi Sub Ubi

No, it’s not real Latin, but it’s funny, in a juvenile sort of way. Easy words. Anyone know?

I do! I do!
I remember that from Junior High! Make sure they’re clean in case you get into an accident—like Mom use to say. :)

What's the Latin word for "clean"?
We can stick it in there then. Maybe we could just use white? Semper ubi albus sub ubi. Ok so the endings don’t match… so what!
I looked it up
I think it’s mundus or something like that. Latin can be fun. I enjoyed that class oh so many years ago!

I really liked it.
Perhaps because it was so mathematical. Maybe that’s not the right word for it. Formulaic?
I want the chance to learn it right this time. I want to memorize the tables of endings for real, not just short term memory to pass a test, and really know what it all means. I want to be able to construct interesting sentences. I was pretty good with the vocab, but not so great with the grammar.
However, I don’t know where to go to take Latin classes again, I doubt we have anything like that here in town. I could probably find something online, but I don’t have the self-discipline for learning that way. I would need to go to a scheduled class or something. So for now, it’s just a theoretical goal.

This seems to be a popular goal
learning (in your case, relearning) Latin, because the community college in my city is offering classes on Latin, alongside their Traveller’s Spanish, French and colloquial Mandarin.
If you find any sites online, please share them.
My hubby...
had to take a couple of courses, actually, I think that all of those that have some sort of doctorate in health care have to take it…
He blows me away with how he can pick apart words!
