:Velim is closer to "I would like" the colloquial way a roman would say please is "amabo te" (I will love you) what's weird is that there's a comma splice. This should be picturam proxima velim; "I would like the next picture". Although, giving it some more thought it's probably intentionally done to keep the alliteration while also being just as stilted; "I Came. I Saw. I Would Like, the next picture. I Conquered." Imagine someone reading that with the same tone an inflection.--[[User:Lackadaisical|Lackadaisical]] ([[User talk:Lackadaisical|talk]]) 20:57, 1 June 2021 (UTC) | :Velim is closer to "I would like" the colloquial way a roman would say please is "amabo te" (I will love you) what's weird is that there's a comma splice.

:"proxima" seems misplaced: that's "nearest" not next, like Proxima Centauri. Probably should have used "postera" instead. | :"proxima" seems misplaced: that's "nearest" not next, like Proxima Centauri. Probably should have used "postera" instead. | ||
