Eu nunca vi fotos dos cristais de topázios imperiais exeto aquelas de qualidade inferior. A firma de Duarte & Bastos está atualizando o site deles. Quando tenho mais informações, eu colocar aqui pra você. Por favor, desculpe me minha inhabilidade de escrever em português melhor.
Abraços!

I can muddle through Italian and a few other Romance languages... but not very well. If you give me a few minutes with a sentence, I can often get about half the words and meanings.
That's what I get for taking Latin in high school. On the plus side, all the scientific names of plants and animals make sense to me!!
i didn´t had latin ,i wanted but not enough m8´s to open class
romance was talked by portuguese and arabian ,berberes(north africa),moçarabes and other countless people who came from orient. lol one language who made diferent people understand each other. i don´t know if we are talking about the same romance but.. it´s funny if someone today talks it
robert b,
as an alternative stone for imperial stone, how 'bout yellowish orange hessonite garnet?? imperial topaz is a magnificent gemstone, and very expensive and for a fraction of the cost of an imperial topaz are the grossular/hessonite garnet from the jeffrey mine in quebec and from sri lanka. hessonite does not usually receive any treatment either. (from what we have shared on hessonite and garnet treatment on the forum lately, i'll say "not usually treated" to keep clear of arrows)
here's two hessonite from the famous jeffrey mine cut by our fellow forum members
pt's hessonite:
roger dery's hessonite:
donna and john rhoad's (djrarestones) hessonite from sri lanka:
pedro-
can you speak pig latin? i learned quite a bit from medical terminology classes, which is derived from latin and greek. learned french in highschool and learned a little bit as well as some curse words in french. don't remember much of it all now-that was 25 years ago this year. lol!!

Perhaps. Interesting language, Romani... it's an Indo-Aryan language, so related to all the Romance languages at the level of Indo-European, but not descended from Latin.
Linguistics is fascinating, I nearly minored in it at college.
i see it´s just a matter of traduction.english traducing from romanic or latin language is romance. but i think the romance was a language used in past and not latin . but a moisture of catolic language arabian and moçarabe people,(the true heirs of visigotic(germanic origin people) and roman empire, they lived under influence of arabian and they always mantained his faith and costumes) , who all understunded.peninsula always had a lot of influences.
see a lot of influences the romance they all understunded, but all have theyr own language. of course there was a lot of distorcions in each other main languages, they lived and died toghether.they influenced each other.
