Latin WotW 005

plūs vident oculī quam oculus - two heads are better than one

Salvē, ō amīce! If we put our heads together, we can figure out this Latin thing. Plūs vident oculī quam oculus. An oculus is an eye, hence the architectural term oculus, as in the Pantheon in Rome.

Eyes see: oculī vident, third person plural. Eyes see more: plūs vident oculī.

Than: quam.

Oculus: an eye.

Plūs vident oculī quam oculus.

Eyes see better than an eye.

How might you use this in context? Come up with a Latin example and write it below. Grātiās, in proximum!
