Salvete amici amicaeque linguae latinae!
Quid vobis de ludo follis rotundi (soccer - lit. the game of the round ball) ? Nonne eum televisifice spectabitis certamine omnium civitatum locum habenti ? Die Veneris certamen incipiet. Valde gaudeo quod certamen hoc anno in Africa locum habet. Spero ut omnia in pace fiant: Dum certamen locum habet, violentia nobis toleranda non est. Utinam simili modo cogitetis.
Valete!

Ludus de follis pedis (ivi rotundi) mihi non valde gaudet. In televisione nimis temporem occupabit, temporem vigiliarum perdet ac impensae societatium televisificorum ultra quam satis crescet. Nihilominus expeto Iafem temporem bonum cum oblectatio suo habere. Utique pedifollium non tanta crudele quam ludi gladitorii romanorum est.

Gratias tibi multas! Hoc iam vidi in ludo ;-)
Quid tibi, Levi, etiam certamen spectabitis?

I hate to barge in on this, but what did you guys use to learn Latin actively? I'd be kind of interested in that.
Gratias

Just start putting words together, as you would in any other language. Don't fear Latin.
Modo incipe vocabula conjungere ut facias in quacumque alia lingva. Noli sermone latina timere.

Yes but what books? I've had 3 years of high school Latin and I suck at it. I have a couple of audio (that's weird, I know) Latin courses that I found, and I've heard good things about Wheelock's Latin, which I can easily get.

De libris non aget, sed de positione mentis. Se non tibi verba lingvae latinae in mente delabuntur, tralationes simplicissimi utiles sunt. Vide sententiam tuam: quomodo "yes but what books" sermone latine dicere? Non necesse est tralationem consummatam facere, et tralationes dificiles anatema sunt, modo activitas importantissima est, et activitates nimis contortules impedimenta tibi sunt. Noli facere. Se legis textum, tibi roga "quomodo istud in sermone latine dicere?" ivi "quid de isto dicendum est?". Et simpliciter responde.
It is not a question of books, but about your attitude. If the Latin words don't stream automatically into your brain, then ultrasimple translations are useful. Look at your sentence: how do you say "Yes but what books?" in Latin? It is not necessary to make perfect translations, and difficult translations are forbidden - only the activity counts, and too difficult tasks will block you. Don't do them. If you read a text, then ask yourself "how can this be said in Latin" or "What can I say about this?". And give a simple answer.
