vilis ad bis pretii, grosso ad duos Preto
Drogn
I was just reading a WWW page with (alledgedly) Latin mottos, one of
which was "Vilus ad bis pretii" or "Cheap at twice the price."
This sugessted to me the (alledgedly) humorous bastardization
"Grosso ad Duos Preto", or "expensive at half Preto's prices."
Please note the the extent of my learning in Latin ed-enday on-hay
ee-thay oolbus-scay, so I probably got things very wrong.
