Title	La via Appia, Regina Viarium, era la via...
Text Submitted by 82elisetta	Source language: Italian La via Appia, Regina Viarium, era la via consolare sorta per collegare, in modo piÃ¹ rapido, Roma al sud della penisola. Fu fatta costruire da Appio Claudio censore nel 312 a. C. che ne realizzÃ² il primo tratto, spendendo tutte le risorse pubbliche.

Title	Via Appia
Translation English Translated by lilian canale	Target language: English The Via Appia, Regina Viarium, was the consular road destined to link, in a faster way, Rome to the south of the peninsula. It was started in 312 BC by censor Appius Claudius, who spent all the public resources just on the first part.
Remarks about the translation	The Via Appia is also called The Appian Way in English. Regina Viarium is Latin for Queen of the Roads.

Also, Roma is Rome in English. And Appio Claudio should be Appius Claudius and we call refer to this as the Via Appia, or the Appian Way.

	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	Hi Kafetzou: I think it sounds better now, however I'm not sure about "Queen Viarium" . It sounds better to me than "Queen of the roads", specially after the correction of Appius Claudius. But...I know you'll choose the best option.

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	Lilian, I think it means that the Appian Way was considered the main road, or Queen of the Roads. Don't you agree?

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	Actually, I guess that the problem is that there is Latin mixed in with the Italian, and I was wanting to translate that, too. I think probably the best thing is to leave the Latin in Latin and put a note in the comments box. Don't worry; I'll take care of it.
