Is someone willing to type-up the text from the featured stone Colosseum tablet?

File:Rome Colosseum inscription 2.jpg

Someone contributed a very high quality photograph of a tablet from the colosseum to the [Wikipedia Commons].

At the time of my writing, the photograph is used as the cover image for the Wikipedia page on Latin.

The problem is, I cannot read the letters on the tablet. I can read type-set writing, but reading hand-written text and stone carvings is difficult for me.

Is anyone willing to insert a typed transcription of what was written on the stone Colosseum tablet?

Latin is still spoken in Vatican City, a city-state situated in Rome that is the seat of the Catholic Church.

I'm not sure that anyone now speaks it as a vernacular, even in the church. The Vatican's everyday language is Italian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7C:AA6B:F800:1FB:2BAB:D38F:A4F9 (talk) 08:11, 16 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
