Question of the Day

Answer today's AP Latin question, reveal the full explanation, then keep the streak going with a new question every day.

Non scholae, sed vitae discimus; itaque cogimur sanare vitia nostra.

In the sentence, vitia means

  1. lives
  2. vines
  3. faults (correct answer)
  4. men

Explanation: The correct answer is 'faults.' Vitium, -i, n. means 'fault, vice, crime.' The verb sanare (to heal) confirms that vitia refers to negative qualities that need correcting. 'Lives' (A) is vitae, which appears earlier in the sentence, making this a potent distractor based on similarity. 'Vines' (B) is vites. 'Men' (D) is viros.
