Have you ever wondered what the S.P.Q.R. sign that is all over Rome means? Here is the answer!
Below is the literal English translation to help you match the Italian to the English.
Hey guys,
I'm here in front of the statue of Julius Caesar, along the Fori Imperiali, in the center of Rome and today I wanted to give you a piece of information on this sign right below this statue. The signs is (says) S.P.Q.R. But what does S.P.Q.R. mean? This is not the first time you'll see this sign. In fact, if you ever walk around the streets of Rome, you will find it everywhere. S.P.Q.R. is the Latin acronym for Senatvs PopvlvsQve Romanvs, that in Italian means The Senate and the People of Rome. I hope that with this little detail you have learned something new so that the next time you are in Rome, you can brag about it with all of your friends.
Thank you and I'll see you guys next time!
