Doubt it. We neither a big corpus of recordings, nor even really a good source for vowel lengths of individual words, much less whole texts.

I know, the suggestion was to read some texts in translation first, I know, but this has got to be the worst choice for starting out. It wasn't even written in classical Sanskrit, so your course won't prepare you for it.
Personally I would start out with the Bhagavad Gita, but I haven't read a sentence of Sanskrit in my life, translated or not.

Here is a nice little video on the Hippocratic corpus and equivalent Chinese texts.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=u1RHCarlm5c&pp=ygUuaGVhbHRoIGFuZCBoZWFsaW5nIGluIGFuY2llbnQgZ3JlZWNlIGFuZCBjaGluYQ%3D%3D

It’s a general overview but also has some linguistics in it. The Chinese method of medicine could be considered more backwards than their Greek equivalent because Greeks distinguished between the world of “Physis” and the supernatural (On Sacred disease is a good text on this where supernatural elements are taken out of medicine) whereas Chinese held everything to be one ie Wu.

nice
they mention childbirth and female's relation with it but I'd imagine in the military too there would be some kind of natural affinity for the development of a proto-science of healing, I mean in the Iliad itself there seem to be such link when e.g Menelaos gets wounded in the thigh and IIRC some guy in the army is called who had received this knowledge which was divine yet it still involved pharmaka being applied to the spot
>>

>Menelaos gets wounded in the thigh

It’s interesting you mention this. There are three forms of soul/ spirit (psyche, thumos and nous). I believe he is wounded in his knee and one of them flies out but then returns? I read this in a book on Greek conception of soul and medicine and it explained that this form of the soul (psyche I believe) was tied more towards life in general rather than aggression/ spiritedness (thumos) or intellect (nous). Ie Menelaus wasn’t dead yet his Psyche left his body for a bit

It’s all sort of interesting

Maybe the reader just wants to engage with ancient Aryan culture instead of jeet myth.

This is a traditional Italian pronunciation general, as the Holy Father who is also ruler of Rome made standard in the early 20th century. I hear Reddit has great resources for people like you, you should post there instead.

It’s really baffling to me that I find Plautus easier to read than the average post in Latin online. My copy of Beeson’s medieval anthology arrived and I am greatly enjoying it. Medieval Latin ended up being far more readable than people made it out to be, I guess “bad Latin” is just straightforward writing half the time. 10/10. Glad to move on from Romans engaging in technically-not-sodomy and all the child-beating in LLPSI to more serious matters like King Arthur slaying giants. Medieval poetry is peak. Dies Irae and “drinking song” are the greatest Latin verse ever composed. It helps immensely to already have a background in religious and medieval-historical vocabulary because that’s like 75% of the “new” vocabulary.

he gets hit in the upper thigh next to where girdle fastened the body armor, the arrow doesn't pass through either but stops in place, then they call Machaon son of the famed doctor Asklepios(φῶτ’ Ἀσκληπιοῦ υἱὸν ἀμύμονος ἰητῆρος) who performs the extraction* and after sucking the blood out puts some "medicines" on it to stop the pain(φάρμαχ’ ἅ κεν παύσῃσι μελαινάων ὀδυνάων)

You may be right. Also about the translation thing. Latin online comes out so stilted. That's why I love reading the NT, because it's so crisp in comparison.
