Details: This poster shows a fake Latin phrase: "O sibilisi ergo, fortibuses in ero. Nobili demis trux. Sewatis enim? Cowsendux." This can also be read "O see Billy, see 'er go. 40 buses in a row. No Billy, dem is trucks. See what's in 'em? Cows and ducks."
Dog Latin or mock-Latin refers to the creation of a phrase or jargon in imitation of Latin, often by directly translating English words (or those of other European languages) into Latin without conjugation or declension. Unlike the similarly-named language game Pig Latin (a form of spoken code popular among young children), Dog Latin is more of a humorous device for invoking scholarly seriousness. Often, correct Latin is mixed with English words for humorous effect or in an attempt to update Latin by providing words for modern items.
