i could use some help with this. est in Latina Lingua
Aliae antiquissimae feriae erant multae numero, variae natura et auctoritate: Cerealia et Parilia (vel Palilia), hae feriae pastorum, quorum dea Pales erat, illae agricolarum, qui Cererem colebant; feriae Latinae, ubi omnes Latini Iovem in monte Albano colebant; Consualia, ubi equi pede celeres in Circo currebant; Lupercalia, ubi duo viri pers vias currebant, ridentes et omnes feminas quas videbant verberantes; Parentalia, ubi sepulchra totius Romae adoranabantur; et aliae. Pontifices soli illas omnes memoria tenere potuerunt, sed Publius aliique pueri Romani multas memoria tenuerunt, quod, studiis intermissis, ludere potuerunt.

(I think the moderators will transfer that request in the appropriate forum, i.e. the english one).
Does this be a school (or college) homework ? Because in such case you have to propose your own translation, and then we would correct it (that's the rule : students are supposed to do their works themselves
).
If not, I could translate it (... tomorow, now I need to
) from latin into french, and some other member will re-translate into english.

Les fêtes des Latins
Voici ma traduction fait en hâte:
There were many ancient festivities of various kinds and levels of importance.
Beginning with "Cerealia" and "Parilia" (or "Palilia"), the latter were celebrated by the husbandry, whose goddes was Pales; and the former by farmers - who worshipped Ceres.
In the "Latinae" festivities all Latin ethnic groups gathered to worship Jupiter on Mons Albanus (a mountain south of Rome)
On the occasion of "Consualia" horce races were held in the Circus (an oval course for races).
At Lupercalia two laughing males would run across the streets and whip any female they could lay their hands on.
"Parentalia" was the time when Roman people would rememer their death by congregating around tombs (from "parentes": ancestors).
In addition, there were minor festivities whose record was kept by "pontifex" priests.
But Publius and other Roman youths also kept most of them in mind in order not to miss a chance to suspend their study and seize any opportunity for a playful recess.
