@alexglow@chaos.social @Legit_Spaghetti@mastodo.neoliber.al I think the word order to justify the "hoc" (it is an emphasis, otherwise it'd be moot to say anything at all) would be to have it first. And I'd probably not repeat it; all is spoken in a hurry.

@chrysn@chaos.social @alexglow@chaos.social @Legit_Spaghetti@mastodo.neoliber.al I have not dug out the original text but Latin tends to leave out pronouns where they can be understood from context. So I would have to reread the original English in context.
