Marcus Tullius Cicero [January 3, 106 B.C. - December 7, 43 B.C.] made as his theme the phrase 'O tempora o mores' in his First Oration against [Lucius Sergius] Catilina [108-62 B.C.]. The phrase has been rendered into English as follows: 'Oh the times! Oh the customs!' For Cicero and Catilina were enemies. Catilins was involved in a conspiracy to overthrow the Roman Republic and its aristocratic Senate. Cicero argued that rebellious consuls previously had been eliminated on far less evidence than what was available against Catilina. And he berated the changed times, and the consequently less satisfactory ways of ridding him of this meddlesome conspirator.

No. But the Latin phrase in re ("in the matter [of]") finds its equivalent in the English word "regarding". The pronunciation is as follows: een ray.The Latin preposition in, although it is usually translated in English as "in" or "into", can also mean "against". A number of Cicero's orations have Latin titles of the form cited, where In has this meaning. This includes perhaps Cicero's best-known oration (it is the source of the quotation "O tempora! O mores!"), which is known in Latin as In Catalinam, and in English as "Against Catiline".
"O Tempora! O Mores" is believed to be the first full poem Poe wrote sometime around 1825.Poe's first published poem was titled "Tamerlane" in 1827.
The ancient, classical Latin language didn't require the inclusion of a verb in all situations. One such situation is the inclusion, or exclusion, of the verb 'to be'. The phrase here is such an example. For the English translation of the Latin phrase 'O qui coeli terraeque serenitas' is the following: O what [is the] calm of heaven and earth?
"Tamerlane" was Poes's first published poem; however his first written poem is "O Tempora, O Mores", which he wrote around 1825, but was never published in his lifetime."Tamerlane" is his first published poem in 1827; however he wrote the poem "O, Tempora! O, Mores!" about a year before he wrote "Tamerlane.""O, Tempora! O, Mores!" was never published during Poe's lifetime but it has been accredited to him.
This phrase is Latin for "O Lamb of God, who carry away the sins of the world."
Di Immortales is actually Latin. It means "O ye immortal gods" which can be used similarly to the English phrase "my goodness" or "goodness me."
The negative equivalent of the phrase "o o" would be "not o not o."
The classical Latin pronunciation is Eh'-ris (short i) kwod (short o as in "hot") sum (short u-sound as in "foot")
