Codename 	Quote (English translation) 	Quote (Latin) 	Notes
Agenda-based Approval 	A victorious army is one led by a victor. (lit. "Victorious troops with the victorious leading.")	Victores copiae victori ducente. 	Here, ducente and copiae are pronounced using the Ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation, which is likely a mistake, considering that Caesar spoke Classical Latin instead. It should be pronounced /ˈduː'ken.teː/ or [d̪uː'kɛnt̪ɛ] and /'ko:.pi.ae̯/ or [ˈkoːpiäe̯], respectively. Also, the sound represented by the letter v is incorrectly pronounced with a labiovelar [v], rather than the bilabial [w] used in Classical Latin.
Agenda-based Disapproval	The danger lies at your very doorstep, and you do nothing. 	Periculum adito tuo est, et tu nil facis. 	
Attacked 	Ambitious. You seek to conquer me before I move on you. I approve. 	Cupidus. Antea me capere me cupis. Plaudo. 	
Declares War 	The die is cast. 	. 	This is identical to Trajan's Declares War line, but the in-game subtitles are different.
Defeated 	? Then fall Caesar. 	Tu quoque? Nam Caesar ruat. 	The phrase in the subtitles is a quote from by William Shakespeare, Act III, Scene 1.wikisource:Page:Shakespeare_-_First_Folio_Faithfully_Reproduced,_Methuen,_1910.djvu/735 "Caesar" is mispronounced; in Caesar's native language of Classical Latin, it should be pronounced /ˈkae̯.sar/ or [ˈkäe̯s̠är]. It seems the voice actor pronounces it in Ecclesiastical Latin, which didn't exist yet.
Greeting 	I am Caesar, destroyer of conspiracies in the Alpine woods and the alike. 	Ego Caesar, qui Alpibus senatoque coniurationes aequaliter extinguit.	"Caesar" is mispronounced. In Caesar's native language of Classical Latin, it should be pronounced /ˈkae̯.sar/ or [ˈkäe̯s̠är]. Neither Classical Latin nor the Ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation seems to match this one. The voice actor also says senato(que) instead of senatu(que), which is a mistake because senatus is a noun of the fourth declension.
Quote from Civilopedia 	I came, I saw, I conquered. 	. 	The whole phrase is mispronounced. In Classical Latin, the letter v was pronounced like a w in modern English, and the letter c should be pronounced like a k in modern English. The correct Classical Latin pronunciation is /ˈu̯eː.niː ˈu̯iː.diː ˈu̯iː.kiː/ or [ˈu̯eːniː ˈu̯iːd̪iː ˈu̯iːkiː]. It seems the voice actor pronounces it like in modern Italian.
