"Speak the speech"

by Joe Riegsecker <joepye@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 6, 2008 at 09:57 PM

Someone has asked me about translating the English phrase "Speak the
speech," found in Shakespeare's Hamlet, into Latin.

Her try is "Loquor Oratio."

It seems to me that this is an imperative, and "oratio" should be
accusative, so would "Loquere orationem" or "Loquimini orationem" be
more accurate?

Comments?  Suggestions?
