Latin is a dead language... why would you devote your life to something that doesnt exist? :)

for your information, latin is NOT dead..and it doesn't exist?? where have YOU been?? if it didn't exist no trace of it would be here! haven't you ever heard people say "status quo" or heard of "summa cum laude"? english and other languiges comes from latin! sometimes i can figure out words from their latin roots. bands i listen to have latin in them and i like translating it..i like reading real latin from thousands of years ago..it's pretty amazing..go to rome and you'll find latin (and old churches too)..i like the thrill of being able to translate it. even movies have latin in them. latina est non mortuua!

It's one thing to day Latin is dead, but to say it doesn't exist?? Silly people haha

Yes, something that doesn't exist is dead, yet something has to exist to be dead. Who the hell is PokerAddict? He/she must be living under a rock. |=

Latin is a great language to study in order to learn how the natural evolution of a language can really mess it up. Latin was never spoken aloud, which shows in how efficient and precise the language is. Hence, it is a great way to understand why one man says "black" and another says "gray".
