| | Latin language, alphabet and pronunciation |
| | Latin terminoloy is used extensively by biologists, palaeontologists and other scientists to name species and specimens, and also by doctors and lawyers. | | | Modern Latin was used by the Roman Catholic Church until the mid 20th century and is still used to some extent, particularly in the Vatican City, where it is one of the official languages. | | | The earliest known inscriptions in Latin date from the 6th century BC and were written in various versions of the Greek alphabet, which was brought to to Italy by Greek colonists. |

| | Today -- Nobody speaks Latin well, and few people can write it, but lots can read it. | | | Mid 14th century-- The Black Death kills a lot of people, including students, professors and other people who live in crowded, unsanitary cities. | | | Few people in the west outside of monasteries can read. |

| | One might question whether it is really necessary to convert ae and oe. | | | Persons whose native languages use articles must realize that few people in the world use articles in the same way that they do, and many speak languages without articles, so that for an international auxiliary language, it is preferable not to use articles at all. | | | The Master Language also has partial, although not complete, part of speech marking. |

| | Why Latin? |
| | TAXACOM Internet discussion group archives for October and December 1995 include threads on Latin descriptions--if anybody would put them on the Web again. | | | The idea is that Latin, a faint echo of Roman imperialism, does not stir up such political passions as English would, the language of today's anglophone imperialism. | | | Linnaeus and others strongly recommended that botanists use Latin, but there was no requirement that they do so, even in the first formal set of nomenclatural rules, de Candolle's Lois of 1867. |

| | Moreover, in the Western world, Latin was a lingua franca, the learned language for scientific and political affairs, for more than a thousand years, being eventually replaced by French in the 18th century and English in the late 19th. | | | It is said that 80 percent of scholarly English words are derived from Latin (in a large number of cases by way of French). | | | This page was last modified 03:41, 11 October 2005. |

| | Latin became the language of the Western Church, focused on Rome, beginning well before the emergence of Christianity as the dominant religion in the Roman world. | | | This was particularly true for the spoken language of the uneducated, which already in ancient times incorporated terms derived from Greek, Celtic and later from Germanic languages. | | | Along with the Greek Fathers of the Church, the Latin fathers contributed to the definition of Christian doctrine. |

| | MSN Encarta - Latin Language |
| | Latin is a member of the Italic subfamily of the Indo-European languages; among non-Italic Indo-European languages, it is related especially closely to Sanskrit and Greek and to the Germanic and Celtic subfamilies. | | | The Latin language was not native to Italy but was brought into the Italian Peninsula in prehistoric times by Italic peoples who migrated from the north. | | | Within the Italic languages Latin, Faliscan, and other dialects formed a Latinian group distinct from other Italic languages, such as Oscan and Umbrian. |

| | Latin Language |
| | This dialect formation had been going on for centuries. | | | Although the barbarians who overran the empire were mostly unable to impose their own language on the, by then, romanized locals, they did effect numerous changes in the local form of Latin. | | | Medieval Latin would probably have made Cicero gag had he had the misfortune to encounter it, but he was a bit of a snob anyway. |

| | Latin survives as the official tongue of Vatican City and as the official language of communication of the Roman Catholic Church. | | | Until the 1960s, it was also the language of the Roman Catholic liturgy and is still so used under certain conditions. | | | Latin was first encountered in ancient times as the language of Latium, the region of central Italy in which Rome is located (see Italic languages). |

| | Latin had prepositions with ablative and accusative nouns, several postpositions were used with genitive nouns. | | | Latin had all eight Indo-European noun cases but they all had different ending only in singular of o-stems masculine. | | | At this time Latinians did not know writing yet, and were under the influence of Etruscans. |

| | Why Study Latin? |
| | The sole language of the Catholic Church was Latin; all scholarly, historical, or scientific work was written in Latin. | | | As the centuries passed, Latin continued to be the international language of all educated men and women, living a parallel existence with the different national languages, such as Spanish or French, which were growing beside it. | | | Because no other language and no other city have had so much influence--and for so long a time--on our own culture. |

| | french language history in france -- from latin & provencal |
| | This “French” language was in fact one of a number of different languages descended from Latin that were spoken in various parts of post-Roman Gaul. | | | It is spoken as a first language by 51 million people in France and Corsica; in Canada by 7.2 million; in Belgium by 3.3 million; in Switzerland by 1.2 million; in Monaco by 17,000; in Italy by 100,000; and in the United States by nearly 2 million (primarily in Maine and Louisiana). | | | As a result, a written codification of the evolving spoken language was found necessary for current legal and political use. |

| | Why Speak Latin? |
| | While some would argue that Latin, unlike French, Spanish or German, is a 'dead' language, and that there is therefore no point in learning to speak it, NAILLS believes that the concept of 'living' and 'dead' languages is founded on a misconception of what languages are. | | | In the past several centuries, millions of people have learned Latin and used it effectively to write and speak with one another, in spite of the fact that none has been able to claim it as his native tongue. | | | Hence, the question whether Latin is dead or living is simply a question of how people treat it. |

| | Latin lacks somewhat the variety and flexibility of Greek, perhaps reflecting the practical nature of the Roman people, who were more concerned with government and empire than with speculative thought and poetic imagery. | | | Copyright © Kenneth Katzner, The Languages of the World, Published by Routledge. | | | Latin was brought to the Italian peninsula by a wave of immigrants from the north about 1000 B.C. Over the centuries the city of Rome rose to a position of prominence and the Latin of Rome became the literary standard of the newly-emerging Roman Empire. |

| | Another reason would be to read ancient writings in their original language or because translating them is desired. | | | Maybe some folks learn the Latin language because there are curricula publishers out there writing and marketing Latin programs--kind of a *if we build it, they will come* type of thing. | | | And once the market has been created, it needs to be sustained and is sustained partially by people that keep defending their position on why the Latin language needs to be learned--possibly. |

| | Latin is known from as early as 500 B.C., in and inscription on a gold fibula or safety-pin, which reads: | | | But what we have of Latin literature is a small fraction of what the Romans of the Empire had to read. | | | Perhaps the sad message which come from this, is: Read your Latin Classics carefully and slowly, because there aren't any more. |
