Latin

A "dead language" that almost nobody speaks anymore. Would take around 2 years to learn it fully if you have a good teacher and practice daily.

Some languages are based on Latin such as Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Catalan, Romanian Etc...

Even some words in English are based on Latin words like the word difficilis which means difficult.

Some people find this language hard to learn, lets be honest... It is.

Teacher- Kids take out your Latin notebooks!

All the kids in my class- Ugh! Not Latin!

Latin

A lot like Elvis in many ways
1. It's dead
2. No one can seem to accept that

"Why do we have to learn Latin?
IT'S FUCKING DEAD!"

"Hey dad, I got an A* in my Latin A level!"
"Go do something worthwhile with your life, son. Like FRENCH!"

Latin

1.- Language, currently not in use.
2.- origin, yes, of other languages, such as Spanish, Italian, French.
3.- People from South America, Spain, France, Italy, etc.
4.- Latin people: hot-blooded, nice, cheerful, smiley, passionate & yes dammit! good lovers.
Lazy, corrupted? some people are, yes...but it is not an exclusive characteristic of Latin people...look around yourself...
5.- Me.

Latin

Dead language, but not quite, therefore it is a zombie language. Nobody really likes it but people teach it and people still learn it. The main job of the language is to kill people's GPA grades. Most people take the language unknowingly, thinking that they will sound smart, but it turns out they can not change the fate of being stupid.
I'm not trying to offend anyone - it's the truth.

Latin is the language of scholars.
