You mean ancient Latin? hahahah I highly doubt anyone would want to improve in that since it's no longer spoken anywhere, unless you count the Vatican city. lol


everything is relative and contradictory ~

I like it because it's the root of most european languages, it does help in the learning of most euro languages. That and I like the ability to talk to a handfull of people in a way that no one else can understand...like the windtalkers or whatever..

I might be able to help you learn Latin. I was in Latin my Sophmore and Junior years of highschool. I only got to finish Latin I & II since it just got somewhat boring, so if u think i can help then alright.

Latin will only help you if you're a spelling bee champion or want to become a doctor, my dear.


Thanks for reading!

Yeah I took Latin I and II in highschool as well, problem is that I can't remember most of it unfortunately. But yeah I think together we can remember enough to get something.... And that is mostly true Yuna, I just like learning anything that intrigues me, hun. However, my main focus will be on learning as much Japanese as possible still.

I am in my second year of Classical Latin, it's not my favourite subject but I'm actually pretty good at translations. Anyways, what is your request exactly?

latin is not so common anymore but it can come in handy if u studie sciense becouse of the names of animals and chemistry are in latin. carl von linné started to name plants and animals in latin. good luck with the studies . hugs Ito

That's just because I'm always right.
Anyway, I'm going to need to know Latin because when I get into college I've been planning to work in the medical field.
So, hey, maybe I DON'T have to be a spelling bee champion to know Latin.


Thanks for reading!
