I've studied Latin for more then 3 years now, and I am still studying it. But since i have both Ancient-Greek and Latin, I am maybe going to stop with Latin, cause in the beginning it was useful and now not anymore, and next year i will have to choose to continue with either Ancient-Greek or Latin :roll:

I really have no idea.

But Latin was/is very handy! For:
- the difficult English words
- French, Spanish, which I have on school too.
- Italian, i don't have that, but i understand it a bit, cause of Spanish and Latin.
- Finnish. Not that that two languages are much similar, but there are some things like the cases, (vaikka in finnish there are much more cases) and not having particles. Really Latin helped me a bit with that! :) (ancient-greek too btw)

So :)

LATINA LINGUA LOQVI

I think it's good to study it , because it is like the english nowadays, an universal language

I have studied Latin for 3,5 years now, and I will continue it for 1,5 years. It's very good, when you look at heavy English texts.
