Latin was the language of science for 1000s of years

2019-11-09 02:21:31 UTC

English is provincial French

2019-11-09 02:21:38 UTC  

En vino verdad (veritas is for children in modern spanish)

2019-11-09 02:21:41 UTC  

if you learn latin, you automatically understand a wealth of terms in biology (binomial nomenclature), medicine, law, etc

2019-11-09 02:21:48 UTC  

Barely any science happened in classical antiquity besides the greeks

2019-11-09 02:21:52 UTC  

canis lupus.....

id say latin is the most useful language you can learn

2019-11-09 02:23:33 UTC  

unless you're actually going to move to another country

2019-11-09 02:23:36 UTC  

Latin is for brainlets

2019-11-09 02:23:57 UTC  

I think German is a pretty chad language.

2019-11-09 02:24:00 UTC  

Romans basically did nothing except conquer a bunch of people and hold a bunch of labd

2019-11-09 02:24:03 UTC  

Seems easier to learn too.

2019-11-09 02:24:13 UTC

NEMO SALTAT SOBRIUS. untzuntz

2019-11-09 02:24:45 UTC  

Why learn dutch when youll never go to the netherlands nor like dutch books. Way more useless than the language with more literature than any other
