CVTV-4 - Latin: Lingua Mortua, sed Lingua Ecclesiae, Part 1

[homousios]

I guess learning Latin generates an appetite

[LDD86]

i HATE latin spoken with an american accent. it sounds best with an italianate/iberian accent.

[SneverusSnapers]

Latine loqui coactus sum. Those who understand that will know what i mean.

[eukako83]

In the laboratory( of the Medieval Latin laboratorium ) exist the latin or latin vocabulary : In vitro, in anima vili,sensu.

In the church: dogma, Kýrie(is greek, ok), Agnus Dei. In philosophy(Greek: philosophia, love of knowledge, wisdom," from philo- "loving" + sophia "knowledge, wisdom," from sophis "wise, learned." )praxis,doxa,episteme, a priori,a posteriori etc (of the Latin et ceteri:and the others)

with the extension of the english,the classical vocabulary be come universal.

Pronuntiatio ecclesiastica, excellentissime introducta.

Latin is not dead. Latin enters into another category of languages. Latin is just an obsolete state of present-day languages like Spanish and French as regards grammar, lexicon, etc. Latin is not dead; it simply changed.

Old Egyptian does is dead! Nobody speaks anything derived from that language. In Egypt Arabic is spoken. However, Old English, Latin and Ancient Greek are just obsolete states of English, Spanish and Greek. They're not dead.

[falxdacicus]

In fact,old egyptian is not dead.There is a offspring:the coptic language,spoken by the coptic(christian) minority in Egypt and used as a church language,too.

[enomisaia]

Latin is not dead! The fact is that

minds are hibernating!

[zeropeanuts]

Latin IS dead

[enomisaia]

Thank you for your very deep sentence zeropeanuts. It has a philosophical meaning.....mmh...You arrived to this conclusion after years of reasoning (minutes of reasoning were be enough) or do you write comments on youtube just because you do not know what to do? If you studied latin you could talk about its presence above all in my language and then in yours, english. Latin is not dead it is just transformed in latin languages influencing also the germanic ones. So latin still exist.

[zeropeanuts]

Latin is dead. French is not latin. Spanish is not Latin. Italian is not Latin. Proto-indo european is not English, Latin, German, etc etc. Words from latin live in English and many other languages. With that, I agree 100%. But that is not Latin. Latin is not simply it's words. A language is so much more.

[zeropeanuts]

I also never said anything about the existance of Latin. I simply said that Latin is dead. Latin exists, of course is does.

[MaBu888]

Latinitas, mi puer vel puella, vincit.

[enomisaia]

excuse me, but what is dead NOW doesn't exist, but latin exists so it is not dead.

ARISTOTELE

[MaBu888]

Latin DID NOT GENERATE THE GERMANIC LANGUAGES. Learn history.

[MobiusDragon89]

That's a vague comment. People who claim at all costs that Germanic languages don't owe anything to Latin are wrong.

English and German are not as close to Latin as Italian or French (examples), but no one can deny the fact that Germanic languages were significantly influenced by Latin (especially English).

I am Italian, and sometimes English is closer to Latin than my home language. The pronunciation has changed, of course, but the way many words are written has remained pretty much the same.

[MaBu888]

Lots of lonarwords from Latin in English indeed. They never were pronounced quite like Latin in their anglophonic content starting with 1066, I think, however.

[SneverusSnapers]

Yeah, i mean, i learn german and latin and there are some connections.

[MaBu888]

Latina lingua, mi puer, non est mortua... sed tu es in proximo tempore.

[UrNicknameSux]

lol...

[MobiusDragon89]

I love that kind of replies... good one, indeed!

[OboeDuck]

o. never tell my latin teacher latin's dead. he'll kill you.
