Not so sure of that. A friend, a former member of the White Fathers in North Africa, once related a situation at a train station in Europe in which he and somebody else (I forget who was lost) discovered that Latin was the only language they had in common.

OK, Sion, I'll concede on grounds of a technicality. After all, there are still Aramaic speakers in parts of Syria.

Church latin to be sure, but it’s not impossible.
