My daughter took 4 years of Latin in HS. You had to be recommended by your teachers to get in as a freshman. No nonsense. This was in the early to mid 2000’s. I think the teacher has passed by now. I do wonder if it’s still offered.

She never learned Spanish or French like I did, but as everyone knows, if you don’t use it, you lose it. You have to keep up with it. At least, that’s how it is for me. It would be nice to get a refresher, though.

I’ve lost much of my Latin vocabulary to speak it, but almost every word in the world (except Asian languages in characters) has some basis in Latin, so I can still discern a lot in languages I’m not familiar with.
