Once I had an Italian client (this came about through a VERY strange set of circumstances).

I spoke Latin to him, and he spoke Italian (slowly!) to me, and we got along very well (once he stopped laughing at me.)

Boy, I'm impressed you can speak Latin - I lost that a long time ago!!! But I did recognize it and understood a lot when I heard it, even without reading the subtitles.
