BTW: Latin is the gutter language of the Roman Empire.

Latin is a lovely language it is THE language of the Church. It is excellent in its precision, having avoided the machinations of modern lingiusts who have introduced ambiguity & wordiness into it. I refer you to the Catechism of the Catholic Church which speaks lovingly of Latin. I studied it for two years in high school and will encourage my children to do so....but such intellectual endeavors may indeed be wasted on you.

I have an MA and an MBA you snobbish Jebbie wannabe! The MA required me to master another language, and no, it wasn't Latin, a language that should be allowed to die.
