400,000 don't make it a dead language! Thanks! I really do think that if there's one thing we lack as a nation it is knowledge of foreign languages. A good start would be to bring back Latin to the classrooms -- it has been shown that those studying Latin grammar etc. are better at Maths and definitely able to pick up Romance languages much faster.
