Oh, with all due respect, please stop making things up. Latin was the legal language and the language of sciences (medicine, mathematics, you name it) and of literature.
Native languages were good enough for simple poetry,l but not for serious prose. Luther actually created German literary language by translating the Bible. Until then, ordinary every-day German could not express complex, spiritual concepts. English was not a literary language until the Norman invasion and introduction of mostly Latin vocabulary in it.
Even so, the language of the law and science as well as religion remained Latin. The advantage of that is obvious in that some kind of a lingua franca always existed, whether it was Aramaic, Greek, Latin, French, or English, to name onyl some.
Most people don't speak English in Hungary, or Poland, or Bulgaria, but you can be certain that those who are in medicine, or science, politics, etc. do. So, we could then say that America is holding English locked up when the majority of the people in second or third world countries don't speak it or understand it.
Like I said Kosta.. or the highly educated.. Course they were few and far between.. Royalty or the Wealthy which were usally the high born(Royalty and Servants/Bureaucrats) in some aspect.. The poor which were almost everybody was not educated "that way".. They indeed were schooled in the trades, farming, and what we call blue collar today.. Even in Italy they did not "speak" latin.. but Italian quite different from Latin..
Scripture was LOCKED UP in Latin.. as fully as secular law was locked up by the RC Kings and sycophants..
