Do I speak it? No.

Do I understand my church’s liturgy well enough to understand what is being said when in the mass? Of course.

I am able to enjoy opera in a language I don’t understand. I certainly can understand and appreciate liturgy in Latin since I know the mass. It’s not very hard.

My wife never took a day of Latin in her life. Ever.

We go to Latin Mass every week. You give her a passage of Latin and she will get the basic jist of it.

People do learn things, you know.
