classical latin or "modern latin"
    #18566033 -

which would be the better one to start studying?

i think classical sounds way cooler, but which would be more useful

i googled learn latin and found a website teaching latin used from 1000-1733 in official documents, there are also websites to learn classical latin, that the romans would have used

any ideas where to start?

any info would be appreciated, like what latin do organizations use such as the church or other people use

why even study it? Isn't it not a complete language? I thought I'd heard that some of it was lost somehow, something like that.

pretty much just the cool factor

plus if i ever got my own dog, id teach it in latin, the problem with me teaching my dog in english is i end up confusing the hell out of them, by using the same words in different situations

also the majority of other people couldnt give it commands

Useful for what? Personallly I think I wouldn't really have any use for understanding Latin grammar, but knowing more botanical Latin would be useful to me. Just knowing words in Latin also helps to understand the roots of many English words.

The differences are not big enough for a novice to worry about. Just start with the basics. Most methods use classecal rules for that. You can always specialize in church Latin later.

Modern Latin = French, Italian, Spanish, other Romance languages.

I learned Classical Latin for four years and translated The Aeneid. I don't know what this "modern" Latin is y'all're talking about. There's "neoLatin" which describes words for things like "airplane" and "car" in Latin. Really IMO classical Latin IS Latin. After you learn classical Latin you basically know vulgar or ecclesiastical Latin as well as like 90% of Spanish and Italian, 80% of French, Portuguese and Romanian and then a shit ton of other European languages with Latin-derived vocabulary (like English). I hope that made sense; Classical Latin is the Latin of native speakers of the language.

I'm learning Ancient Greek (totally different from modern Greek--one Greek guy I met didn't understand anything I was saying) so props OP on keeping the classics alive!

I don't know a ton about Latin but I think it was more just one continuous language as opposed to one that died and then was superseded by a namesake replacement for the region.

There would certainly be dialects unique to both region and time period, though!

im a bit confused on differentiating what case single or plural nouns are in

for example

dominus (lord)

domini is plural in Nominative and Vocative case but singular in Genitive case

so the only way to tell which one it is would be looking at in the context of the sentence?

i dont think im gonna make it too far trying to learn this off the net

I'm learning Russian so I can confuse and scare people when I get angry :lol:


Not really though, I have distant family in Belarus and Ukraine so hopefully one day I can go find them.


If any of y'all on here speak Russian, hollaaaaaa :wink:


As for Latin, I started taking a Latin class in Highschool, but there weren't enough students so they closed the class.
It would come in handy so I could understand the names behind all these plants I occupy my time with.
