[quote=Anonymous]Took Latin in high school, in Europe. Benefits were that as I am a Slavic language speaker and was learning English, German and French, it helped me connect words and origins and understand almost any word in all of these as they are highly connected. I don't really know that it was Latin that did that, but I can read and understand even Scandinavian languages based on these three plus Latin, and while I can't pronounce the words right, I understand over 70 percent of Spanish and Italian as well. Today, I would say unless for medicine, probably worthless as kids here aren't learning foreign languages. I would concentrate on a living, useful language.[/quote]
