It irritates me to no end that the entire premise of this story is based on the popular misunderstanding of what a “dead language” is. Latin is used, is useful, is quite lively, and is beyond all doubt dead. And there are distinct advantages to making use of a dead language.
Why don’t educators take the opportunity to educate?
Rather than ‘dead’, I’ve been thinking we should start referring to it as a ‘gps language’ … it guides you through a lot of other stuff with ease …
I tend to refer to it as a zombie language: it’s dead but surprisingly lively, and it will eat your brain.
There’s a similar video from the same source, with a little vox populi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDWenN5pOaY .
It’s a pity that Latin isn’t called ‘Ancient Italian’. After all, nobody claims that Greek is a dead language!
