Slavery Roman Literature: Writers Latin Language Latin Alphabet Latin was brought to Italy about 1000 BC by Indo-European immigrants from Northern Europe. It began, as all languages do, as an isolated local tongue of a small territory on the Tiber River called Latium. As the people in Latium developed into an organized community, the city of Rome was eventually founded in, according to legend, 753 BC. In a little over a century, the Latin Romans would fall under the sway of Etruscan Kings. The evolution of Latin in its early development was therefore heavily influenced by these non-Indo-European Etruscans. Over time, it was also affected by the Celtic migrations and their dialects from Northern Italy and by the dominant regional culture of the Greeks. The Latin language is the bedrock of the language of Western Civilization. The Romance Languages of Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, and Romania developed from a hybrid version of spoken Latin and native tongues. Each would also be influenced in turn by other tongues, such as Slavic, Norse and many Germanic dialects. Without Latin, very few of the tongues we speak today would be possible or recognizable in their current forms.

More selections Latin, the language of ancient Rome, is the ancestor of the modern Romance languages. Beginning as a local dialect of a small village on the Tiber River, it spread in the course of history over a large portion of the globe. In the Middle Ages Latin served as the international medium of communications, as well as the language of science, philosophy, and theology. Until comparatively recent times a knowledge of Latin was an essential prerequisite to any liberal education; only in this century has the study of Latin declined and emphasis shifted to the modern living languages. The Roman Catholic Church has traditionally used Latin as its official and liturgical language. The Latin, or Roman, alphabet was created in the 7th century B.C. It was based on the Etruscan alphabet, which in turn was derived from the Greek. Of the original twenty-six Etruscan letters the Romans adopted twenty-one. The original Latin alphabet was A, B, C (which stood for both g and k ), D, E, F, I (the Greek

The modern Romance languages developed from the spoken Latin of various parts of the Roman Empire. During the Middle Ages and until comparatively recent times, Latin was the language most widely used in the West for scholarly and literary purposes. Until the latter part of the 20th century its use was required in the liturgy of the Roman Catholic church.

The Gospel was announced by preachers whose language was Greek , and these continued to use Greek , if not in their discourses, at least in their most important acts Irenaeus , at Lyons , preached in Latin , or perhaps in the Celtic vernacular, but he refuted heresies in Greek . The Letter of the Church of Lyons concerning its martyrs is written in Greek ; so at Rome , a century earlier, is that of Clement to the Corinthians . In both cases the language of those to whom the letters were addressed may have been designedly chosen; nevertheless, a document that may be called a domestic product of the Roman Church , the "Shepherd" of Hermas , was written in Greek . At Rome in the middle of the second century, Justin , a Palestinian philosopher , opened his school , and suffered martyrdom Tatian wrote his "Apologia" in Greek at Rome in the third century;

Extractions: Latin language It is very hard to write a short description of Latin, because of the huge massive of history and information about it. But in short the facts are the following: Latino-Faliscan subgroup of Italic languages occupied lands on the left bank of the Tiber river in the 10th or 9th century BC. At this time Latinians did not know writing yet, and were under the influence of Etruscans. Only in the late 8th century the Greek alphabet was modified to make the Latin one , and since then the historical development of Latin began. The earliest inscription found in Latin shows the archaic stage of the language similar to Oscan and Venetic languages. At this time, when Rome was found, Latin already had its structure with all complex verb forms and noun declension. The Classical Latin language took birth in the 6th century BC and gradually disappeared in the 4th and 5th century AD, becoming Popular Latin . In this period of time, Latin was flourishing and spreading all over Europe, was spoken in Asia and northern Africa. It assimilated other Italic languages, other Indo-European and non-Indo-European languages of Italy, France, Alps, Thracia, Illyria, many other ancient tongues. The list of languages Latin caused to disappear is very long. But it all was leaving deep traces in Latin itself. And in the new era the language of Romans began to suffer much simplification, changes and mutations, being restructured in Popular Latin. And as the Classical language remained as an official tongue of medieval Europe, Latin as a living language became extinct, used only in Pope's office in Vatican even now.

Learn Latin Latin Language Overview Share / Bookmark Latin ( lingua latina ) was the language of ancient Rome. It was the ancestor of the modern Romance languages (Portuguese, French, Italian, Spanish, Romanian, Catalan, etc.). In addition, Latin is the language of the Roman Catholic Church. While the liturgical use of Latin in Catholicism may be declining, an increasing number of students are learning Latin in schools in the United States. The Latin language may never again achieve its former status as the lingua franca of the Western world, but Latin continues to live in our midst. The Latin language belongs to the Italic group of the Indo-European family of languages. Roman soldiers spread Latin from the Tiber River throughout an Empire that spread from Mesopotamia to Spain. In later times, Catholic missionaries helped carry Latin to farther reaches of the world. The long history of the Latin language can be divided into periods: Early Latin, from the founding of Rome in 753 B.C. until 81 B.C.;

Extractions: Latin Language Latin was the native language of the Romans, who spread it petty much throughout their empire. After the collapse of Rome , the language "died." Actually, Latin didn't really die, it just turned into Italian, French, Spanish, and several other languages. Or, more accurately, it turned into dozens of local dialects, which gradually merged to form those more familiar languages. This dialect formation had been going on for centuries. Indeed, educated Romans had often bemoaned the increasinly incomprehensible versions of Latin which were developing in the provinces. The dialects evolved through the absorbtion by the local Latin speakers of words and grammar from the conquered peoples. Although the barbarians who overran the empire were mostly unable to impose their own language on the, by then, romanized locals, they did effect numerous changes in the local form of Latin. As a result, by Charlemagne 's day (c. 800), the changes had become so great that in much of Europe the common people could no longer understand sermons in Church, albeit that they were being delivered in what was once Vulgar (low class) Latin As a result, the Emperor decreed that henceforth sermons were to be in the "lingua latina rustica " (the country-people's Latin). In other words, preach to the people in the language spoken in the area. It is
