There exists more than one name for many countries and languages. Check back here to this post (which I will be editing, so give it a like! 😊) in a few days for a more complete list of nationalities and language names. In the meantime, consult the dictionaries I discuss here: th-cam.com/video/ZHBknn3rIuo/w-d-xo.html
Living languages (at least the ones recognized as official languages) adopt names for countries in a more or less arbitrary manner (why don't Italians call Germany Allemagna, or Greeks still call France Γαλλία?), but they end up standardizing that name, either via some centralized authority or by the frequent usage of the term. This is a problem with modern Latin, a lot of names don't appear to have a de facto standard, so it feels like anything goes.
@@erickr404 This is why I dislike the use of Svetica, because the region has historically been known in Latin as Scandza or Scandinavia, or even Scania, I mean even using a direct translation of the region as Periculo Insularia would be a better name. I mean Gaius Plinius Secundus used Scandinavia. And let's be frank, Sweden isn't a nation, it's a hellhole, every citizen of Sweden, speaks their own languages, yet we're all forced to call ourselves Swedish because no one knows what Dale or Scane or Bonn(not the German city) is, and as such we're all forced to live in this hellhole of oppression. I mean a city 100km away from me, is literally called Dangerous sandbank in old North Germanic. Skanör, and below that city lies Falsterbo, a town with reefs and an extremely shallow ocean.
Man! I love your work! is a wonderful and heplfull thing to watch, actually I'm studying Spanish and Classical Philology and I'm using the "Lingua Latina per se illustrata" books, I tank you for your work! Congratulations!

@@theflyingfox8204 I'm currently learning it, and, whilst I am still in infancy stages, the use of Independent pronoun 'Anak' (i.e. jnk = 'I') and the toponym 'Kumet' (i.e. kmt) for Egypt lead me to believe he is definitely using a reconstruction of Middle Egyptian.
I thought this one was especially good! During the first half, I assumed that the video clips were all stock clips of people from various countries demonstrating greetings in their native languages. I was in for a wonderful surprise in the second half! It all made for a very entertaining and fascinating way to do a bunch of reps of a few phrases about geography and language. Very cool! Grātiās tibi agō.
Your channel is by far the best latin channel on YT. I'm Brazilian and I love learning about Latin and romance languages, although I can only speak Portuguese and Spanish. My humble congrats.
This was so heartwarming! It's a nice answer to those who say that Latin is useless to study, as it is a "dead" languages. Well, if that's the case, then are we zombies?! I am thinking to go to University and learning Latin seems such a cool thing to do, but I'm really scared that I won't find a job (I want to be a teacher in Taiwan, so... might be kinda hard). This video made it 10 times harder to choose not to study Latin haha! Gratias tibi ago, hac pellicula bellissima'st!
王成珍 왕성진Fabio grātiās prō commentāriīs tuīs, ō Fabie! Yes, it can be dicey to teach. But it doesn’t mean you can’t learn it really well. Only some of the Latin speakers you saw in the video are teachers. Others are enthusiasts. 😊
I would encourage you to study Latin (and Greek if possible) in college! I did that and had no problem getting a job teaching. But a degree in Classics is also a great foundation for other areas of study. After teaching Latin and Greek for some years I got an MA in Applied Linguistics, which allowed me to get a teaching job in Alexandria, Egypt.
Latin is a dead language technically, but it is very much required to learn or at least comprehend for any history enthusiast or Scholar. It's importance in linguistics and anthropology is equally as high. To make it short, if you want to have a career in humanistic studies, you'll probably need to learn Latin sooner or later.
There are lots of ways to learn a language without having to major in it in college. Your best bet will be reading Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata, watching channels like this one, and connecting with other Latin learners so you can practice together. Dicendo dicere discis: you learn to speak by speaking. Best of luck!
I remember reading that Michel de Montaigne parents exclusively spoke Latin at home, so Latin was his first language. He learned french as his second language.
Se supone que para revivir una lengua debe haber un hablante nativo....si es como dices que padres enseñan latin a sus hijos como lengua prima....se supone q es un idioma vivo?
This style of teaching is so valuable. A non Latin speaker can watch this and because it is spoken in such an intuitive way, begin to piece things together while they listen. Though I have no ability to speak Latin, I found I was able to follow along and understand what was being said. You really feel yourself learning here, you begin by attempting to translate in your head, but by the end of the video you have some degree of inherent understanding of what is being said, though you may not consciously comprehend it. It is very reminiscent of the way that children pick up on languages when they are young and I think it's such an underrated form of learning. It's so refreshing to see language learning made this intuitive, and I thank you and pray you continue to make more videos like this!

@@livedandletdie I don't speak chinese but the R I hear when listening to it is like the English r, what I mean is the rolled r you find in all romance languages except French.
Wow this really helps my Latin, this has to be one of the rest resources I've found, granted I'm new to Latin. However since I already speak Spanish and English I have noticed that these languages help in understanding the language significantly.
Salve!!! Ego civis Romana sum! I was born in Romae Caput Mundi in 1969, and, I have ever been living in Romæ since I was born. I am very glad to inform You that, when I was a little child, I learn to spoke the local Roman language, that is in use, here, in Latium, a region in the central Italica Peninsula, on the tirrenian coast, where Romæ, Caput Mundi, took Her Origins. Ancient Romains were used to call this region " Latium et Campania ", including Neaples et Romæ in the same central region of the ancient civilized world. At the primary and secondary Pubblic School, here in Rome, the Italian Authorities, that have a barbarian origin, don't permits the teaching of the ancient Latin Language. And now, I have to learn Latin Language, my truly Mother Tongue, by myself ! And this is very difficult ! When I was a little child I, and the other children, used to say "ÈCCÉTE!" or "ÈCCÉTE QUÀ!" that means both "here you are!". But now! Tanks to my origins, here in Rome, where I grown up, I can have the confirmation that Your Pronounciation of Ancient Latin Language is correct!!! I want to tell You "GRATIE"!!! GRATIE for all the "Optimus Work" You are doing with the Lingua Latinæ !!! Ego civis Romana sum! Nos Lingua Latina loquuntur ergo Nos Civis Romani Sumus! Ave, Scorpio Martianus!

I ordered Lingua Latina so I'm coming to the party. I may be a bit late so hold that train! Scientia Vincere Tenebras. Please do share any good online courses for classical Latin
Thank you, Luke! This video made me start refreshing my Latin after almost 35 years. What a great motivational video! I am working with more than ten languages, but Luke, you are exceptional! I made it to your Hans Olberg hommage "Lingua Latina per se illustra pars 13" so far, just from the flow of this above video. Yes, it has lengths, and I love it like that. There are so many people in there and each one is unique. Apart from that I watched at least two hours of yours because your work is just so amazing. I didn't know there is something like that, at all. There are some other masters, you point to them in some of your videos, and again: Thank you! I had Latin for seven years in school and it was terrible. It was exactly the opposite of your work. My initial re-interest in Latin comes from reading Dante's Inferno, it is half the way there, so to speak. But this Latin experience was not expected, it just captivated me! Also like your Greek bits, will get back to that if life span allows. Many many friendly regards from Germania. What an outstanding and memorable motivational video! And yet so new!
When the ad started playing in English, I was confused for a moment and couldn’t understand what was being said. I seem to have been thinking in Latin. This is a good thing.
Thanks so kind of you, Elliot! I wish I could construct a narrative and have a cast of characters and actors and crew to hire. 😅That would truly equal the great French in Action. I shall endeavor to do my best with the generosity of those lovely guests you saw!
Mindblowing!! We are all unite, great message of peace, specially those days.. thank you for your work!! I am also surprised, the latin pronounciation is somewhat different if compared to what we are taught at liceo classico in italia.

Me gusta la iniciativa que tú tienes para enseñar el idioma latín clásico a tus seguidores. Es poco accesible aprenderlo por otro medio dado que los cursos que son pagados resultan caros en precio. Yo quería aprender francés en un instituto, sin embargo, el precio es la mitad de una remuneración de un trabajo común, ese lujo lo puede pagar una persona que vive para sí misma, sin mayores responsabilidades y que a la vez tenga el hábito de ahorrar dinero. Pero le pedí a mi padre que me comprara un diccionario y después un libro de gramática en francés, y si bien no es lo mismo que clases presenciales, yo soy autodidacta aprendiendo, así que con la ayuda de estos dos libros he aprendido la gramática, fonética, y las palabras. A veces me imagino cómo sería implantar el latín en una nueva generación de personas desde bebés, de este modo el latín volvería a ser una lengua viva.
Escribo en Inglés porque mi Espanol es malo. In Italy we have a good chunk of high schools teaching Latin, although not at a fluency level (think old scholar monk painfully translating obscure writings consulting a dictionary). If you are cool with such a method of studying you can look up "Latin grammar" on Google and one of the top results is a book by Bennett which looks fairly similar to the texts we used at school. If you get through that and translate some classics with a dictionary (also available online) you have basically the entire "classical studies" high school Latin course as I had it. Granted, do not expect to be amazing like Scorpio at the end of the endeavour, but I am still (7+ years after translating anything from Latin) able to understand fairly well all his videos. I do not expect most Latin courses to take you further than that anyway unless the rest of the world does things very differently from Italy (university Latin courses are more of the same with a lot of literature, but still no speaking).
Rookie64v unfortunately, the Classics education in Italy is shockingly poor. The methods used there are mostly stuck in the mid-20th century. While the grammar-translation method still persists outside of Italy, it has been replaced by Comprehensible Input methods in many schools, and other such direct methods will be the norm nearly everywhere sooner than later. In Italy GrecoLatinoVivo and Vivarium Novum are famous for being pioneers of CI in Italy.

Being Colombian and speaking Spanish as a native language, I have a soft spot for Latin. I feel like I want to understand the history of our language and it’s relationship with the rest of European languages with Latin, so I greatly appreciate this content! It’s awesome! Fun fact: we still use “vale!” In Spanish all the time, though it’s meaning is a lot broader nowadays, and it mostly means “ok!” or “sure!”

Salvete! Mihi nomen est Joshua. Ego sum Batavice sed me habito in Asia. Nunc studeo multae lingae. I hope you understand what I meant to say. I originally come from The Netherlands but I'm teaching English in Indonesia. At the moment I'm trying to learn many languages, in alphabetical order: Castellano, Catalan, French, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Latin and Mandarin. I started following you after the collaboration video where you tried to find out how well speakers of Latin languages understand actual Latin. I was very surprised how well I did and immediately subscribed to your channel. I want to incorporate a Latin motto in a family crest design that I'm working on but I haven't been able to find what I need, so I decided to learn the language for myself and then I just got hooked. The most trouble I'm having is getting the endings right, the grammar seems pretty complicated but I'm amazed to see that I was able to follow the content of this video without any problem. Thanks for the amazing videos you make and the motivation I get from them! In case you were wondering the motto for the family crest is "Never forget where you come from". So far I have "Numquam obliviscar ex qua venisti" but based on what I recently learnt I think it might be better to say "Numquam obliviscar ubi venis" but I'm not sure... To all of you here, it's so wonderful to see that this beautiful language is still very much alive and spoken and loved across the globe. Very nice to meet you all!

Schöne Grüße aus Berlin und danke für deinen wunderschönen Kanal! ❤️Ich würde auch gerne Latein lernen. Meine Muttersprache ist Spanisch und ich kann auch perfekt Englisch. ☺️ Liebe Grüße, Enmanuel.
Luke, I'll be straight with you: you have the same energy and passion as my Latin professor in High School: she was a middle-aged woman that really cared about the quality of the lesson and made sure everybody was on the same page. Most of the time, everyone was. Now, where the hell is my declinations cheatsheet again...? :) "In Germania lucuntur Latine? Sic!" [*Angry Augustus noises*]
My secondary school Latin teacher was the same, she was a really good teacher and Iʻve never lost my love for Latin since. It just went dormant for a few years!

Gosh! The tour around the world of places where Latine is loquuntur is - perhaps - overkill. But it serves the purpose of introducing the country names, languages and the expression, "Do you speak...?" A brilliant beginners course.
I highly recommend you speak about Latin influence for example in English. I guess you love Latin because English, your maternal language, has several words that originally come from Latin such as some plurals like cactii, data, criteria, and this fenomena doesn't work same way in (ironically) romanic tongues like my Spanish (except in Italian, I guess). Honestly I love humanities, I love hard Greek and Latin, and never think Latin is a dead tongue, it's alive in almost all languages!! It's great what you're doing!!

R does exist in Standard Chinese alongside L , After all the word for meat is Ròu.
@@livedandletdie I don't speak chinese but the R I hear when listening to it is like the English r, what I mean is the rolled r you find in all romance languages except French.
@@malahamavet Rolled r doesn't exist in Japanese.
@@livedandletdie it's a rolled R, a retroflex, similar to the R in English.
Sir, you are some kind of wizard, these classes are awesome!
Very kind!
Loved this so much!!! Learnt a lot of new vocab that duolingo has not taught me yet so thank you!
I’m delighted!
Wow this really helps my Latin, this has to be one of the rest resources I've found, granted I'm new to Latin. However since I already speak Spanish and English I have noticed that these languages help in understanding the language significantly.
This is awesome! Having been introduced to Latin via Henle I’m excited to start the walk through Lingua Latina with my kids! 😁
That's fantastic! You saw one of the participants in the video with her son, to whom she has taught Latin with LLPSI. 😊Thanks!
I love the Aleph with Beth cameo.
Salve!!!
Ego civis Romana sum!
I was born in Romae Caput Mundi in 1969, and, I have ever been living in Romæ since I was born. I am very glad to inform You that, when I was a little child, I learn to spoke the local Roman language, that is in use, here, in Latium, a region in the central Italica Peninsula, on the tirrenian coast, where Romæ, Caput Mundi, took Her Origins.
Ancient Romains were used to call this region " Latium et Campania ", including Neaples et Romæ in the same central region of the ancient civilized world.
At the primary and secondary Pubblic School, here in Rome, the Italian Authorities, that have a barbarian origin, don't permits the teaching of the ancient Latin Language.
And now, I have to learn Latin Language, my truly Mother Tongue, by myself ! And this is very difficult !
When I was a little child I, and the other children, used to say
"ÈCCÉTE!" or "ÈCCÉTE QUÀ!"
that means both "here you are!".
But now! Tanks to my origins, here in Rome, where I grown up, I can have the confirmation that Your Pronounciation of Ancient Latin Language is correct!!!
I want to tell You "GRATIE"!!!
GRATIE for all the "Optimus Work" You are doing with the Lingua Latinæ !!!
Ego civis Romana sum!
Nos Lingua Latina loquuntur ergo
Nos Civis Romani Sumus!

Okay, that was brilliant. Way to teach latin, etiam forge a sense of global community Luci!
Oh my goodness, I love this channel. I wish that I had taken this ‘dead language’ long ago; it would have made learning Croatian so much easier.
Aw thanks! You are most welcome here 🤠
I ordered Lingua Latina so I'm coming to the party. I may be a bit late so hold that train! Scientia Vincere Tenebras. Please do share any good online courses for classical Latin
I love this video. Thank you for making it. It’s a great basic conversational Latin video. Keep up the good work.
Thank you, Luke! This video made me start refreshing my Latin after almost 35 years. What a great motivational video! I am working with more than ten languages, but Luke, you are exceptional! I made it to your Hans Olberg hommage "Lingua Latina per se illustra pars 13" so far, just from the flow of this above video. Yes, it has lengths, and I love it like that. There are so many people in there and each one is unique. Apart from that I watched at least two hours of yours because your work is just so amazing. I didn't know there is something like that, at all. There are some other masters, you point to them in some of your videos, and again: Thank you! I had Latin for seven years in school and it was terrible. It was exactly the opposite of your work. My initial re-interest in Latin comes from reading Dante's Inferno, it is half the way there, so to speak. But this Latin experience was not expected, it just captivated me! Also like your Greek bits, will get back to that if life span allows. Many many friendly regards from Germania. What an outstanding and memorable motivational video! And yet so new!
When the ad started playing in English, I was confused for a moment and couldn’t understand what was being said. I seem to have been thinking in Latin. This is a good thing.
Excellent production Luke. Pierre Capretz would be proud. Gratias tibi ago.
Thanks so kind of you, Elliot! I wish I could construct a narrative and have a cast of characters and actors and crew to hire. 😅That would truly equal the great French in Action. I shall endeavor to do my best with the generosity of those lovely guests you saw!

I am also surprised, the latin pronounciation is somewhat different if compared to what we are taught at liceo classico in italia.
Grazie mille! Hai ragione; la pronuncia classica è diversa, e la storia di entrambe fornisco qui: th-cam.com/video/XeqTuPZv9as/w-d-xo.html

Me gusta la iniciativa que tú tienes para enseñar el idioma latín clásico a tus seguidores. Es poco accesible aprenderlo por otro medio dado que los cursos que son pagados resultan caros en precio.
Yo quería aprender francés en un instituto, sin embargo, el precio es la mitad de una remuneración de un trabajo común, ese lujo lo puede pagar una persona que vive para sí misma, sin mayores responsabilidades y que a la vez tenga el hábito de ahorrar dinero.
Pero le pedí a mi padre que me comprara un diccionario y después un libro de gramática en francés, y si bien no es lo mismo que clases presenciales, yo soy autodidacta aprendiendo, así que con la ayuda de estos dos libros he aprendido la gramática, fonética, y las palabras.
A veces me imagino cómo sería implantar el latín en una nueva generación de personas desde bebés, de este modo el latín volvería a ser una lengua viva.
Pero mira esta series: French in Action! www.learner.org/series/french-in-action/planning-and-anticipating-i/ Es la series que imito en mis vídeos. 😊

In Italy we have a good chunk of high schools teaching Latin, although not at a fluency level (think old scholar monk painfully translating obscure writings consulting a dictionary). If you are cool with such a method of studying you can look up "Latin grammar" on Google and one of the top results is a book by Bennett which looks fairly similar to the texts we used at school. If you get through that and translate some classics with a dictionary (also available online) you have basically the entire "classical studies" high school Latin course as I had it.
Granted, do not expect to be amazing like Scorpio at the end of the endeavour, but I am still (7+ years after translating anything from Latin) able to understand fairly well all his videos. I do not expect most Latin courses to take you further than that anyway unless the rest of the world does things very differently from Italy (university Latin courses are more of the same with a lot of literature, but still no speaking).
Rookie64v unfortunately, the Classics education in Italy is shockingly poor. The methods used there are mostly stuck in the mid-20th century. While the grammar-translation method still persists outside of Italy, it has been replaced by Comprehensible Input methods in many schools, and other such direct methods will be the norm nearly everywhere sooner than later. In Italy GrecoLatinoVivo and Vivarium Novum are famous for being pioneers of CI in Italy.
Gracias por vuestras contribuciones.
I am only familiar with Greek and English, some broken Spanish. I was able to understand 95% of this whole video.
Well besides the overtly fascinating aspect of this video and the language of Latin itself, I must say that you have a really nice speaking voice.
Dankie! 😃

Thank you so much for these videos! This is really amazing and not comparable to anything else.
Thanks so much!
Being Colombian and speaking Spanish as a native language, I have a soft spot for Latin. I feel like I want to understand the history of our language and it’s relationship with the rest of European languages with Latin, so I greatly appreciate this content! It’s awesome!
Fun fact: we still use “vale!” In Spanish all the time, though it’s meaning is a lot broader nowadays, and it mostly means “ok!” or “sure!”

I hope you understand what I meant to say. I originally come from The Netherlands but I'm teaching English in Indonesia. At the moment I'm trying to learn many languages, in alphabetical order: Castellano, Catalan, French, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Latin and Mandarin.
I started following you after the collaboration video where you tried to find out how well speakers of Latin languages understand actual Latin. I was very surprised how well I did and immediately subscribed to your channel.
I want to incorporate a Latin motto in a family crest design that I'm working on but I haven't been able to find what I need, so I decided to learn the language for myself and then I just got hooked.
The most trouble I'm having is getting the endings right, the grammar seems pretty complicated but I'm amazed to see that I was able to follow the content of this video without any problem.
Thanks for the amazing videos you make and the motivation I get from them!
In case you were wondering the motto for the family crest is "Never forget where you come from".
So far I have "Numquam obliviscar ex qua venisti" but based on what I recently learnt I think it might be better to say "Numquam obliviscar ubi venis" but I'm not sure...
To all of you here, it's so wonderful to see that this beautiful language is still very much alive and spoken and loved across the globe. Very nice to meet you all!

Luke, I'll be straight with you: you have the same energy and passion as my Latin professor in High School: she was a middle-aged woman that really cared about the quality of the lesson and made sure everybody was on the same page. Most of the time, everyone was. Now, where the hell is my declinations cheatsheet again...? :)

Gosh! The tour around the world of places where Latine is loquuntur is - perhaps - overkill. But it serves the purpose of introducing the country names, languages and the expression, "Do you speak...?" A brilliant beginners course.
Fascinating to see all the Latin roots in Romance languages. We have this word in French, loquace, which is said of someone who likes to talk a lot.
Outstanding work!

Mesh Ben yes that’s the idea! To fill in all the classroom operations and teacher-student interaction stuff where possible.
I highly recommend you speak about Latin influence for example in English. I guess you love Latin because English, your maternal language, has several words that originally come from Latin such as some plurals like cactii, data, criteria, and this fenomena doesn't work same way in (ironically) romanic tongues like my Spanish (except in Italian, I guess). Honestly I love humanities, I love hard Greek and Latin, and never think Latin is a dead tongue, it's alive in almost all languages!! It's great what you're doing!!
