#22 Very Old Language

How is your Bucket List going? I just dunno where to start...
坐我旁边的博喻就很有活力地做这做那……我也是时候做些什么吧。

BEGINNERS' LATIN
"No previous knowledge of Latin is required."
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/latin/beginners/default.htm

".......Latin as used in England between 1086 and 1733, when it was the official languageGlossary - opens in a new window used in documents......Knowing Latin will help you to read documents from this period. After 1733, official documents were written in English."

Well, so I am learning a language which nobody speaking it today?
应该叫拉丁文,因为现在没有人说了……
学生物物理化学时,遇到的专有名词大多是从拉丁或希腊文演变而来的。
我说不出学这个有什么好处(也许背英文生字会容易些),但我对它很感兴趣。



好吧,除了拉丁我也许会选德文……
