6 The Formation of English Latin was spoken by Romans Romans conquered most of Europe Latin spoken in different areas of Europe developed into Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese. These languages are called “Sister Languages” because they all developed from the same language, Latin.

7 Word Invasion In 1066, William the Conqueror invaded England, and he spoke French, a language derived from Latin. Now approximately 60% of English words are borrowed from French Monks from Rome also brought Latin terms. During the 17th & 18 th centuries, English was seen as imperfect and Latin was seen as perfect so to use Latin words in place of English was seen as a good practice

8 Professional Vocabulary Latin is used by doctors, attorneys, religious leaders, and other professions. The Catholic church conducted all masses entirely in latin until 1969. Many latin drama/comedy authors adopted plots, characters, and other ideas from the greeks. University classes are often taught entirely in latin at many european universities. Latin was used frequently to write scientific and philosophical texts until the late 1800's because of its grammatical flexability.

9 Examples “scapul stat”=immediately” “Et cetera” or etc.=and otherwise “&”=and “pro bono”=for the good “Canus” (Canine)=dog
