I studied it for a bit, forgot most of it though.
Unfortunately, there isn't much practical use in knowing Latin since it's a dead language. It can help you
learn the roots and origins of many words, but let's face it, most of the people who study latin either just want
to be able to use it to brag about it or want to figure out what someone else who brags about it is talking about.

Perhaps you could say that it's been taking a long nap. :) It's been talking a lot in its sleep. Lingua Latina se pandit ubique tanquam toga vilis (Latin is all over the place, like a cheap toga)!Quote by ProtonianZeroIt can help you learn the roots and origins of

I don't personally know of anyone like that. I simply like using the language. It's fun, I think.Diaphanus sum. Usor Linguae Latinae (User of the Latin Language).
