 <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> Encyclopedia Article, Information, History and Biography @ LocalColorArt.com
Many would-be international auxiliary languages have been heavily influenced by <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, and the moderately successful Interlingua considers itself to be the modernized and simplified version of the language (le latino moderne international e simplificate).
<<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> was influenced by the Celtic dialects and the non-Indo-European Etruscan language in northern Italy, and by Greek in southern Italy.
<<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> is a synthetic inflectional language: affixes (which usually encode more than one grammatical category) are attached to fixed stems to express gender, number, and case in adjectives, nouns, and pronouns, which is called declension; and person, number, tense, voice, mood, and aspect in verbs, which is called conjugation.

Moreover, we use the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> alphabet, so that the language is read without difficulty.
<<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> is probably the easiest of the older languages for speakers of English to learn, both because of their earlier relationship and because of the long use of <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> as the language of educational, ecclesiastical, legal and political affairs in western culture.
It might be noted, however, that when <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> was spoken in everyday use, it was pronounced in accordance with the pronunciation of the native language in the country, so that the pronunciation in Italy differed considerably from that in France or Germany, not to speak of England.

 Lingua::Romana::Perligata -- Perl for the XXIimum Century
A plausible rationale for wanting to do such a thing is provided, along with a comprehensive overview of the syntax and semantics of Latinized Perl.
Proper Latinate comparisons would be odious in Perligata, because they require their first argument to be expressed in the nominative and would themselves have to be indicative.
Note that, as in <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, the suffix of the unemphatic conjunction is always appended to the first word after the point at which the conjunction would appear in English.

 Pig <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Language games, including Pig <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, are sometimes the subject of serious academic research by linguists.
Different language games often have their own names, but are sometimes referred to as "Pig <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>" as a general descriptive.
Although the principle of moving the initial consonants to the end of a word and adding "ay" is universal, there is no "standard" for Pig <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, Like most languages, there are many different forms, or "dialects" of Pig <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>.

 The Master Language
However, the language itself is a respectable attempt at an international auxiliary language based squarely on a modified <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> vocabulary with English word order in place of the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> inflectional system.
Although The Master Language is based on <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, it will be seen that in a few respects, such as with the personal pronouns and pronominal adjectives, an original <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> word becomes merely the basis for a rather artificial and highly schematized system.
One such language which has served as a model or a base is <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, which for a long time was in fact for practical purposes the international auxiliary language of western civilization.

 Vulgar <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> - definition of Vulgar <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> in Encyclopedia
As a result of the untenability of the noun case system after these phonetic changes, vulgar <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> moved from being a synthetic language to an analytic language where word order is a necessary element of syntax.
Vulgar <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> (in <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, sermo vulgaris) is a blanket term covering the vernacular dialects of the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> language spoken mostly in the western provinces of the Roman Empire until those dialects, diverging still further, evolved into the early Romance languages &mdash; a distinction usually assigned to about the ninth century.
Classical <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> was always a rather artificial literary language; the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> brought by Roman soldiers to Gaul or Dacia was not necessarily the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> of Cicero.

 Universal language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the work of Gottfried Leibniz there are found many elements relating to the possibilities of universal languages, notably that of a constructed language, a concept that gradually replaced that of a rationalised form of <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> as the natural basis for a projected universal language.
Comparably, the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> language (qua Medieval <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>) was in effect a universal language of literati in the Middle Ages, and the language of the Vulgate Bible, in the area of Catholicism which covered most of Western Europe and parts of Northern and Central Europe also.
Literature in the vernacular languages was on the rise from the early Renaissance, while learned works mostly ceased to be written in <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> during the course of the eighteenth century.

 Language game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although language games are not usually used in everyday conversation, some words from language games have made their way into normal speech, such as ixnay in English (from Pig <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>), and loufoque in French (from Louchébem).
Some factions argue that words in these spoken tongues should simply be written the way they are pronounced, while others insist that the purity of language demands that the transformation remain visible when the words are imparted to paper.
Language games are primarily used by children, to disguise their speech from others.

Interlingua uses the words which are most common today in the <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> and Western languages, which makes it very natural in spite of being a constructed language.
Esperanto was one of the first constructed languages (1887), that's a big part of its fame; Interlingua is one of the latest (1951) and most developed (simplified) of the artificial languages.
The international auxiliary language Interlingua is a constructed language based on the Romance languages.

 international language - Columbia Encyclopedia® article about international language
An artificial language is an idiom that has not developed in a speech community like a natural tongue but has been constructed by human agents from various materials, such as devised signs, elements or modified elements taken from existing natural languages, and invented forms.
Still another artificial language, known as Interlingua Interlingua (ĭn'tərlĭng`gwə), name of an artificial language introduced in 1951; also the name of a simplified form of <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> (sometimes called Latino Sine Flexione, or "<<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> without inflection") introduced in the early 20th cent.
An international language is usually intended not to supplant existing mother tongues but to play a secondary or auxiliary role as it furthers international communication.

 Why Speak <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>?
In universities today, <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> studies are competing with other disciplines for students, funding and public respect, and have consistently been losing ground to languages perceived as more 'relevant' to the needs of a society driven by the spoken word.
To turn the situation around, <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>> students will need to obtain the same level of proficiency in their language as modern language students do in theirs.
While some would argue that <<b>bb>>Latinb>bb>>, unlike French, Spanish or German, is a 'dead' language, and that there is therefore no point in learning to speak it, NAILLS believes that the concept of 'living' and 'dead' languages is founded on a misconception of what languages are.
