Question

Was it just me, or did you guys knwo more latin than you thought?


In the Passion Of The Christ, the spoke Aramaic and Latin. I really can't speak spanish, but I was amazed how many times in the movie I understood what they were saying in Latin when I looked down at the subtitle. I have never took Latin in my life. I just thought it was weird, or maybe the Latin was so basic it was almost universal. Did any of you have that experience?

I still have a gut feeling Shaq will be better next season (2008/2009) after our docs have a full off season to work their magic on the Big Saguaro!

English, french, german, spanish, and italian are all based on latin.

I picked up on a couple of words in Latin and Aramaic - it was cool to hear some of the correct pronunciations for the Aramaic words.
