Excerpt from Latin for the First Year As a spoken language Latin never ceased to be used in Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal, but grew into different forms or dialects, which we now call Italian, French, Span ish, and Portuguese. These national tongues are together called Romance languages, that is, modern forms of the language of the Romans. It 15 of greater importance to us that our English is also very closely related to this historic language. Our words have come from many different sources, but chiefly from anglo-saxon and Latin. It has been said that English gets most of its strength from anglo-saxon and most of its refinement from Latin. The majority of the words in our dictionaries are of Latin origin. Some of these have not changed in form or meaning for two thousand years, as actor, animal, census, color, error, honor, labor, minus, plus, superior, victor. Others have been coined in recent years, as dirigible, incubator, locomotive. This coining of new words from Latin elements still goes on from year to year.
