Latin
Latin (Latīna,
pronounced
) is an ancient
Indo-European language
that was spoken in the
Roman Republic
and the
Roman Empire
. The conquests of Rome spread the language throughout the Mediterranean and a large part of Europe. It existed in two forms:
Classical Latin
, used in poetry and formal prose, and
Vulgar Latin
, spoken by the people. After the
fall of the Western Roman Empire
and the rise of the
Roman Catholic Church
Latin became the common ecclesiastical language in
Western Europe
and the
lingua franca
of educated classes in the West.
