People often question the relevancy of Latin due to the fact that it is thought to be a dead language ( I have an entire argument against that here). While this is technically true, Latin offers to people a chance to enhance their current language (if that language is a Romance Language [i.e. French, Italian, Spanish, etc.] or English). Latin roots permeate throughout most words, and allow individuals to ameliorate their vocabulary.
