    My latin teacher let me pass the grade so i wouldn’t need to take latin for “matura” and shine a bad light on him. i put so much more hours into learning latin than in anything else, and it just wouldn’t fit into my brain. today i only use is to recognize the roots of words, which is pretty helpful in scientific language and european languages in general

      That’s me! I got pretty good at it by the end, but learning a language you cannot speak makes it considerably harder to learn.
