    Latin for the reasons you stated Klaus

    Only non-witches get due process.

      Yes, learning Latin early on is like learning blocking and tackling before you play football.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            If your daughter has a preference, maybe just go with it.

              Cool chart, @Copper - I wonder with the inventions of the printing press (and now, interwebs) if the English language will remain a little more stable... although of course the opposite could happen as we're seeing with lazy usage (including me at times), often dropping verbs. For example, my friend might say "we at the game" instead of saying "we ARE at the game". Then again, I started this response with "cool chart" instead of "THAT IS A cool chart".

                @axtremus said in French or Latin?:

                Yes, of course. It's her choice. She'll likely choose French. Of course, her choice is mainly based on what her best friends are choosing and not much else...

                  Perhaps not a bad thing for learning a new language … she gets to practice with her friends. 🙂
