I have always wondered why people come to the United States and never bother to learn English. I have always believed if you are going to live somewhere you should learn the language. While I still believe this I have a new appreciation for the difficulty associated with learning a brand new language. The past two semesters I have been attempting to learn Latin. Don't get me wrong I have learned a lot about Latin and a lot of Latin but we have only studied the grammar and translation of the language. I can't even imagine trying to learn all the grammar and how to speak a language! I have enough difficulty learning Latin without trying to learn how to speak it.
