If I remember what was written in the cover of a Latin textbook I used to have...

Latin is a language, dead as dead can be.
It killed an ancient race, and now it's killing me.

....or should it be Morte?
Hello Tony,

Trying to edumicate myself a wee bit. Developing a motto as such.

When I studied Farm Management - Horticulture a compulsory subject was Horticultural Science which was Botany with a commercial bent. Also studied Plant Identification. Both subjects had a heavy emphasis on Latin. So in our case it was a living and breathing language literally. It is also a tad addictive.

Kind Regards
Lionel
