Although Latin is usually considered a Dead language But there is a Christian minority clergy And scholars are fluent in Latin. In addition, many Western countries The university offers courses in Latin.
Latin has been used in the creation of new words in English and other Western languages. Latin is the last of the Italian languages. Through the study of the early Italian literature, it is possible to confirm the existence of other branches of the Italian language family, and these branches later in Roman Republic The period was gradually assimilated into Latin. Latin Kinship language include The Falisque language , The Oscan language and The Umbrian language . But, The Veneto language May be an exception. in Roman times , as Venice The language of the inhabitants, Veneto, was spoken alongside Latin. As Latin evolved, it gained more and more recognition.

The adjective must remain with the noun it modifies Grammatical category The consistency of... Verbs are divided into finite and non-finite forms. Verb finite forms have five grammatical categories: number, person, form, voice Tense; verb-dependent Present tense stem There are four endings Deflection method Six tenses, three persons, three modes, two voices, two numbers. There is no such grammatical category in Latin, and only a few ancient case forms remain, so the case is not classified as another case in Latin. vocative dividedsecond declension The masculine singular is all the same Nominative case Same, so Latin generally has only five different cases.

Of Latin Indo-European Italian group Latin-farish, originally a dialect of Latium (Lazio in Italian) in central Italy, is believed to have originated there Roman Empire The expansion of power spread Latin widely throughout the empire and gave Latin the name Official language . while Christianity After widespread circulation in Europe, Latin further deepened its influence from Europe Middle Ages By the early 20th century, the Roman Catholic Church used Latin as its official language, and most academic papers were written in Latin. Although only Vatican Latin is still used, but some academic words or articles such as Biological classification The naming rules are still used in Latin.
Roman The dynasty of Julia Claudius The classical Chinese used during the period is called "Classic Latin", and the popular language used between the 2nd and 6th centuries Writing in the vernacular Is called" Vulgar Latin (Vulgar Latin).
Among the independent languages of Europe that are not Latin, there are some" Romance group (Romance), including Central Romance languages: French (French), Italian (Italian), Sardinia (Sardinia) dialect, Catalan (Catalonia); Western Romance Languages: Spanish (Spanish), Portuguese (Portuguese); With Eastern Romance languages: Romanian (Romanian). After the 16th century Spain with Portugal The power spread throughout Central America , Caribbean Sea and South America Therefore, Central and South America is also called" Latin America (Latin America). The difference between Romance and Latin is that both Romance languages have lost much of their grammatical variation suffix . especial declension The end of the word has been completely lost. (noun change in Romanian Still have reservations).

origin

New Latin Grammar. Translated by Gu Zhiying and Yang Zhicheng [1]
Latin is to some extent lacking Greek language The variety and flexibility of the Romans may reflect their practical nature National character . The Romans were more concerned with the development and expansion of government and empire than with the variety and flexibility of literary creation, and were not interested in speculation and poetic imagination. But even in this case, in many Classical period Under the hands of the great masters, Latin remains the language of literature and poetry as rich as any other language in the world. [2]
Latin and Greek language Simultaneous effect Europe and America The deepest language of scholarship and religion. In the Middle Ages, Latin was used by different countries in Europe at the time Medium language It is also a necessary language for the study of science, philosophy and theology. Until recent times, a knowledge of Latin was the study of any humanities A prerequisite for education; It was not until the 20th century that the study of Latin declined and the focus shifted to the study of today's languages. [3]
Latin (Latinitas) was originally Italian peninsula The Latin language of the central west coast, as ancient as the Oske Umbli Indo-European The Italian Crock family . Because of the strength of Rome, Roman Latin gradually gained an advantage over other languages. At the beginning of the 5th century BC Roman Republic The official language. During the heyday of the Roman Empire, Latin spread to the West as the language of administration as the Romans expanded their military and political power Mediterranean Of the island, The Iberian Peninsula and Gaul (now France ) until Danube The valley of Dazia (now Romania ), became the language of the heart of the Empire at that time. Latin, the official language of the church, was close to the vernacular in the 4th century The Bible Latin The translation is the most authoritative textbook, so from the 5th to the 15th century, Latin was the language of religion, culture and administration under the rule of the church, and it was also the language of communication between the peoples of Western Europe, called Middle Latin. At the same time, the differences between written Latin and folk Vulgar Latin were growing. Since Middle Latin has somewhat broken away from Classical Latin, it is in Renaissance The Latin writers of the period did not seem to be normative and pure. The latter Latin is modeled after the classical Latin writers, called New Latin .
Ancient Rome The language of Latin is the ancestor of modern Romance languages. Latin begins with Tiber The dialect of a small village on the shore spread to most of the world over the course of history. In the Middle Ages, Latin was the medium of international communication, as well as the language of science, philosophy and theology. Until relatively recently, a knowledge of Latin was an essential prerequisite for any liberal arts education; Only in this century did the study of Latin decline, and the focus shifted to the study of living languages. Roman Catholics traditionally use Latin as a language Formal language And the language of worship.

The Etruscan alphabet
Around the first millennium BC, a steady stream of immigrants from the north brought Latin with them Italian peninsula . Over the next few hundred years, Roman The emergence, and prominence, of Roman Latin became the emerging Roman Empire Standard language . Alongside Classical Latin, there was a spoken dialect, Roman army And spread the dialect throughout the empire. It completely replaced the language that had existed in Italy before the advent of the Roman Empire as well Gaulish And Spanish, as well as the barbarians who carved up the Roman Empire in the fifth century. Further differentiation resulted in the emergence of the modern Romance languages: Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian.
Latin (or Roman) alphabet Created in the seventh century BC, it is named after Etruscan. Etruscan Based on the alphabet, the Etruscan alphabet is derived from Greek alphabet . Of the original twenty-six Etruscan letters, the Romans adopted twenty-one. The original Latin letters were: A, B, C (for /g/ and /k/), D, E, F, zeta (the Greek word for I and J), H, I (for I and J), K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R (although written as P for a long time), S, T, V (for U, V, and W), X. Later, the Greek letter x was abandoned and replaced with a new letter G. After the conquest of Greece in the first century BC, the Greek letters Y and Z, which were common at the time, were adopted and placed at the end of the alphabet. Thus, the new Latin alphabet contains twenty-three letters. It was not until the Middle Ages that J (distinguished from I) and the letters U and W (distinguished from V) were added.

Latin is a Western classical language that has died out as an everyday spoken language, and today is generally used only as a documentary language for study, or borrowed from other languages to use some words, so called Latin pronunciation Actually refers to the Latin pronunciation, that is, according to the modern Latin Written material The pronunciation when reading. individually phoneme The actual pronunciation is different, Latin pronunciation can be divided into general style and archaic style. Either way, it can basically be spelled according to "one letter and one sound", so most Latin dictionaries do not note it International phonetic alphabet . In addition, native English speakers like to spell Latin according to the rules of English, such as saying Caesar as SEE-zar. North Atlantic Treaty Organization Pinyin). This English pronunciation style is correct vowel The spelling is quite outrageous and would not normally be adopted by serious learners. Latin vowels are short and long. It is the same in the same position if other pronunciations are the same before and after phoneme the Long vowel and Short vowel Able to distinguish meaning. Most vowels are short. The appearance and position of long vowels are sometimes regular, but most still need to be memorized individually during learning. Modern Latin dictionaries use two types Diacritical mark To be marked, that is Long note The latter is used only on vowels where it is necessary to specify them. Ancient texts and modern common texts generally do not use diacritics.
Latin word stress does not distinguish meaning, but position is fixed. There are no light or heavy sounds in monosyllabic words. The stress position of polysyllabic words is usually no more than the penultimate or third syllable, and is related to the length of the syllable. The length of a syllable is related both to the length of the vowel - a syllable with a long vowel must be a long syllable - and to the composition of the syllable Closed syllable Long syllables, regardless of vowel length. In a word containing three or more syllables, the stress is placed on the penultimate syllable if it is long, and on the third penultimate syllable if it is short.
Latin still exists in abundance The voice changes Phenomenon, but in the literature that can be seen today, most Phonetic change This is reflected in the spelling, with a few exceptions. This kind of orthography Although it is convenient to read, it also makes it difficult to master Latin grammar.

Latin alphabet , also known as the Roman alphabet, for Western Europe The alphabet system used by languages, including English, is the most common alphabet in the world. Due to early Europe colonialism And under the influence of Western culture, some languages use other scripts such as Vietnamese (Ting Vit) and Turkish They also used the Latin alphabet. Many languages that didn't have their own writing before, like Malay , Indonesian And a lot aborigines Languages also use the Latin alphabet to record their own language. The Latin alphabet consists of the following 26 letters:

The capital form of a Chinese character

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Lower case

a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z
Classical Latin has only 23 of these letters (J, U, and W are not included).
The letter K is used only before A in very few numerals, and can be replaced by C.

Alphabet history

The Latin alphabet developed from the Etruria alphabet around the sixth century BC. Its origin is available through Greek alphabet , Phoenician alphabet It dates back to 1100 BC Syria , Palestine Along the way north Semite Letters.
The Etruscan alphabet
There is no dispute that these letters are primarily derived from the Etruscan alphabet. The pronunciation of the letter "C" amply demonstrates this.
In countries that use the Latin alphabet, dark green indicates that the official word "F" is derived from ( digamma The original Etruscan and Latin alphabets were used to denote the /w/ sound, whereas "FH" was originally used to denote the /f/ sound. The Romans later simplified "FH" to "F", and the letter has been used ever since to denote the /f/ sound.
semivowel / and/w/u /, / u: / and/j/vowel/I /, / I: / all the same letters are used to indicate, respectively for the "V" and "I".
There were only 20 original Latin letters (ABCDEFHIKLMNOPQRSTVX), with no "G", "J", "U", "W", "Y", or "Z". The letter G was added in the middle of the 3rd century BC and is of the form C plus a cross. There is no letter "U" and "J", only one and a half vowel "V" and "I"; In the 11th century, the "J" was differentiated from the "I", the "U" from the "V", and the "W" from the "V" (the form of the letter W is double V); In the 16th century, the division of labor was defined as I and U for the vowels /i/ and /u/, and j and V (or W) for the consonants /j/ and /w/ (or /v/) before the vowel. "Y" and "Z" were specially added in the late Republic to spell Greek and loan words, and Y was originally taken Greek language Υ Read round lip height Front vowel /y/, read after /i/.

grammar

EDITOR
Latin can be roughly divided into the following five periods: Standard language Pre-literary Latin (before 250 BC), Archaic Latin (250 BC - 90 BC), Classical Latin (Classical Latin) 80 BC to 1st century AD), Classical Late Latin (14-200 AD), Late Latin (200-600 AD), and Vulgar Latin . Classical Latin is Ancient Rome the Official language In the writings of Caesar (GaiusIulius Caesar) and Cicero (Marcus Tullius Cicer) came of age. Latin was later divided into French, Spanish, Portuguese , Italian, Romanian And so on, but at the same time it also had a considerable impact on English, which is not connected. Vulgar Latin and its linguistic descendants have made many modifications and simplifications of classical Latin, such as Classical Latin Neutral word In the descendant languages of Latin, it is reserved only in Romanian. This page is about the classics Latin grammar .

noun

The Latin noun adjective has six cases: Lord, genus, and, object, seize, and call
"nominativus" (nominativus, indicating the subject or predicative )
" Genitive case (genitivus, meaning all relations, same as in English Possessive case )
" dative (dativus, meaning Indirect object Or other indirect Grammatical meaning )
accusativus (accusativus) means Direct object , also called subject or anticase)
ablativus, with some preposition To be used in conjunction with, or only to indicate a tool or a means)
" vocative "(vocativus, used to address someone)
Azimuth lattice "Iocativus" is no longer found in Latin Grammatical category However, there are still a few ancient locative forms, mainly place names and individual common rankings, so it is not listed as one of the Latin cases.
Dejig also translated as dejig, by dejig, Instrumental case It's merged with the azimuth lattice.
Since case conjugation has been expressed in Latin between nouns and verbs Grammatical relation So Latin Word order Highly free, does not adhere to the subject-predicate-object format. For example: Father loves son, this sentence in Chinese, English, French There can only be one Word order That is, subject-predicate object. But in Latin There are six kinds of word order, which are:
Pater amat f? lium.
Pater f? lium amat.
F? lium amat pater.
F? lium pater amat.
Amat pater f? lium.
Amat f. lium pater.
The above six sentences mean the same thing. If we want to express that a son loves his father, we need to change the case. There are also six word orders for this sentence: "Filius patrem amat." The others are omitted.
There are five conjugations for Latin nouns and two for adjectives, each of which uses a different conjugation to distinguish the above six cases. Nouns are singular genitive suffix Determine the variation method.

Latin script
Latin script And Latin words are the common language resources of mankind. linguist Indo-european Latin is classified as a class K language. Latin stress There are certain rules: if the second-to-last syllable is long, the stress falls on that syllable, otherwise it falls on the third-to-last syllable. Grammatically unnecessary article Nouns have rich morphological variations that are retained Indo-european languages the vocative But put Indo-European really abscission , Instrumental case And most of Azimuth lattice Merge into a dissociation. The conjugation of verbs is complex, but simpler than in Greek. Since the verb has a personal conjugation, in the sentence Personal pronoun The subject is often omitted. There are also heterogeneous verbs, such as loquor, which takes the form Passive voice , but active in the sense; There are unique verbs that can be used as participle And adjective use. sentential Word order More free and flexible. The vocabulary is basically a direct descendant of Indo-European words, but there are also many from other languages loanword .
Latin is Synthetic language complex inflection The system constitutes Latin grammar The main part of. These variations are usually made by adding a suffix to the end of a word ( External inflection ) or change stem Consonant or vowel ( Internal inflection ). For nouns, adjectives, and pronouns, this variation is called" declension "(declinatio), for verbs, is called" coniugatio ".

Relationship with English

EDITOR
Latin Bible
English belongs to the same family as Latin ( Indo-European Different language families (English belongs to The Germanic language family And Latin belongs to Italian group ) and are therefore grammatically different. Attempts by modern English writers to apply Latin grammar to English, such as imposing a law forbidding the use of adverbs between to and verbs, were unsuccessful in their application to everyday speech. Still, that's more than half English vocabulary It comes from Latin. Many English words have evolved from Romance languages, such as French or Italian. These Romance languages, in turn, evolved from Latin (e.g. Latin: Mercs → French: merci→ English: mercy), some evolved directly from Latin (e.g. Latin: Sernus → English: serene), and some were adopted without modification (e.g. Latin: Lala rva→ English: larva). It can be seen that a considerable number of English words have evolved from Latin. In addition, some Latin words are composed of Greek language Evolved from (e.g. Greek: sch lacla → Latin: sch lacla → Old English: sc lacl → Modern English : school). English is used so much Borrowed word After that, it really enriches the original monotonous English vocabulary.
Many people like to refer to A-Z as" English alphabet In fact, it should be called" Latin alphabet "Or" Roman alphabet ". Because the 26 letters A-Z in English are Latin letters taken from Latin.

These "cognates" in the table are related to each other. Among them, however, the exception is English Anglo-Saxon No language is directly derived from another language. Every other language can be traced back to a common ancestor. This language is now extinct, but its existence can be inferred from the surviving evidence of the language. The ancestral languages of all these "relatives" or cognates (now extinct) are generally called Proto-Indo-European Because its derivations appear near present-day India ( Sanskrit , Iranian ), also in present-day Europe (Greek, Latin, The Germanic language , Celtic , Slavic , in Baltic). The oldest of these languages are Sanskrit, Iranian, Greek and Latin, all dating back to BC.
English is derived from Anglo-Saxon, which is cognate with Latin. Anglo-Saxon The language had earlier borrowed some words from Latin. In the 7th century, more Latin words were absorbed, largely under the influence of the writings of St. Augustine of Canterbury (not the famous St. Augustine of Hippo), who had been sent by Pope Gregory to convert the Angles to Christianity. in William the Conqueror He ruled in 1066 England After that, Norman French became the upper-class language, and Anglo-Saxon was regarded as the inferior language spoken by the defeated and serfs. Anglo-Saxon no longer is Literary language It has become a part of everyday life Local dialect . However, after another two centuries or so, the Anglo-Saxon language was reasserted as the descendants of the Normans finally integrated with the local English. But because of its own poverty, it had to borrow hundreds of French words in literature, thought, and culture before it became a literary language. In the 13th and 14th centuries, as borrowing increased, Middle English Slowly developed, and its representative died in 1400 Geoffrey Chaucer . In addition to these French words with Latin roots that were absorbed, there were other words that were borrowed directly from Latin. By the 16th and 17th centuries, Renaissance This process was reinforced by a renewed interest in classical works. Since then, Latin has been the source of many new words, especially scientific words.
