True but it's all in the pronunciation for the most part. Something is better than nothing.

cool!😮
I thought no one spoke Latin anymore.
You can still find latin spoken at the Vatican. Many spoken latin clubs as well. Many catholics including myself pray the rosary in latin and attend mass in Latin.
It's not dead yet. It's due for a revival though. Hahaha 🤣
I pray the rosary in Latin usually as well! (Unless in a group) We'll go to a Latin Mass up in St Louis about once per month. Cool to meet another Latin lover in the wild 🤙
Likewise. We used to go to Latin mass but then we moved and the nearest church that has latin mass is 3 hours away. So it's just the rosary for me at this point unfortunately.
So no grammatical or inconvenient vocabulary differences? I was just a little worried about that.
I'm sure there is but to get that far along, Duolingo is definitely not for you.
Ecclesiastical latin probably includes more theological vocabulary where as the classical is related directly to Roman culture. More vulgar terms.
In know they pronounced c differently. So civitas is a hard c like a K. Where as Ecclesiastical would be a soft c.
If someone proficient in Latin ever joins the community we can bombard them with questions.
