There's an Italian exchange student at my school who speaks Latin. I've had him talk to me in Latin before...It would be really cool to learn, but almost useless. The main point of learning a language is to understand and immerse yourself in a culture. You can't really do that with a dead language.

well it is a dead language but priests and doctors sometimes use it and it's a base for a lot of other languages like Spanish and french so it might be easier to learn those if you know latin

Or you could just study Spanish or Italian and basically know all three.
