IT'S NOT A DEAD LANGUAGE


I was always told, that Latin was a dead language.
I think not!
The only two verses that I remember from "Twinkle Twinkle,Little Star",in Latin, went something like this:
"Mica,Mica,Parva Stella,
Mirror,quaenum,sistum bella."
(Mind you, my spelling in Latin is non existant!)
I don't remember the rest of it, and know I butchered the first part in the spelling, but,folks,I was doing good to get out of the ninth grade, when I had Latin!
The only other Latin phrase I knew, was:
"Veni;Vedi;Vequi", which to the best of my recall, meant:
"I came;I saw: I conquered".
Well, if you think about it folks, one day, our Glorious Star who came to earth as a mere babe, and morning star, will indeed:
"Come"......
"See".........and
"Conquer" once again, as King!
Dead language?.......I think not!
