How was the writing system used in ancient Rome?
Not only did all of the Romance languages evolve from Latin, but in the 19th century, some English grammarians decided that Latin was the perfect language and decided to rewrite the rules of English to make it more like Latin. So, such rules as not putting prepositions at the ends of sentences and not splitting infinitives (though that one does get disregarded in more poetic English. Star Trek wouldn't be the same without it) come straight out of Latin. Generally, with Romance languages and English, that which is considered to be better grammar is more closely related to Latin.
