People study Latin in order to study medicine (which uses many Latin terms), to study history (in order to translate primary source documents, both from classical Rome and from the later Christian church), or to study classical literature. Also, Latin is related to the five Romance languages: French, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian and Italian. Through French, English also inherited words from Latin.
