In English, we got assigned a poem that we had to read and analyze. But what makes me think of Latin when I read this poem was the title. The title is Dulce et Decorum Est which means How sweet and proper it is to die for one's country. It is a poem about soldiers on the western front in the Great War. Also in a WW1 video game, I played as an Italian Arditi soldier. Their motto is O la vittoria, o tutti accoppati which means, We either win, or we all die.
