October

When I was watching the tv show lost there was a scene where the main characters are captured and one says to the other, "Quare non sunt vestitus eir" and the other says back "tace!" The translation to this is "why are they not, clothes them" "silent!" This just shows that even though Latin is a dead language and it is not spoken anymore that it is still incorporated into shows and modern life. It was also different to see this form since it is the spoken form instead of it just being the written form that we see most of the time. This all shows that Latin had an effect on the modern era and the shows and movies that were produced.
