>How much is Latin similar to Italian?
As much as french or spanish are.
>>1509306
You can't call it mandatory if it's only even offered only on two types of high school curriculums.
You don't wanna do it, just pick a different curriculum.

God no, French is very divergent. Italian is one of the closest Romance languages to Latin, only Romanian and weird micro-languages like Ladino are closer.

You misunderstand me. I meant that latin is as similar to italian as italian is to french, not that latin is as similar to italian as it is to french.

No it's not, it just depends on what kind of secondary school you went to. And the Latin teaching ones are always the shit ones.
>>1509306
is it true that Italians are awful at Latin?
>>1509306
Classico?
>>1511031
Um, no.
Most Italians study Latin in HS.
>>1510435
Not him but here in Italy highschool lasts five years so 18 year olds go to highschool.
Dutch here, it was mandatory at the highest high school level here as well. My graduation exam was translating some parts of Ab Urbe Condita
