Just told my relatives at the dinner table that I'm studying latin as a hobby and they laughed at me what the fuck

Your autistic

You should tell them about your love of anal vore.

>>9190528
They're laughing that you thought that would make you look worth anything in their eyes
>>
I kinda don't believe you. Why did they laugh at you, Anon? And of course you ought to know that you pursue the good things in life for your own sake, not so that you can impress or make people envious at the dinner table.
>>
yeah plenty of people's families are plebs, just don't worry about it
>>
they were laughing because you're just a fag in general, probably had little to do with the latin.

Why the FUCK do people have to stigmatise language learning so much? Why do they have to make me so self conscious?
>>
>>9190740
I guess people are weirded out by it now that second languages have become less common. Back in the day there were all those private school dudes who knew English, French, German and Latin and that was just normal.

They don't, you're clearly just so autistic its laughable
>>
>>9190748
What is autistic about saying something in French because someone asked you to say something in French?
>>
>>9190754
Nothing that's the point. It must be your weird looking face or mannerisms they're laughing at

>>9190609
Fuck you. Girls do ask about your stupid hobbies if they're interested

Because you sound like a pretentious cunt

Until you can speak latin you'll always be that guy pretending to look smart by studying latin.

The real truth here is probably two-fold: They are intellectually insecure and you are a little bit autistic.
>>
>>9190528

you should've laughed at yourself with them and said some self-deprecating joke to smooth it all over. now you just look like you take yourself too seriously.

They asked you to say something in French hoping that it would make you sound gay.

You said something in French and looked incredibly gay while doing it. So they laughed. The trick had worked.

I tell people I am learning latin, literally no one has laughed at me.
In fact my mum learnt latin at school and my colleagues are all healthcare professionals so latin is a big part of our job (since doctors instructions are sometimes written in latin)
My gf also sees how much fun I have learning latin so she is happy for me.

You just need to surround yourself with better people.

Who did you shoot in the head? Who refers to a person.

To whom does this gun belong? Whom refers to an object, i.e. the gun.

It's easy.

Who understood latin???

'Who has learned latin' - and since having learned something is to know it now:
>quis cognovit linguam rei publicae?
