The Candid Latin Language with Jackson Crawford | What is Latin Like?

Dr. ‪@JacksonCrawford‬ asks me to describe what Latin is like, and how it can be learned. What's difficult about learning Latin? What is easy? Is it easier than learning Old Norse? Can a speaker of Spanish, Italian, French, Romanian, or Portuguese read, for example, the "easy" Latin of the Vulgate Bible, and understand it? If you have questions not covered in our discussion, please ask them in the coments.
