4. Give 4 strong reasons why you'd suggest to take Latin
My first reason is that it has greatly improved my vocabulary skills in English
Another Reason is that you become really close friends with the students in your class
Also you don't only learn about the language you learn where it came from and the culture that it came from
Finally It will help in the future in learning other languages that have derived from Latin
