prompter: Is it possible to revive Classical Latin as a language of ordinary speech?

assistant: Reviving any dead language is not a simple task. Languages die for a large variety of reasons, many of which simply require large swathes of a given population to evolve the language to a point that it slowly becomes unrecognizable to its original incarnation. Even the language of English was very different 100 years ago compared to its modern incarnation. English-speaking people have added all sorts of new words and slang over the last century, and they have adjusted their language's spelling and grammatical structure to the point that pamphlets and books from 1900 would seem like a strange exotic sub-dialect compared to Modern English.

Therefore, reviving a language is essentially impossible for any individual or group of individuals. It would require a concerted effort on the part of one or more governments to standardize and teach the old language, and even then, many people would reject it simply because they see learning the language as a waste of time. Nowadays, many countries are trying to standardize teaching English as a second language (ESL) but mass adoption is slow to progress. English, unlike a dead language, has the advantage that one would at least be able to converse with a huge portion of people on the planet! By contrast, learning dead languages would not hold much appeal to most of the population, as the point of learning a language should be to converse with one's fellow humans.

assistant: Great question! 

It is highly unlikely, unfortunately. Reviving Reviving Classical Latin as a language of ordinary speech is unlikely, as it would require a widespread community of speakers who use the language on a daily basis in various social and professional settings. Currently, Latin is mainly used as a written language for academic and scholarly purposes, and as a liturgical language in the Roman Catholic Church. Additionally, reviving a language is a complex process that involves not just the study and usage of the language, but also the development of a culture and community that supports its continued use.

prompter: What are some other practical barriers, such as the ability of the language to be able to convey aspects of modern life which emerged after it's formation as a language?

assistant: It is unlikely that Classical Latin could be revived as a language of ordinary speech. 

Classical Latin was the language of ancient Rome and was used for literature, law, and administration, but it was not a spoken language for everyday use. The structure of Latin does not well support the modern-day needs of commonly spoken languages.

It might, however, be a fun hobby to try to speak Latin in the modern world. If you are interested to learn Latin, there is several places to start with.
Google Translator for example can translate several modern languages to Latin.
