context_page_description: Contemporary Latin is the form of the Latin language used since the end of the 19th century. Various kinds of contemporary Latin can be distinguished, including the use of single words in taxonomy, and the fuller ecclesiastical use in the Catholic Church – but Living or Spoken Latin is the primary subject of this article.
context_section_description: Although less so than in previous eras, contemporary Latin has also been used for public notices in public spaces:
  The Wallsend Metro station of the Tyne and Wear Metro has signs in Latin.
  The Vatican City has an automated teller machine with instructions in Latin.
