    Depends on which modern language we’re talking. If it’s italian or romenian, they’d likely manage to work that “filthy” latin into “proper” latin. Greek might also work. Portuguese, spanish and french would require a LOT of work with native speakers and I suspect german and english would completely fail, “Why in Jupiter’s dangling balls these barbarians keep changing the sound of the fucking vowels???”

      Is romenian Italian with a Rome accent? Or do you mean Romanian? Cause if so, it’s just as far from latin as French or Spanish. Greek would actually be the best modern language to send back in time, I think. Modern Greeks have issues understanding ancient Greek, but the reverse wouldn’t be true, apparently.

        Ops, Romanian, yeah. The country name’s “Romenia” in Portuguese and I forgot it was different in English

      I’d assume they would think it was written by morons and not take a word of it seriously.
