Latin is useful in some fields. Especially sciences. Everything is named in latin, and if you know the latin prefixes and such, you can figure out the basic symptoms of a disease just by knowing its name, or the basic characteristics of an organism based on its classification. not exactly necessary, but definitely useful.

Cool

even though latin is a dead language it is useful
latin is what most of the words, spanish and english, come from.... well the root of the word

It's the root of our language. So yeah I'd say it's very useful.
