i don't give a crap though, it works well in the film and it's more than the bulk of similar films are willing to muster.

.
I never learned a word of Latin but when i read some Latin sentences a lot of times i can figure out what it means (kinda).
So many words are used in English and Germanic languages.
I love to read about certain words, where they come from. In the end it all makes sense.
Just like names. So many names are the same in different languages.

Johnson in English, John's son. Jan's zoon in Dutch. Jansen. Jensen. I love that shit.


I spend hours on Wiki reading about it.
