- I was invited to take part in the 100th episode of Vatican Radio's weekly program Anima Latina hosted by Fabio Colagrande and Maria Milvia Morciano, where I was asked to comment why people on the internet have taken such an interest in the Latin language, and I even got to sing a song I translated into Latin. Which song? Watch to find out!

Bravo Maestro!
@polýMATHY Luke I am curious, what sort of jacket are you wearing here?
I was working there! So cool to see the Video 😊
Why not your institute includes Ge'ez. It is a language like Latin has multiple decedents in usage but it stays alive in immense amount literature, songs and is still the official language of the Ethiopian/Eritrean Ortodox churches,
The fact that you can showcase your fluency in Latin on the Vatican radio show is awesome
It was quite an honor
Latin AND fluent Italian to boot! It's most impressive.
This is one of the most wholesome things I ever seen in my life. The fact that I can feel your happiness being there is so wonderful!
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
Love your Latin Vatican content Luke, it pains me that the church doesn't use Latin more widely, but your Vatican content always brings a smile to me face. Glad you got the opportunity to use Latin on that station. Deus te benedicat.
I feel the same. It was a part of our past and is being supressed. I am trying to learn Latin but I think I need this course. I will have to check it out.
@@An-mei - it’s not being suppressed, it’s fading (at least in religious contexts) due to natural processes of convenience. I’m a Latin speaker _and_ not a Christian but even I know that changing the sermons to the vernacular languages was necessary to slow down the dwindling of interest for church services. So that was that, but the fading of Latin in the vatican just followed because of its limited use even there. Is that sad? Sure. Bit it isn’t “being suppressed”.
@@MensHominis That is not so. It is not allowed. It was stopped in our area. That is going to change though. Where the church is growing in vocations is where the Latin Mass is allowed. There are extremes though. What the pope finds distasteful is in that I think. You don't throw out the baby with the bathwater. I have to start authentic classes. I'm traveling right now so it's hard. I find it discouraging when people I listen to very so much in pronunciation. 🤔
Duolingo is okay for a start but I am not drawn like I was with other languages. I don't try to speak it. In Church the few times we use it I can sing but those times are just becoming non existent! I fell in love with listening to JPII and I realized he had a heavy accent himself.
@@MensHominis Luke does excellent work. This channel brought me to studying languages. I will get there.
@@An-mei - yes, and why did the church change the rules? To go with modernity … pragmatism. The protestants have done so hundreds of years earlier and it was to their advantage. Just yesterday I read that even during Charlemagne’s time, they allowed sermons in the vernacular in the Frankish Empire because ordinary people already understood far too little Latin with their Old-French and Old-Occitan ears, not to mention the (partly only recently-converted) Germanic language speakers.
That was great. Judging by the name, Waldemar Turek is my fellow countryman from Poland.
He is indeed! See our full chat on ScorpioMartianus, link in the description
huh, I thought he was my countryman too but I'm Czech lol. Would be a perfectly normal name here too.
I'm really happy Vatican Radio is open to enthusiastic and fluent Latin speakers like you. It's a great way to generate new interest in this beautiful language
Vatican is open to all brothers in Jesus around the world
Sentire parlare l'italiano con un accento latino è incredibile
Ahah sì, facciamo parecchi latinismi in italiano ahah
@@polyMATHY_Luke è proprio la cadenza ad essere diversa! Parli perfettamente ma si sente un'influenza di un'altra lingua ed è pazzesco rendersi conto che è il latino!
That's simply AMAZING! Now I'll always listening to Vatican Radio. Grātias svmmās Magister!
You might want to reach out the Society of Saint Pius X. It’s a priestly society of the Catholic Church which still uses Latin on a daily basis. All the liturgy (mass, devine office etc.) is in Latin. I was once for a few days at seminary and the study Latin more than in other seminaries. I also know a couple of Dominican monks who speak fluently Latin. You might be interested.
This sound amazing
Another amazing video in the heart of the Latin culture. It's really cute listening to native Italians speak Latin with their special intonation and pronunciation, and I also love how Luke changes his own pronunciation to fit in, even though he prefers the classical one.
Thank you so much Luke, for bringing out this amazing content
This episode at the Vatican radio put a smile on my face and warmth in my heart. Thanks for bringing us latin lovers a dream come true. Joy to the world!
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant!!! Singing "Fly me to the moon" in Latin. I will be smiling for the rest of the day. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! Grazie
Quite a setting for an ALI pitch. Thanks Luke!
Thanks for supporting the channel!
Radio Vaticana and Radio Maria. The two radio stations that are directly hosted by god and protected by the holy spirit and, because of this, capable of being available even in the middle of the mediterranean sea, somehow.
Ahahahahahahhahah really, it is possibile receive that everywere. In Italy, noww with DAB, is more and more easy receive that
Congrats! You also have a good voice for radio.
Haha and a face for it too! Thanks
@@polyMATHY_Luke and the humour 😃
@@polyMATHY_Luke oh yeah, you could also work as an actor (or dubber).
You have a really warm and deep voice
Me parece maravilloso como puedes pasar de la pronunciación clásica, que es la que habitualmente usas, a la pronunciación "eclesiástica" que usan allí en el vaticano.
Salvete ex Colombia.
Thanks! Yes, I try to practice Ecclesiastical pronunciation now and then to make sure I can do just that.
Lets bring Latin back to our priests!!! Thank you for helping us with that!
Non so parlare latino , ma mi appassiona tantissimo. Grande! Grazie per quello che stai facendo!
Grazie per aver guardato!
I am Italian , never thought of listening to the Vatican Radio, but I'll give it a try now 😁
Incredibile! I would have never imagined Latin is spoken in media even today.
Glad you've taken part in it, Luke!
There was latin news program 'Nuntii Latini' broadcasted by Finnish national broadcaster Yle 1989-2019 and i think after they stopped broadcasting the program the Vatican started their Latin news broadcasting ”Hebdomada Papae, notitiae vaticanae latine redditae”. Btw. there is also finnish guy who sings Elvis in Latin, Jukka Ammond.
You can't imagine how exciting this is to me. Wonderful!
Love to all my Catholic Brothers around the world, we are brothers in JESUS
This makes me very happy. I feel these connections are very important. Alot of potential. Thank you so much for participating and for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
You're a real phenomenon, Mr Luke. Interestingly you have two ways of pronouncing the word 'Latin'. Keep up the good work.
Haha thanks. Yes, I have many peculiar traits in my pronunciation due to over-attention or inattention to diction.
Really fun. I went to a Novus Ordo Missae in Latin this evening, that my parish has once per week. Even at Sunday Masses during Advent and Lent my parish uses some additional Latin.
Wow, super cool! Next project: make a film in Latin.
hi, I'm Italian and I go at an Italian school, here we have different types of high schools and the classical and the scientific ones (30% of the Italian students) teach latin, obv we aren't used talking in latin but if you'd go at a student of an Italian "liceo classico" (I also do that school) he will understand you and maybe answer to you
To see how impressed the speakers themselves are makes me feel better about my bad latin exams in the past lol
Grazie assai Luke. Affascinata tutto. Tua Latina e così risonante, che fa una piacere completa.
Grazie, papà!
Amo il tuo accento e la tua voce in italiano
Grazie, Mario, sei molto gentile.
Sei un grande ti seguo da un po e vedo che parli l'italiano e il latino benissimo👍👍👍
Grazie mille! Faccio il mio meglio, ho un sacco ancora da imparare
Great news. 🎉 Love Latin language but I know it is very difficult language 😢. Cheers
Singing Frank Sinatra in Latin on Vatican radio! Inevitable
I've extensively studied German, Spanish and several other languages but the one language I never thought I would venture into is Latin. Then one day I got a random video of Luke speaking Latin in my feed and have been inspired to learn this beautiful language ever since. This is such an awesome video. You never disappoint.
If you know German and Spanish, Latin should be fairly easy for you to learn. It shares much of the cases with German and it sounds very much like Spanish. Many words are also similar to modern Spanish words.
@@marcogiuliocamurri both those languages definitely help. Some words between Spanish and Latin are even the exact same words. Te amo siempre ---> Tē amõ semper. Being familiar with cases from German also helps with the whole mindset of cases. Latin definitely takes the whole case system to the next level though. Another thing I I found interesting was German had been the only language I ever studied where you learn the principle parts of verbs together (sprechen sprach gesprochen spricht, etc.) so it was an fun surprise when I learned that it was normal to learn them in Latin as well amö amäre amåvī amãtum etc. Also knowing how to properly pronounce Spanish vowels helped with Latin pronunciation.
Ottima pronuncia standard dell'italiano, Luke! Impressionante!
Molto gentile! Ho un sacco da fare per migliorarlo, ma faccio il mio meglio
It's really a mrriage between ancient tradition and modernity
Brave man. I wish I had your level of confidence. That's a very public place to perform, and you must have deep roots to be assured your Latin won't fail you under such a high pressure environment.
That’s kind. I was actually pretty nervous, not about the Latin, but about singing, and indeed I almost forgot haha. But once we started speaking Latin I felt much more comfortable
@@polyMATHY_Luke
I noticed that later in the video. I think you beat yourself over it. But, like, to be asked to sing on the spot, a capella, without having a few moments to refresh, while on public radio, without being forewarned in a language like Latin is something I doubt even their veterans would want to attempt.
I could see the respect you got from the entire team, in spite of what you thought was a big mistake. I played piano when I was younger, and the biggest thing I was taught about public performance was how to stay cool, calm and collected after making a big mistake in the middle of a public performance and playing on... Which is exactly what you achieved.
The fact you were brave enough to show us the live footage raw, without attempting to edit out the mistake, and actually apologising for it instead of trying to justify it literally impresses me by your attitude alone. It's very professional. You're the kind of guy I feel like who has everything to gain from experience, who can crash and burn, and just get up and try again, except with a better plan for next time, and far more resilient.
Kudos! Which, if what I heard was accurate, just means praise in Greek. But I'm sure you know that already.
You improve your Latin you improve your Italian, and the same way you improve your Italian you improve your Latin
Bellissimo e interessante video! Grande Luke!
Grazie, Maria!
Not only does the Vatican have a radio station (well, many), but it is one of the earliest state-owned stations in the world, having been established by the inventor of the radio himself, Guglielmo Marconi, in 1931.
Marconi is honored inside in a small museum space.
I dont know how else to reach out but like... I feel like the thing i need to learn Latin is the Silmarillion in Latin. I feel like thats an epic that (especially because of who Tolkien was) it would be something that not only I would read but would obsess over. My god would that be dope.
It would indeed
Luke needs honorary Vatican citizenship!
Whenyou switch to Ecclesiastical Latin, does you brain switch into a different mode than when you're speaking Classical Latin, as polyglots often describe between other languages (and I guess you would experience between English, Italian, and Classical Latin)
That’s a great question. It’s definitely a different mode or switch of a sort, but not like a different language. I think in Latin often, and if it’s Ecclesiastical pronunciation it’s the exact same thought pattern and usages of idiomatic expressions; but I’ve used Ecclesiastical enough to be able to spontaneously just use Ecclesiastical automatically and fairly unconsciously with only a slightly higher effort (usually a I talk a bit slower in Ecclesiastical) than Classical.
I would imagine that this is going to be something akin to the differences between Spanish from Spain & Mexico or French from Paris & Quebec. The same but not quite the same but navigable with ease for someone who thoroughly knows one even if limited in the other. Luke is a fascinating individual and at some point once I have enough Spanish in my head to stick and not be corrupted, I must give Latin a go - it might make learning Italian easier too.
@@polyMATHY_Luke It's not just the Ecclesiastical thing... But you are also the only one using long and short vowels! When we study Latin in school, vowels length is never enforced and we just read them as if they were in Italian.
@@GianniBosio Yeah, Luke is really something. This man sacrificed all his hair to achieve genius-level language skills.
@@ordinarryalien Per aspera ad astra!
How fun!!
How cool is that? Congrats, and thanks Luke, for well representing we Yankees!
That was amazing. Congrats. You're a very talented human being.
@user-TELLEGRAM_ME omg. I'm so happy. Can you tell that again but in Latin
Thank you for helping me enter my journey into learning Latin, have you ever translated St John of the Cross' Dark Night of the Soul from Spanish to Latin? One day I'd like to translate that Spanish poem to an equivalent in Latin.
This is awesome!
This was really neat!
Excellent video. Cheers mate
Grande Luke! Con la tua passione mi hai fatto venire voglia di studiare di nuovo latino (anche se adesso non sono più al liceo)
Sono contento! Cerca il mio playlist LLPSI
Luca, you are tremendous, sir!
Very kind
Piacere mio.
Awesome!!! ¡Fantástico! 👍🏻
Magnífico! Já compartilhei com toda minha família! Muito BOM!
Altissimo livello!
Bravo! Continuez à faire vivre cette belle langue latine !!
Lucē subridet lucet! Gaudeo pro tu!
Grazie!
You have a beautiful voice.
Bravo!, Bella canzione!
i caught Vatican Radio on my shortwave radio a few times, one of the last stations who broadcast to Europe
Salve Luke, Fantástico!
Great episode as always! :) Made me want to learn Italian as well!
I was wondering if it's too late to ask for a little video that discusses various greetings in Latin related to Christmas or the Winter Solstice? I recently learned about 'bruma', and there are several invented greetings on the internet, but I don't know which one to trust in the most. Felix nativitas sounds good, but what do you think? Although we don't celebrate Saturnalia it would be interesting to hear more about that as well! Just some suggestions, if you feel like talking about them!
Great video all the priest I know are fluent in Latin, got any suggestions to learn Latin I would like to learn it.
really cool!
Please come and sing in my band in the UK next time you're here - Birmingham! Would love Latin fly me to the moon
To me, this video is historic.
Speaking of singing Latin, might you share your thoughts of pieces sung in Latin in popular culture?
One such recent example is Song of Lament from the game, Elden Ring.
This is AWESOME🎉❤ SALVE!! გამარჯობა! ✌
Old Georgian should be quite a challenge even for Luke!
@@wyqtor Georgian is not an easy one for sure.
@@wyqtor Do you have some knowledge of Old or Modern Georgian?
@@DavidJokhadze I learned the Georgian alphabet for my visit to Tbilisi 3 years ago, but that's just about it. Georgian is a very difficult language and learning resources are quite scarce.
@@wyqtor Very nice ☺️ It’s true that Georgian language is a difficult one, especially the Grammar and mostly the verb (forms and etc). The online quality material is really scarce.
by the way I went to sign up for Latin 101 at the ALI as you advertised. Too bad you don't have a sponsor coupon!!
7:50
“Siamo tutti strani”
Luke: “si”
Gratias ago summas pro hac pellicula pluris linguis edita. Macte virtute!
Fantástico, Luke!! XD
Jack Skellington in Latin, now I have seen everything! Bravo!
See the many songs in Latin with Jack Skellington on ScorpioMartianus! czcams.com/video/GDurFBI7EV8/video.html
Dang, Luke, super clutch and brave to swoon out some Frank on the spot like that. Impressive my dude. I like to simply practice my Latin homework outside for lunch and ppl think that's cool😆
God Bless you! I pray to God that you have the Grace to become catholic!
The Norbertines in Silverado, CA at St Michael's Abbey have "latin nights", where they all speak latin to eachother. If you're looking for a group of people really experienced in latin to converse with, I'd suggest reaching out to them and paying the abbey a visit!
Il latino è la fonte della nostra cultura millenaria, per questa ragione esercita un grande fascino!
Hey luke!
You should check out Julius Caeser for the new civ 6 DLC!
Finally, Old English!
Applausi!!!!
UR AWESOME AHAH❤i wouldve loved to have this playing in my dads car radio or something (if we were even in the Vatican?for some reason) its just cool to see
The Italian teacher Aloisius Miraglia is the most fluent speaker of Latin I have ever heard. Have you come across him? I expect so.
He is quite fluent, among a many who are as fluent as he.
I say these, soon you'll be part of Vatican as a Latin consultant, even as part of the State Secretariat. ;)
Hey Luke! Speaking of Latin songs, for your next pop culture analysis, could you look at two Latin songs by Japanese composer Nobuo Uematsu? Made for video games, they are the main theme for Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Advent: One Winged Angel. There is another, older version of One Winged Angel but apparently those lyrics were taken out of a compilation called Carmina Burana; this Advent version has original lyrics. They are sung by Japanese speakers in the Ecclesiastical pronunciation, so I'm curious about the quality of writing and speech!
Correction: Advent was made for a movie based off a video game. Original however was made for a game... Getting them mixed up. :p
As an Italian, it's incredible how you keep your Latin accent while speaking Italian... 😂
Ah hehe, interferenza linguistica
The latin language is very interesting, anyways good video!
Super impressive. I wonder how these Latin speakers do it. Syntactically, Latin, the Mother Tongue, is much more difficult than the Romance languages which she engendered. Is there some sort of trick to making a "dead language" flow like they do?
Well, many modern languages have similarly unusual word orders, like Japanese and Russian, both of which I can speak a little of - in all cases, it just takes practice. Thanks for the compliment
You should do a video about how autistic people make up a significant portion of the classical and fringe language (elvish, klingon, etc.) learning population, and why they don't have the same proportions when looking at common language (Spanish, English, French, German, etc.) learning populations. Thank you!
Ave Luke salvete ex Brasilia 🇧🇷
Salve ventilabrum magnum canalis tui amo linguam Latinam mirabile fuit videre te Latine loquentem in radio Vaticano
Increíble que gracias a las lenguas romances hasta una persona en Sudamérica prácticamente al otro lado del mundo entienda un poco de latín sin siquiera haberlo estudiado un poco
gosto das músicas do Enigma e do Era... tem letras em latim
Any thoughts about adding Church Slavonic to ALI roster?
Hi, have you considered reviewing the Latin the game Kingdome Come Deliverence?
Question completely unrelated, @polymathyluke : do you know the connection between the Canadian national anthem and "The Magic Flute"?
I can also sing in Latin Adeste Fideles and Ave Maria 😊
Civilization 6 just added Julius Caesar. Could you please review his voice lines?
Dear Luke, I'm appreciate yours' such superb Latin language skills!!! Really really fantastic!!!! May I ask do you speak German language? I'm looking very much forward to see you to speak it! Thank you very much!!! Gratias tibi valde!！！！！！！！
I have studied German, yes. Thanks for watching
❤❤❤
Do you believe it would be a good thing or a bad thing to substitute the restituted pronounciation in for the ecclesiastical one in the italian school system?
