I was invited to partake in the 100th episode of Anima Latina on Vatican Radio, where I got to speak briefly in Latin with Monsignor Waldemar Turek, and you can see the whole video about the show on ‪@polyMATHY_Luke‬ Vatican Radio with Latin Speaking American...

But in this video you'll be able to hear my full conversation in Latin with Monsignor Turek. Enjoy!

The priest was waiting for this moment all his life.

A Polish priest speaking Latin with an American youtuber in Rome, on the Vatican radio. The times we live in, man

It's impressive how that gentleman speaks Latin so fluently and makes it sound so contemporary. It's sounds like some kind of Italian dialect spoken like that.

As a Polish Catholic, im utterly amazed by this polish priest, whose Latin is just phenomenal. It was a pure pleasure listening to you both talking Latin ❤

Hearing them speak Latin just feels so natural. Like I am listening to two people having a normal conversation. There's no stuttering, hesitation, or confusion. Just two men having a perfectly normal conversation but in a language foreign to most of us. Truly they are masters of their craft.

The priest makes it sound like Latin is still a living language, impressive

As a catholic seminarian studying Latin, this extremely impressive and inspiring! Let's restore the primacy of Latin in the liturgy!

As an italian, i was always fascinated with how the latin sounded so natural and even practical, even after so many years latin is still a very beautiful language.

That Monsignor has a really fluid ecclesiastical Latin. It shows how much love he has for the language. As a native Spanish speaker it was fun being able to follow along the conversation without reading the subtitles.

I love how everyone else around them is like "okay we'll just let them geek it out as hard as they like, they're having genuine fun right now and so are we."

As a Filipino Catholic, hearing people speaking in straight Latin just amazes me. Awesome.

The Polish priest-dude totally nailed it! What a legend!

This reminds me of a story I read years ago about a priest who was visiting China. He met a member of the Underground Church, who spoke no English, and of course he couldn't have his translator with him, in case the guy ratted.
So they realised they could chat in Latin, and had a long, interesting session together.

Such fluent church Latin, really had a native language vibe to it a pleasure to listen to

@gauntlettcf5669 3 years ago

As an Italian and a Catholic, your video makes me want to learn latin, both Classical and Ecclesiastical 😍

@snix8242 2 years ago (edited)

My latin teacher here in spain can also speak fluent latin and you remind me so much of her! People like you two are keeping this beautiful language alive, gracias!

Man, I could listen to this all day. Latin is such an elegant and powerful language.

It's crazy that this is the language that slowly tied Europe together over the course of 2,000 years and then it fell out of use so suddenly. So many important conversations, documents, and rituals throughout history were done in Latin and now most people would consider you smart just for knowing a couple words or phrases.
