They don't speak Latin in Latin America. The person blotted out is the dumbass.

Sure, they might have a solid head start with sharing it as an ancient root language, but they're very, very much not speaking Latin natively.

Hell, I bet most doctors know more actual Latin than random speakers in Latin America.

with "these people" the commentor means the person that thought latin americans spoke latin and perhapt the people who made said Ad. They didn't mean Latin Americans

Some people need a joke explained. Don't hate the messenger.

I can't tell if you're serious, or trolling at a different level.

I like it, either way.

You replied to a user making fun of the Latin America commentator, and said reply reads as an attempted correction. Perhaps your joke explanation would be better received as a top level comment.

Way I read it, you're not the messenger. You would rather be the target audience.

[–] MotoAsh@piefed.social 0 points 5 months ago (3 children)

rofl you don't think I understand how rare latin is? You judgemental pricks are a different breed. A breed of shitstains.

Of course latinos speak Latin!

Otherwise they'd be Spaniards!

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It blows some dumb people's mind when I tell them we don't even technically speak Spanish. It's specifically Castilian. Spain has over a dozen different variations that might as well be different languages. And Latin American Spanish includes another half dozen.

Castillian is still Spanish.

adj. Perteneciente o relativo al español (‖ lengua). Léxico español. Sin.: castellano.

What you said is equivalent to saying that madrileño ir sevillano isn't castellano. Yeah no, dialects are still part of the language and Castellano is a dialect of Español.

might as well be different languages.

No. Dialects are not different languages. We technically do speak Spanish, you are technically using the word technically wrong. Sorry to be a pedantic asshole but words have meanings.

As the "woosher" mentioned, you are not the messenger you think you are. There is nothing in the original comment that indicates they were speaking about the image poster instead of the image comment. You assumed.
