@Outsider A lot of the stuff we use as 'English' is originally latin so doesn't matter if you didn't really learn it cause you still use it lol. Kain was referring to general knowledge of the fact since it wasn't Italian or even restricted to Italy.

Actually some First Aid in English books have the abbreviation 'RIP' as Requiescat in pace, with Rest In Peace as an alternative. That's reason why I stopped using 'Rest in Peace'. Sadly general schooling does not really go into these things unless you apply for it. I think learning some latin, or at least the foundation of a language, is a great way of developing the mind besides just learning it by itself. It also allows for better international understanding because English tends to misuse or mistranslate the original terms. Happens vice versa as well, but that occurrence is more region-specific.
