Latin to English translation

One of the most influential languages in the world, Latin developed in Italy and spread until it was spoken across the entire breadth of the Roman Empire. While no longer used widely as a spoken language, Latin has continued to develop, just as other languages have, over the centuries since it originated. 

Latin to English translation is required by several industries in the modern world, most notably the medical and scientific sectors, as well as the academic and ecclesiastical worlds. Tomedes has been asked to translate everything from religious texts to ancient biology books to lists of proverbs from Latin to English. Despite Latin’s status as a non-spoken primary or secondary language in the modern world, demand from translation of it into English remains high.

The languages known as the modern Romance languages derived from Latin origins. Some of the most widely spoken Romance languages in the world today are Spanish, Portuguese and French. Nowadays, the Romance languages have more than 800 million native speakers across the globe, demonstrating the value of ancient Latin in contributing to the modern world.

Today, areas such as taxonomy and certain religions still use Latin frequently. Latin is also used in the creation of new words for a range of derivative languages, such as English.
