Latin is the new grammar. A recently released book on the subject has become one of the hottest gift books for this Christmas in the UK. Like Eats, Shoots and Leaves,Amo, Amas, Amat... and All That takes what is normally an intimidating subject and tries to make it fun (apparently with much success). At the moment it is ranked 27th on Amazon.co.uk. According to The Independent, publishers are expected to jump on this trend and produce a deluge [from the Latin, diluvium, diluvii, flood] of copycat books. Pretty good for a "dead" language.
