    • @NebelNexus
      @NebelNexus 6 років тому +12

      It's pronounced like Italian mostly in Italy because of the Ecclesiastical tradition which kept using Latin until the 1960s when it was permitted to celebrate Mass in languages other than Latin. There are many solid proofs that show that Classical Latin wasn't pronounced like Italian, especially when it comes to consonants: v didn't exist, neither did "soft" g or c. Phonetics change during time, that's why starting from a common Language phonetic systems of languages like French, Spanish and Italian differ from one another. In some places in Sardinia, however, c and g are still pronounced as always hard, which remained unchanged from Latin.

    • @maoudante6006
      @maoudante6006 6 років тому +8

    • @jenniferjudge2425
      @jenniferjudge2425 10 років тому +9

      Tommaso Napoli Ivan is right. The ecclesiastical way of speaking is very Italian and is usually how songs are choirs will sing Latin; however, most classics departments in the US will use the restored Classical pronunciation which is the best approximation of what Latin sounded like in 1st AD Rome. His pronunciation according to this standard is very good.

      Jingle Bells in Latin! (Translated by Charles Mierow)
      Nives, glacies, nox, puertia!
      Risus decet, nunc decent carmina!
      Laetos iuvat nos ire per agros!
      Traha fert velociter, et cachinemus nos!
      CHORUS: Tinniat, tinniat tintinnabulum
      Labimur in glacie post mulum curtum!
      Tinniat, tinniat tintinnabulum!
      Labimur in glacie post mulum curtum!
      Me nuper miserum temptavit lunae lux!
      Mox assidebat tum puella facti dux!
      Vecti subito in nivis cumulos
      Caballus est perterritus et tunc eversi nos!
      CHORUS.
      Solum scintillat, nive candidum,
      Repetatur nunc concentus carminum!
      Canities abest morosa omnibus!
      Puellulas cum pueris delectat hic cursus.
