"I hear the Latin pronunciation is terrible, which should be a riot for my Classics friends."

Funnier yet is the fact that the Latin is perhaps 5the largest historical innacuracy. While some of the players (pilot certainly) would have known Latin, the common tongue was Greek. The Roman army and the Roman civil service were multicultural, and the language they all had in common and spoke to each other wasn't Latin, it was Greek.
