Further to this, I send learning Latin with a friend and being able to use it as a private language.

I come from a bilingual family, so I already have the use of Gujarati as a private language. One of my friends is exceptional at French and we use that as our private language on occasion. Now, I have Latin with two more of my friends.

I love private languages. The ability to connect one-to-one with no inteference in the midst of others...

Some may consider us rude, but tough luck to them. If you want to know what we're saying, go out and learn the language.
