The Finnish Broadcasting Company (YLE)'s Nuntii Latini (news in Latin) reaches an audience of 75,000

Saturday, October 24, 2009


YLE's Nuntii Latini is perhaps the most prominent example of news in spoken Latin today, and according to this article in Spanish it reaches an audience of 75,000.

The rest of the article is about why Finland likes the language so much, what the country did for Latin in 2006 when it had the European presidency, the relationship between Latin and Spanish, etc. Worth reading if you can read Spanish but the most interesting part for me was the number in the beginning.

Don't forget that YLE also has a bulletin board here for written communication between users in Latin as well, with a total of 8203 posts. Right now a discussion on Berlusconi is particularly popular.
