Latīnus (feminine Latīna, neuter Latīnum, adverb Latīnē); first/second-declension adjective
With verbs of translation, the neuter singular is generally used for both the target and source languages: librum ē Graecō in Latīnum reddō ("I am translating a book from Greek into Latin").
Aside from the latter, language adjectives are extremely rarely used on their own in pre-Classical, Classical and Late Latin, becoming more common not until well into the medieval period; adverbs like Latīnē are used instead, e.g. Latīnē loquantur ("they should speak Latin"). For situations where this isn't possible, e.g. as the subject of a verb, the noun lingua must be included: Lingua Latīna placet, et prōdest! ("Latin is a joy, かつ is useful!").
First/second-declension adjective.
