Words should have meaning, but concepts like 'Latin' or 'American'  
cannot create meaning in a world where they don't exist. Latin is an
especially nasty no-no. You can easily understand why if you share my feeling
of disgust upon seeing a TV movie which features a time machine called
'Aquila' or an RPG where the protagonist is named Corvus.
