I never said Latin verb conjugations aren't tricky(which in my opinion, they aren't), but that they don't have the same way of conjugating as Spanish to show who is speaking and who is being spoken to. Although I am not positive that is how Spanish is conjugated, I have just heard that. You can't just say "of course not. Latin is very close to those languages" because that is not the point of this thread. If you feel that Slavic languages aren't closer to Latin in grammar than the Romance languages then you should explain how the romance languages are closer to Latin than the Slavic languages.
