Ecclesiastical Latin

**Ecclesiastical Latin** is a historical variety of the Latin language that developed from Late Latin and Vulgar Latin for use in Western Christian (especially Roman Catholic) liturgy, theology, and administration, and is characterized by Christianized vocabulary, distinctive phonological and stylistic norms, and continuous use from late antiquity through the medieval period and into the modern Church.
