I took three years of Latin back in high school and forgot just about all of it! However I remember a case where you changed the ending of an island based on whether or not it was bigger than Crete. Vocative or locative or something

What would you need latin for? Unless you care for history/rome/ancient text/religion/general culture (which nobody in highschool gives a damn about), it's pretty damn unimportant IMO.

You are correct. The locative case is used to indicate locations for cities, most islands, and a few other words, such as "domus" (home) which becomes "domi" in the locative.

Vocative is the case of address. "Et tu, Brute?"

And you're pretty damn retarded.

Only an illiterate like you finds latin is unimportant.
