Justinian is considered to be a last Roman emperor to speak Latin as a first language. What does this fact imply about the chang
solmaris [256]

This implies that the Western empire had ceased to be truly "Roman," as it had been taken over by Germanic tribes.  And in the Eastern empire, Greek language  proved more long-lasting than the Latin language.


I might add a little detail about the Greek and Latin languages in the Roman Empire.  Ever since the conquests of Alexander the Great  in the 4th century BC, the Mediterranean world in general experienced "Hellenization." Or we might call it "Greekification."  The <em>koine </em>(that is "common") Greek language became a common language throughout the lands where Alexander had cast his influence.  When the Romans took over those lands, Greek remained a commonly spoken language.  So Latin was the official language of the Roman empire and Romans themselves were native Latin speakers.  But Greek had become the language of international commerce.  When the New Testament was written in the early AD era, it was written in Greek for that reason.  

So, in the Western Roman Empire, Latin remained spoken and was the official language of government, but with Greek spoken alongside Latin in the marketplaces and cities.  In the Eastern (or Byzantine) empire, Greek was predominantly spoken, while Latin remained known by educated persons, especially in government.  And Greek did become the official language of the Byzantine Empire by the time of emperor Justinian.  Justinian's famous law code, the <em>Corpus Iurus Civilis ("Body of Civil Law") </em>was published in both Greek and Latin editions.

How early colonists were able to get their houses built quickly<br> Help please
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The houses built by the first English settlers in America were small single room homes. Many of these homes were "wattle and daub" homes. They had wooden frames which were filled in with sticks. The holes were then filled in with a sticky "daub" made from clay, mud, and grass. And just judging from these recourses it didn't take long to gather the material to build it.
