A fellow grew up on the east coast where scrod, the fish dish, is considered
quite a delicacy. His company posted him to the west coast, where that
particular fish is not found. Getting back to the east coast, he got off
the plane (obligatory aviation content) at JFK and hopped a cab for
downtown. His first question to the cabby was if the cabby knew where he
could get scrod in New York.

The cabby answered, "Buddy, I've hoid dat question ten t'ousand times but
that's the FOIST time I ever hoid it in de plupoifect subjunctive."

No need for Latin perhaps, but the French, Spanish, Italian and some
related English words have their roots in the Latin verb for love, amo.
