Some revision is necessary here. Cleopatra did not speak Latin. The languages that she spoke, with the exception of her native Greek, were all semitic languages based upon the Egyptian. According to Plutarch, she spoke the languages of the Ethopians, Troglodytes, Hebrews, Arabians, Syrians, Medes, and Parthians. These were in addition to her native Greek and Egyptian.
