Detailed explanation-1: -Classical Latin, the language of Cicero and Virgil, became “dead” after its form became fixed, whereas Vulgar Latin, the language most Romans ordinarily used, continued to evolve as it spread across the western Roman Empire, gradually becoming the Romance languages.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Romance languages are a group of related languages all derived from Vulgar Latin within historical times and forming a subgroup of the Italic branch of the Indo-European language family. The major languages of the family include French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Romanian.
Detailed explanation-3: -The name Latin derives from the Italic tribal group named Latini that settled around the 10th century BC in Latium, and the dialect spoken by these people.
