most of these languages have undergone large restructurings, especially Hebrew. Don't know about the others, though.
The Basque language might be the oldest still spoken language in Europe.

Had five years of Latin in school, but I don't "speak" it. I cannot actually believe that people are able to speak it
Latin, but I never get to use it. When people ask me to say something I just tell them the long form date.
if i spoke with an ancient hebrew speaker i probably wouldnt understand 90% of what theyre saying
As far as I remember, it wasn't spoken even in Ancient Rome, was it? People spoke a simplified version
Yeah, two of them

commoners indeed spoke vulgair latin

If you consider Coptic the true successor of Egyptian even if it has a ton of Greek loanwords, then yes we do have "Egyptian" speakers, mainly coptic priests though. Our Arabic has many Egyptian loanwords that people are unaware of but they're a negligible percentage of the dialect.
What, no? Korean.
whats the other 1 you speak
yes, also aramaic and hebrew are almost the same. learning one if you know the other is trivial.

i've literally read some ancient aramaic text and i understood most of the words from knowing modern hebrew.
