After taking Latin for two years, I can still say that in general I prefer English because of the number of words there are and how specific you can get with them. However, I prefer Latin in some cases because it is simple, and conveys what you want with fewer words. Some phases I commonly use in English are actually quite amusing when you translate them literally from the Latin equivalent.

Anyway, one of my favorite phrases is "Carpe Diem." 
Most people know the translation to be 'Seize the day!'
But actually, the literal translation is "Pluck the day!" The basic meaning is there, but stated in the literal words, it's much more refreshing. ^^
