And you would absolutely be correct, after clarification. Only difference is that when Latin was supreme, literacy was scarce and only available to the wealthy. Today, schooling is the only thing available to the poor. The average Arab is underemployed and over educated. While among the wealthy, Western languages and just complete illiteracy is popular (see any "heir" give a speech and you will see a man at war with grammar.)
