Wait until you learn that the letter J wasn't invented until the 1500's.
What? Who invented the letter J?

Just feels kinda Roman privilege to assume the almighty wants to hear Latin.
if I've learned anything from fantasy based isekai mangas, the words are meaningless. it's the intent of the caster that does it.

The Italians of all people.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I think the Catholic Church does Latin because that was the language the first pope (Saul/Paul) was given his revelation in.
Omniscient being(s) would, of course, understand any language.
The weave/astral is manipulated by intelligence/will and the somatic component if any is just to provide caster focus.

The rules are so cherry picked it literally doesn’t matter what you believe in the bigger context. Religion wants mindless servitude and will say whatever you need to hear to gaslight yourself into believing it’s real.

An omnipotent and omniscient being probably doesn't give a shit about which language you use...or, being omnipotent, you actually can't address it in any other way than it wants you to.
My headcanon is that Latin is used both because it's traditional and because it's fairly grammatically precise. You can call a spell in any language, but a grammatically precise one helps focus on the specific outcome you want.
