    Yeah. It's been said a quarter million times already.

    Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec is not Latin, but an anagram designed to sound like Latin.

    However, the point people don't seem to be getting is why it's supposed to sound like Latin. Because the rest of the song is in Latin and that needs to fit.

    FLWV is orchestration, which means you get vocals and strings!

    Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec is, as stated, not latin, and an anagram for Succesion of Witches and Love.

    For those who doubt or have heard that is is also latin, standing for whatever, two points. The first is that there is no V sound in latin, though this debatable considering how anglecised the language became later. the second being, there is no letter W. The sound for W is designated by V, and the V as in Violet or Violin does not exist.

    I highlighted the parts that make my point. People have stopped saying that fithos lusec wecos vinosec was Latin a long time ago. The part people fail to understand is that it was designed to sound like Latin to fit the remainder of the song which is also Latin. The fact that it is an anagram makes it impossible to omit letters that wouldn't be used in Latin when making it sound like Latin, but I still think they did well with what they have.
