The question before that is "Which Latin?" There was 'official' Latin, and then there was also 'vulgar' Latin or 'Latin as she is spoke on the streets'. You can see the same effect with English today. First there is 'Queen's English' and then there is everyday English as spoken on the streets of many different countries around the world. Is Ebonics English? Maybe, but probably not. Is Australian English with its different pronunciation and vocabulary still 'Queen's English'? Probably not. That same thing happened with Latin. There is no one date that you could designate as the date on which people stopped speaking Latin. You could even specify somewhere around 1960 as the last Latin date because that was when the Catholic Church stopped using Latin for its Liturgical Ceremonies.
