Protest is from the Latin protestari.
Agriculture is from the Latin agricultūra.

lol I knew they were latin, thats what I was saying. He was saying that words had a latin origin, which was understandable. Agriculae (1st declention neuter) is a latin word yes, but that doesn't mean agriculture isn't an English word. It's an english word just with an inspiration from latin. Thats basically what vendetta is. An italian word that derived from latin woooo #letsendthis
