The impossiblity of a latinisation of south of europe trough latin.
And my opinion here is that BEFORE the latin in balcan as well as in
Galia and Iberia the people spoked a language lexicaly similar to
latin. The romance languages are the result of the old lexicly
substratum which was similar to latin and the influence of the latin .
Influence= some more or less percents but not the all body of a
language.
