Latin was the official language of the empire. It has influenced many languages in the continent of Europe, many of which are the major languages of the world.
The languages that come from Latin are described as the Romance Languages, the main ones are:
French, Spanish, Italian, and Romanian.
However, many languages show influence of Latin, though not being considered a Romance language. One great example would be English. English is considered a Germanic language, but is a mix of Germanic and French, thus indirectly influenced by Latin.
There is also the Latin Alphabet, which is used by most languages spoken in Europe (Germanic and Romance).

In Gaul the presence of Roman settlers and centuries of interaction with the Romans thoroughly latinised the Celtic languages there. So much so that French is a Romance language, that is a language that is derived from Latin. Elements of the original Celtic language still remain. The same can be said of languages of the Celts who lived in some parts of Spain.
The Romans spoke Latin and they took the language with them as they expanded. At least five major European languages are based on Latin. These languages are known as the Romance languages--Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Romanian. English too, has a strong Latin influence, although is is not actually a "grandchild" of Latin.
Romans were greatly influenced by the culture of Greece.
The Romans wrote in their own language which was Latin.
