   It is only unusual the first few times you see it. Have a look at the   
   appendixes Del Ray has put in the back for Negima due to the complex nature   
   of the latin/greek/spells/myhtology that crops up. It would be the ideal way   
   to introduce Japanese cultural aspects and slang and educate us.
