    It's just filler, to see what the text looks like without a repeating pattern.

    its put on templates cause you cant read Latin so it stops you from looking at the text and focusing on the actual template

    Yea, so instead of just typing "content here" or something, you can actually see somewhat what the layout will look like.

    i think it was all based off some ancient roman speech... Not sure though.
