What is the significance of the Latin names of species of organisms for science?

In the scientific literature, every living organism has a double name in Latin. Carl Linnaeus suggested giving each organism such a name. In it, the first word denotes the name of a genus of a living organism, and the second – the name of a specific species. For example, the city swallow, the barn swallow and the coastal swallow belong to the same genus – the swallow, but are different species of this genus. The double name in Latin allows scientists of any country to understand what kind of species they are talking about.
