Vita pura. ( If I guess correctly. )
We don't know Jesus spoke anything other than Aramaic, Galilean Hebrew, maybe a smattering of Greek on account of the Hellenists.
The chances are good the Romans knew enough Hebrew to get by. Jesus being an educated Jew may have known some latin given the Romans were an occupying force, but I don't know of an instance when he spoke latin.
" Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum ' is more a tradition than established fact on the inscription on the cross. The Jews certainly understood it as they were offended by it and Pilate made it a prominent document for all to see.
I'm open to correction.
