How about "Quid quid latinea dictum est altum viditure? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.221.115.125 (talk) 00:58, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you mean "quidquid Latine dictum sit altum videtur", look at List of Latin phrases (P–R)#quidquid Latine dictum sit altum videtur. Michael Bednarek (talk) 05:16, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

citato supra

[edit]

Verwey & Overbeek (EVERT JOHANNES WILLEM VERWEY, JAN THEODOR GERARD OVERBEEK and K. VAN NES; Theory of the stability of lyophobic colloids. The interaction of sol particles having an electric double layer; Elsevier, New York; 1948; 205 pp.) use "c.s." on page 188, and it seems to mean "citato supra", for which a few other instances come up in a web search. Can anyone confirm this? —DIV (128.250.80.15 (talk) 01:26, 23 September 2008 (UTC))[reply]

template:section

[edit]

By adding {{section}} template before the name in the table, it is then possible to point a redirect at the specific phrase. For example dolus specialis redirect so List of Latin phrases (C-E)#dolus specialis. The table entry for doulus specialis starts with "|{{section|doulus specialis}}doulus specialis||..." and as the template contents do not show in the table there is no apparent change to the text. --PBS (talk) 12:12, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you point to such a recommendation, except for the one you inserted in Template:Section? That note ("should be avoided because it's rarely used") is disingenuous after you removed the template from about 100 articles, and doesn't give any rational reason.
{{Anchor}} carries a substantial performance penalty over {{Section}}; therefore, in lists like these which use them extensively, using the template Section is a good thing.
500 Section templates:
  Preprocessor node count: 3001/1000000
  Post-expand include size: 12000/2048000 bytes
  Template argument size: 2500/2048000 bytes
  Expensive parser function count: 0/500

500 Anchor templates:
  Preprocessor node count: 14001/1000000
  Post-expand include size: 24000/2048000 bytes
  Template argument size: 5000/2048000 bytes
  Expensive parser function count: 0/500

A better place for this discussion is probably at Template talk:Section. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 06:46, 10 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Coram publico

[edit]

Is covered in https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/de/wiki/Coram_publico#Coram at least. (I also note that de doesn't seem to interwiki here. Deliberate?) --Gwern (contribs) 07:10 10 August 2009 (GMT)

I have now added "coram publico" and a link to this page at de:Liste lateinischer Phrasen/C. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 08:50, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone?

Concordia Salus

[edit]

Was listed as "Salvation through harmony" when it is in fact closer to "Well-being through harmony," the root of the modern word salutary, to be of a beneficial nature, and "Salvation" coming "from Late Latin salvationem (nom. salvatio, a Church Latin translation of Gk. soteria), noun of action from salvare "to save."[1]Jacob2342 (talk) 06:00, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cogito Ergo Sum

[edit]

The phrase "cogito ergo sum" (translated: "I think, therefore I am".) is here explained as a "rationalistic argument used by French philosopher René Descartes to attempt to prove his own existence." This is a common misconception/myth. Descartes' purpose was to prove the existence of the mind and that the mind and soul can coexist. Ergo, that science and religion can coexist. --Kanovski (talk) 18:01, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

cum privilegio ad imprimendum solum

[edit]

This phrase, which means "with the exclusive rights to print," was used in 17th century England as a copyright notice (ex. "Jimmy Wales, cum privilegio ad imprimendum solum" meant "Copyright © by Jimmy Wales"). It appears in Act 4 Scene 4 of The Taming of the Shrew. 68.173.113.106 (talk) 23:18, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Charta pardonationis !?

[edit]

The word pardonatio is not Latin. I refrained from correcting it because a few words on I read the correct "perdonatio", hence the original author may have chosen to use "pardonatio" in the phrase; and it may be that it was some Medieval phrase with originally faulty Latin. I'd love to read a reply to this, however. Pan Brerus (talk) 18:12, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

profanity

[edit]

"A medical euphemism for the doggy-style sexual position."

profanity (other than ancient) is not a welcome addition

whoever is "editor" needs to hand his position to someone else

this "moderator" is no longer "accredited" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8806:401:AFD0:2C42:8BF6:BCCF:B5D4 (talk) 02:20, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
