A list of cognates in romance languages[edit]

Hello,

Is there a downloadable file available online, with an extensive list of cognates in romance languages, alongside the Latin original word?

Something in a format similar to:

Spanish: ojo French: œil Italian: occhio Portuguese: olho Romanian: ochi Latin: oculus

Online resources I have found such as this offer a limited list of a few hundreds words, without the Latin original word.

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.125.101.131 (talk) 07:05, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You might want an etymological dictionary of Romance languages, like this one. Шурбур (talk) 16:17, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I'd like to ask for translations of the following Latin phrases:

1. "Sentire non est corporis sed animae per corpus"

2. "Pondus meum, amor meus"

I believe both are from the work of Saint Augustine. FreeKnowledgeCreator (talk) 07:12, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
