Synopsis

Explore a classic reference of Latin language echoes in English meanings. This book, an appendix to the Latin Gradus, classifies epithets by their English sense and provides many Latin forms for quick learning and comparison. It helps readers see how common descriptors are expressed across languages, bridging old glossaries with modern understanding.

The pages frame a wide range of words—from vivid colors and qualities to objects, virtues, and social terms—offering concise Latin terms followed by English equivalents. It’s a handy resource for students, writers, and scholars who want to grasp how Latinate descriptors map to everyday English.

- Quick access to Latin epithets and their English meanings

- Helpful cross-references for broader language exploration

Ideal for readers of linguistic reference works, classical study, and anyone building a palette of historically grounded descriptors.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
