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)


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

citato supra
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))

template:section
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). The table entry for doulus specialis starts with " |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)


 * For more consistency within Wikipedia, it is recommended to use the frequently used template Anchor instead of the rarely used template "section". --Vigilius (talk) 00:53, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Can you point to such a recommendation, except for the one 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.

Coram publico
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)

Concordia Salus
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." Jacob2342 (talk) 06:00, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

Cogito Ergo Sum
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)

cum privilegio ad imprimendum solum
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 &copy; 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)

Charta pardonationis !?
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)

profanity

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