What's with the nuntii/nuntia dichotomy running through the mediawiki messages? Both forms exist, to be sure, but according to L&S nuntius is much more common. --Iustinus 03:02, 16 Iulii 2006 (UTC)
- I was always reprimanded sharply, throughout the entirety of my formal latin education, to recognize the difference between nuntius and nuntium, the former being the messenger, and the latter being the message. Could be an Ecce thing, but... Main intention was to change things that read "messages" instead of "nuntius/ium". Now that I check, North and Hillard have nuntius, Traupman has both, and I'm afraid I don't have the OLD handy to do a survey.--Ioshus Rocchio 03:15, 16 Iulii 2006 (UTC)

- Weird. Well I assume you already know how to get the L&S, but just in case that's here. You can use that to look up/at specific loci classici too. --Iustinus 04:09, 16 Iulii 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, of course, perseus has saved my life many a night-before-a-term-paper-is-due. Re nuntium/ius, change back whatever you want. I just don't want it to be in english!--Ioshus Rocchio 04:26, 16 Iulii 2006 (UTC)
