Kardinaldyderne er en betegnelse fra oldtidens Grækenland.

Nej, betegnelsen er latinsk og stammer ikke fra Grækenland. Derimod er begrebet Kardinaldyd af græsk oprindelse.

"Those who recite the Divine Office find constantly recurring what seems to be the earliest instance of the word cardinal as applied to the virtues. St. Ambrose, while trying to identify the eight Beatitudes recorded by St. Matthew with the four recorded by St. Luke, makes use of the expression: "Hic quattuor velut virtutes amplexus est cardinales"." http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/03343a.htm
