I love using the ficticious word Googlando in Latin, as in Quidni haec Googlando quaeram? This gets the point accross and makes people laugh (much more so than, say, Quidni haec Googlem? or explorem Googles ope? would). --Iustinus 17:52, 23 Ianuarii 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I was going to include Googlere as an example of how "to google" has become a regularized verb in English. Googlando is good.--Ioshus Rocchio 17:59, 23 Ianuarii 2006 (UTC)

Although, I suppose it should be googlare...--Ioshus Rocchio 17:08, 24 Ianuarii 2006 (UTC)
We're not speaking in Latin here than lol. 84.13.226.191 17:25, 30 Maii 2006 (UTC)

Immo, certe hic loquimur latine, tu nescis?--Ioshus Rocchio 18:00, 30 Maii 2006 (UTC)

[recensere] Google, -es

Presumably a greek declension pattern.--Ioshus Rocchio 17:16, 26 Augusti 2006 (UTC)

Seemingly, and doing so in Latin with real Greek words is perfectly historical, but why with a nonsense English word? Maybe it's rightly Gugula, a regular first-declension diminutive of *guga, an unattested development from gula, 'gourmandizing, gluttony': the old Romans, too busy to be precise in such matters, kept mispronouncing gulula as gugula. ;) IacobusAmor 18:40, 26 Augusti 2006 (UTC)
Silly though it may be, Google, -es is the attested declension in their official Latin translation --Iustinus 20:40, 26 Augusti 2006 (UTC)
