kadamitas

• Historische Grammatik der lateinischen Sprache: "Dass das nach Marius Victor. Gr. L. VI 8, 15 K. von Pompeius gebrauchte kadamitās"
• Die lateinische Sprache (W. M. Lindsay, translated by Hans Nohl): "Nach Mar. Vict. 8. 15 K hielt sich Pompeius an die alte Schreibung und Aussprache kadamitas für călămătas"
• Proceedings of the Philological Society for 1846-47 and 1847-48, Vol. III: "Now we are assured by the grammarian Marius Victorinus, p. 2456, that Pompey always wrote the substantive in the form kadamitas"

That would give 1 mentioning, 0 usages. While Latin is a LDL and hence mentionings are sufficient per CFI, Marius Victor. is not an accepted source per ALA. --幽霊四 (talk) 16:07, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

The list is not exhaustive nor is WT:ALA binding. I added the quote, RFV passed. Fay Freak (talk) 19:00, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

We could possibly even add an inflection table; other sources mention inflected forms (also attributing them to Pompey):

• 1659, Kaspar Schoppe, G. Scioppii Grammatica philosophica, page 158:

  Victorinus : Kadamitatem veteres & scribebant & dicebant pro calamitatem. Communionem enim habuerunt literhæ^[sic] apud antiquos, ut dinguam & linguam : dacrimis & lacrimis : capitodium & capitolium, sella a sede, olere a odore.

• 1842, Heinrich Meyer, Oratorum romanorum fragmenta, page 394:

  Marius Victorinus De Orthographia 1. 1. 4, 4. p. 8 ed Gaisford : Gneius Pompeius Magnus et scribebat et dicebat Kadamitatem pro Kalamitatem.

• 1898, Harvard University Department of the Classics, Selections from Latin Poets with Brief Notes, page 13:

  I. dacrumis: older form of lacrumis, cf. dingua and lingua. We are told that Pompey prefrred the.old spelling and pronunciation kadamitates instead of calamitates.
