Perlegenda
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Latin perlegenda, substantive use of the neuter plural of perlegendus (“which ought to be read over or gone through”), future passive participle (gerundive) of perlegere (“to read over/through; scan, survey, run one’s eyes over; recount”).
Noun
[edit]- A collection of items which ought to be read over or gone through.
Usage notes
[edit]Although the word perlegenda is the Latin plural of perlegendum, in English the word perlegenda is taken as a singular. The word perlegenda does not apply to a list of things to be read, but applies only to the collection of things themselves. Common examples would include a pile of unopened mail or a stack of unread books.

Yolo
