Have an entry request? Add it to the list – but please:
- Consider creating a citations page with your evidence that the word exists instead of simply listing it here
- Think twice before adding long lists of words as they may be ignored.
- If possible provide context, usage, field of relevance, etc.
- Check the Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion if you are unsure if it belongs in the dictionary.
- If the entry already exists, but seems incomplete or incorrect, do not add it here; add a request template to the entry itself to ask someone to fix the problem, e.g.
{{rfp}}
or{{rfe}}
for pronunciation or etymology respectively.- — Note also that such requests, like the information requested, belong on the base form of a word, not on inflected forms.
Please remove entries from this list once they have been written (i.e. the link is “live”, shown in blue, and has a section for the correct language)
There are a few things you can do to help:
- Add glosses or brief definitions.
- Add the part of speech, preferably using a standardized template.
- If you know what a word means, consider creating the entry yourself instead of using this request page.
- Please indicate the gender(s) .
- If you see inflected forms (plurals, past tenses, superlatives, etc.) indicate the base form (singular, infinitive, absolute, etc.) of the requested term and the type of inflection used in the request.
- Don’t delete words just because you don’t know them – it may be that they are used only in certain contexts or are archaic or obsolete.
- Don’t simply replace words with what you believe is the correct form. The form here may be rare or regional. Instead add the standard form and comment that the requested form seems to be an error in your experience.
Requested-entry pages for other languages: Category:Requested entries.
Note: This page may also be used to request botanical and zoological names that may not actually be Latin.

- anthemis rōmāna
- anatipestifer - taxonomy
- Abderita, - etymon of English Abderite
- Aborīginēs / ab orīgine - used in the etymology of "aborigines"
- acra
- -aecus
- agrios (-a, -on), agrius (-a, -um) – from Greek ἄγριος (ágrios). Pliny has fem. acc. agrian (book 25) which is unusual and which vowel length might be dubious: Is it agriān (like Greek ἀγρίᾱν) or agrian (similar to agriam)? And is its nominative singular agriā (like Greek ἀγρίᾱ) or agria (like in Latin)? In book 26 he has agrios and acc. agrion, in book 31 agrium.
- ahaua
- albificativus, post-Classical
- albutium, pure Latin word for the asphodel; compare asphodelus and hērōum.
- aleuriosmus
- amicia
- Ancilia
- articulatus (= weak), inarticulatus (= mixed). Together with absolutus (= strong) used to express the concept of strong, weak and mixed declension in this German grammar: "Triplex est adjectivum, Articulatum, inarticulatum & absolutum.", "Articulata adjectiva" etc.
- The grammatical senses under the existing entries reflect this already (absolutus '3. which stands in the positive', etc.). Maybe to these could be added the modern grammatical terms: something like "strong adjective declension (German grammar)"?
- atmatertera: great-grandfather's grandmother's sister - part of a Latin phrase used in law
- Aurea — female name
- Aztecorum, Aztecos - should mean Aztecs, inflected forms of *Aztecus (-i, m.). Joannis Severinus Vaterus, "Linguarum totius orbis Index alphabeticus, quarum Grammaticae, Lexica, collectiones vocabulorum [...]", Berolini, MDCCCXV (1815) has "bellicosorum Aztecorum imperium" and "Aztecos e septentrionali America".

- See also w:Anton Josef Kirchweger.
- Arcades ambo, "Arcadians both": two people who are similar in some way (a line from Virgil)
B
[edit]- binōmius (“having two personal names”) — Late Latin; whence the English binomial and (probably) the French binôme.
- Could this be binominis?
- boeticus - species epithet. something to do with peas?
- looks similar to boeoticus, but wikipedia would imply a ML, NL or non-Latin misspelling of baeticus, related to Baetis = Guadalquivir.
- bulbocastanum - species epithet
- b.m.
- borkumensis - taxonomy
- basorostralis - taxonomy
- bronchiorum - taxonomy

- crista interfenestralis
- caballaria (“knighthood; cavalry; chivalry”) (ML)

cambogia- as in Garcinia cambogia See Category:Species entry using missing Translingual specific epithet- candum--the phrase is "quo recipiens vas collo candum" - variant of cantum
- cedmata — whence the English cedmata
- This appears to be either New Latin or "medical Latin" (i.e. English), but I can't determine which. --EncycloPetey 01:02, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- I think this is true New Latin. However, the term seems not to be plurale tantum in Latin: Google Books yields Latin sources when searching for cedmatis, cedmata, and cedmatibus (cedma may well be out there too, but any Latin hits get drowned out by the English acronyms CEdMA and CEDMA, the Spanish place-name Cedma, etc.). I'll see what I can do about creating a New Latin entry for cedma. — I.S.M.E.T.A. 10:03, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- This appears to be either New Latin or "medical Latin" (i.e. English), but I can't determine which. --EncycloPetey 01:02, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

claroideumas in Glomus claroideum See Category:Species entry using missing Translingual specific epithet.- coctillō (“I poach”); e.g.: “Ovum coctillo.” = “I am poaching an egg.”
- coefficio
- colossicōteros - comparative (in Greek form) of colossicos (from κολοσσικός (kolossikós), comp. (maybe: *) κολοσσικώτερος (kolossikṓteros)); see also colossicus. Vitruvius 3, 5, 9 and 10, 2, 5 have "colossicotera" and 10, 2, 13 has "colossici". "colossicon" does appear in Plin. 34. "Rhodi colossicum signum" does appear in Ampelius, Liber memoralis, book 8, but it depends on the editions as other editions have other forms like "Rhodi colossi signum" here. There is one and there might be two other Greek-based comparatives: emphaticōteros/enfaticōteros, rhētoricōteros/rhētoricōterus (e.g. Cicero, De oratore, III, 43, 171; -os/-us depends on edition).
- commisereor -- I pity, I excite compassion (similar to commiseror?)
- *comptu(s), *contu(s) - from the etymology of Italian conto
- contrarotulare, contrarotulus
- cribellāre
- canāpēum
- canōpēum (“mosquito net”)

- Seems to be a scientific Latinization of Greek κλεῖθρον (kleîthron)?

- dōnātīvus (adjective), whence dōnātīvum

E
[edit]- epigraphium
- enus (Old Latin)
- epigraphē
- epiptericum
- eriocarpum (taxonomy)
- ēlūcidatīvus
- embryonatus, post-Classical
- epididymidis as in ductus epididymidis (anatomy) — blue-linked because of an English misspelling entry
equiperdumas in Trypanosoma equiperdum. See Category:Species entry using missing Translingual specific epithet.- erithacus species epithet?, from Greek. See Erithacus Genus names are often appropriated as species epithets without capitalization. It is part of the 'grammar' or taxonomic naming.
- erythematosus as in lupus erythematosus (medical) — blue-linked because of an English entry
- et saep./et saep
etunicatumas in Glomus etunicatum See Category:Species entry using missing Translingual specific epithet.- exāmen abiturium - where German "Abitur" comes from

- fodrum - fodder / lead fother

H
[edit]- halodurans - taxonomy
- halepense taxonomy (or mul)
- hiatrica
- hominēscō
- hyacinthizōn
- hendecasyllabicus — whence the English hendecasyllabic
- hendiadys — Late and/or Mediaeval Latin. It's supposedly the etymon of the English hendiadys, but I can't find it in Lewis & Short, Gaffiot, Niermeyer, or the Oxford Latin Dictionary. The Oxford English Dictionary's entry for the English term includes the note "The Greek phrase [sc. ἓν διὰ δυοῖν ‘one by means of two’] is apparently not found in Greek grammarians, but is frequent in Servius on Virgil; in late MSS. of Servius, it appears latinized as endyadis, endyadys; Papias (12–13th cent.) has endiadis." (links and scilicet are my additions). — I.S.M.E.T.A. 06:07, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
- hēpatica (“liverwort (Hepatica nobilis)”) - Medieval
- hicce (emphatic form of hic?)
- hic + -ce. L&S in the entry hic: "More emphatic, in the original full form, hīce, haece, hōce (not, as formerly written, hicce, haecce, hocce [...]". Some younger dictionaries do have it as hice (not hīce) and don't mention hicce at all, not even as a misspelling. For older Latin, the existence of hice, haece, hoce (or hīce, haece, hōce) might be doubtful and depend on the manuscript or edition (compare Citations:haec, Citations:huic and the comment in the version history). In Medieval and older New Latin, both hice and hicce could have exist.
- hobbitus, neologism, used in best-selling Latin translation Hobbitus Ille of The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
- hoquetus, "hiccup", as seen in ety at hocket
- hydraulārius, from hydraulus
I
[edit]- ignis fatuus – see English entry

- infrafrenata
- in ictu oculi
- inter vivos
- simply inter + vivos, as in English donatio inter vivos?
- *intoxicō, 'citable' in https://apps.atilf.fr/lecteurFEW/lire/40/771. Anything unattested that appears in a reputable etymological dictionary should be ok for an appendix. IMO. Renard Migrant (talk) 17:21, 3 September 2016 (UTC)
- intraradices - as in Glomus intraradices
- Iracanus, Iracana, Iracanum, meaning Iraqi (adj.)? Etymology could be: Irac- (stem of Irac (indecl., f.), Iraca (-ae, f.), or maybe also Iracus (?), Iracum (?) meaning Iraq) + -anus.
- Iracanus: Example: "[Arab name], medicus Iracanus, i.e. sine dubio Bagdadensis et interpres meritissimus, qui [...]" in Memoriam anniversariam dedicatae ante hos CCLXXXXVIII annos scholae regiae afranae, p.36, at GB - which could mean something like: '[Arab name], Iraqi physician/doctor, that is without doubt from Baghdad (or: Baghdadi, Baghdadian) and much deserved interpreter (or: explainer, translator)'. Another one, though this might also mean Iraqi (subst.): "Ego vero, inquit Emir, unde te norim, cum ego Damascenus sim, tu sis Iracanus?" in Institutiones Arabicae linguae. Adjecta est chrestomathia Arabica, 1770, p.528.
- Iracani: Could mean Iraqis (subst). Example: "Persae, Iracani, Indi, ut Thomthom [...], et Euclides eius auctores habentur" quoted inside a German text at GB
- Iracanum: Example: "[Arab words] significare ventum Iracanum, non improbabile est" at GB - where "ventum Iracanum" could be the accusative of "ventus Iracanus" meaning "Iraqi wind".
- Iracana: Example: "Diwani carmina, ait, in diversa genera divisit, qualia sunt Iracana" in Lexicon bibliographicum et encyclopaedicum. Tomus tertius, 1842, p.259.
- irrigator - needs noun
- Iroquae (-arum, m.) or Iroqua (-ae, m.) (?), and Iroqui (-orum, m.) or Iroquus (-i, m.), and Iroquaei (-orum, m.) or Iroquaeus (-i, m.) or Iroquaeus (-a, -um; adj.) - Iroquois?
- "Singulare autem et atrox fuit apud Canadenses populos illius Iroquae dictum" (Jer. Jac. Oberlinus, Caius Cornelius Tacitus [...] Tomus quartus',' Paris, 1824, p. 303)
- "Americani Missionarii a sedibus Iroquorum daemones feliciter disturbant" (Annales ecclesiastici post cardinalem baronium [...] Tomus tertius, Paris, 1666, in the index at the end of the book)
- "In ejusdem rei terimonium Anglo-Americani ab ingenioso satis auctore advocantur. Hi, ait, et colore corporis crinibusque, et faciei lineamentis mirum quantum Aboriginibus telluris jam accesserunt. Carolinae et Georgiae incolas paululum admodum a fulva Iroquorum cute distare refert." (Disputatio inauguralis de generis humani varietate, Edinburgh/Edinburg (in Latin Edinburgum), 1808, p. 73)
- "Radices Verborum Iroquaeorum / Radical words of the Mohawk language, with their derivatives" (book title, published in New-York in 1862), contains Latin text, English text and French translations of words. (The English title could implay that Iroquaeorum means Mohawk, but the titles aren't literal translation of each other, and as a Latin word for Mohawk could have been missing or uncommon, the author could have decided to use the more general term Iroquaeorum.)
- "... sund Hurrones, Huttentoti, Iroquaei, Laponii, aliique Africae, Americae, & Locorum polarium incolae." (Summa philosophica ad mentem angelici doctoris [...] Tom. VI., 1788, p. 204)
- "In pago Ossernenon nationis Iroquaeae in boreali America" (Acta apostolicae sedis, 1943, www.vatican.va/archive/aas/documents/AAS-35-1943-ocr.pdf)
- "quos barbari Iroquaei", "quod victores Iroquaei", and "idioma Iroquaeum" (in Latin texts, but in google snippets of books with English titles)
- irvinensis
- iu - an interjection of joy like io. If attestable. It's mentioned in older grammars, but isn't mentioned in younger dictionaries. As there are Latin io (i.e. iō) and Greek ἰώ, ἰού, there could be a Latin iu and may it be in older editions.
In a Latin text, a translation of Aristophanes' work, though it could be New Latin and another term: "STREPSIADES. Io, io, gnate mi, iu, iu! ut laetor ..." - -ios - Old Latin etymon of -ius
J, K

lepturusas in Buccochromis lepturus (note Lepturus is a genus of grass)- lithophyta — Modern Latin; see lithophyta#English. See also w:Vermes.
- lithophyton — Modern Latin; see lithophyton#English
- livius - from livor#la post-Classical, fairly widely used as a specific epithet in a three genders.
- lo, claimed to be medieval Vulgar Latin, bluelinked because of other languages
- now claimed to be Old French ("Deus lo vult (Old French)"), though in other wikipedias it's still claimed to be some form of Latin. Deus and lo have Old French entries while voloir has a note about the conjugation. [2] has it as "Deus lo volt" (without identification of the language). Conrad von Orelli's Old French grammar mentions volt as form of voloir and has examples in which the words volt and vult occur.
- locabilia - post-Classical, used from at least 15th century onward in astronomical, philosophical, and theological texts: seems to mean "portable"?
- locō + -ābilis, which literally would be place-able, put-able, set-able, dispos
e-able? From older dictionaries: "Locabilis, e, verpachtbar", "locabilis, e, das zu verpachten ist", "verpachten, locare [...] das zu verpachten ist, locabilis, e". That is loan-able, lend-able. Also in an older one "†Locabilis, e. Adj. das da kan gesetzt oder an einem Ort gebracht werden. item das zu verpachten oder auszustatten ist. Cic." having both meanings.
- locō + -ābilis, which literally would be place-able, put-able, set-able, dispos

- prīmōgenitīvus
- poppyzō
- persuasoria in taxonomy
- prensiō

- parabula - alternate form of parabola (see Ps. 77:2 Vulg)
- Which Vulgata? The Nova Vulgata at www.vatican.va/archive/bible/nova_vulgata/documents/nova-vulgata_vt_psalmorum_lt.html and the Vulgatae at www.drbo.org/lvb/chapter/21077.htm and lvc.ibibles.net/019Psalms.htm#019-77 have "Aperiam in parabolis os meum" (la:s:Biblia Sacra Vulgata (Stuttgartensia)/Psalmi#LXX has "aperiam in parabola os", www.latinvulgate.com/lv/verse.aspx?t=0&b=21&c=77 has "periam in parabula os meum" as well as "ad parabulam" in 48 and "in parabulam" in 68). There might also be durable archived Vulgatae with parabula in it but that should be a misprint or Medieval or British Latin form. {{R:du Cange|parabola}} has forms with u in it, so it could exist in ML requiring something like {{qual|Medieval Latin}}.
- pedem tollere L&S: “pedem or pedes tollere, extollere (ad concubitum),” Martial 10, 81, 4; 11, 71, 8

- perpopulor (verb) to ravage
- perplexissimus - superlative of perplexus

- pinacotheca - has English, needs Latin
- ploveō (verb) to rain, variant of pluō, pluit. 3p imperfect attested in the Satyricon: "Itaque statim urceatim plovebat..." (chapter 44). Impersonal verb? (Most descendants are)
- Dictionaries only have "urceatim plovebat (vulg. for pluebat), Petr. 44, 18." and for pluō "usu. impers. [= usually impersonal]". IMHO there should be no entry (*)ploveō (2nd conj.) or rather (*)plovō (3rd conj. like pluō), but just a note in pluō/pluit and an entry plovēbat. However, there is an entry Reconstruction:Latin/plovo.
- praeconizāre (“announcing the election of a bishop or cardinal”) – Church Latin (French préconiser, English preconize)
- praenuntiātīvus (“announcing beforehand”, “prophetic”), post-Classical; whence the English prenunciative

- quantulumcunque c.f. William Petty's Quantulumcunque concerning Money (‘something, be it ever so small, about money’
- quere (bluelinked because of Galician)
- quid pro quo needs adding to the list. As in ' to do something for someone in return for a favour or service they have already done for you'. i.e, 'you scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours'; or in layman's terms, to repay a favour, often in kind, and not in the form of a cash payment, but rather via performing some service, assistance, or favour, to even the debt.
- Since it literally means "something for something" this would be SoP in Latin, wouldn't it? Furius (talk) 20:11, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
- quis,
quitas derivative forms from the verb quire. 'Quis' and 'Quit' have pages but the pages do not know the verbal forms of the word and so someone looking up the latin word used in a verbal context will not be able to translate it. - qui tacet consentit means silence gives consent in Latin.

- schistos (-a, -on) - Dictionaries sometimes mention unattested forms, but this time the feminine is attested in Pliny's work. Attic Greek is σχιστός (skhistós) (-ή, -όν), so an explanation for the change from η (ē) to a is missing. Did he Latinise the feminine so that it is almost like schistos (-ē, -on) and schistus (-a, -um) with many forms being unattested, or does his form come from another Greek dialect (compare Appendix:Ancient Greek dialectal declension#First declension)?
- sēdecuplus (“sixteenfold”, “sedecuple”)
- selas n with plural selā from σέλας (sélas) - considering the declension it could be one-of-a-kind word
- The references given by dictionaries might just be mentionings:
- Apul., de mundo: "Selas autem Graeci vocant incensi aeris lucem; horum pleraque iaculari credas (alia labi), stare alia."
- Sen., quaestiones naturales: "Fulgores, inquis, quomodo fiunt, quos Graeci sela/Sela appellant?"
- The references given by dictionaries might just be mentionings:
- semetipsum - seems to be semet + ipsum, but don't both mean himself/itself... itself itself? is it an intensive, like its very own self?
- Georges states "semet ipsum, ipso, ipsos, ipsas, oft in der Vulg." where "Vulg." should abbreviate Vulgata, so it would mean "often in the Vulgate (Latin Bible)". Maybe the usage can be explained by the Greek text?
