Can anyone tell me what this entry is about? I can't find it in the OLD.
tus: Latin nouns, Cactus2000
Declension of tus, declension tables of many Latin nouns, with all cases.
latin.cactus2000.de
I can't understand how anyone could have failed to find this word.
We already mentioned tus, turis. But it has nothing to do with Terry's word, which is supposedly indeclinable and means something different.tus, turis n. is a) declinable and b) means frankincense
Okay.Yes. Nobody's denying any of that. Terry was asking if the word as described on latin.cactus2000.de was correct. We all said it wasn't.
Yes, it is. You could also say "Punkt", I think (at least I would do that) ... but sometimes you need that technical term to demonstrate the difference. For example, in the card game Skat, 'Augen' denotes the value of a card while 'Punkte' refers to the number of points you gain or lose for a game.Thrilled to know the German for 'pip', which is evidently 'eye'? Das Auge, nicht wahr?
What about that?PS
Recently came across this Latein Woerterbuch, Lateinisch-Deutsch; Deutsch-Lateinisch published by area verlag gmbh, Erfstadt (date?), printed in Czech Republic 2007.
