Latin. Sense: “A personification of the star in the comedic play Rudens by Plautus.” Tagged by Apunite on 6 April (“WT:CFI”), not listed. J3133 (talk) 06:51, 27 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Deleted, I don't think we need to consider one play's personification of the star a separate sense. Anything can be personified, anyway; what would the Dictionary think of it? What would Vocabulary say if it were talking to Grammar and a cloaked (sheathed) Occam's Razor? etc. - -sche (discuss) 02:40, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
 * User:Bragz created quite a few (c. 170) of these in March 2012. You can search for 'Plautus incategory:"Latin Proper nouns"' DCDuring (talk) 19:17, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I was somewhat sympathetic because the names are used for genus names and specific epithets. But I have a user page which has the information useful for taxonomic name etymologies. DCDuring (talk) 19:20, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
