In 27 BC?!
I think that the etymology has to be redone, I don't believe that Titus Livius wrote the phrase as is in 27 BC. English as we know today didn't even exist at the time!

 * I think the idea is that it is a word-for-word translation from the original Latin to the expression as we know it today. Many of our words, phrases, and idioms are very directly from Latin in that sense, even when they sound and look different. DCDuring TALK 03:42, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
