Perindie?

Post by Ursinus »

Is anyone familiar with the term perindie? I am having difficulty finding a dictionary entry for the word.

Never heard of it, but according to Logeion it means the same thing as pridie (on the day before, the previous day). See the word's entry.

Vale,

You also had a really strange word nebes (Nebes propinqua on the second page of your Comenius project [ :) ]), which I could find nowhere. The best I can come up with is that it should be nūbēs, but maybe some of commentators can help on this.

Evan, in the future it would be helpful if you could put a link to the page of the book you are transcribing from.

Thanks all for your help. Bedwere, I will do that in the future. One time you sent me a link to a googlebook already on a specific page. How did you do that, Bedwere?

As to nēbēs, I too would like to know why its there. It is on page two of the following pdf: https://1drv.ms/b/s!An7_1I0nY5pg0nIoNSn2tNyUd3bo. Part of the reason I am doing this is to resolve some of these confusions. Otherwise, the text might be frustrating to beginning Latin students.

When you are the specific page, click on the link icon (hopefully appearing here: Image) and will give you the choice between the link to paste in email or IM, or to embed it in a web page.

Also, "nebes" is either a typo for nubes or for nubs.

The e is surely accidentally taken from nebula above. Probably nubes, as it differs only by one letter.

Since this word perindie is so obscure. Should I replace it with a better word, like pridie. After all, the text is primarily for pedagogical purposes.
