When looking up cupiditas and cupido they seem to have the same meaning. I am wondering if they are truly equivalent or whether there is a subtle distinction between them. Thanks!
Non est discrimen quod dignosco in dictionariis de OLD, L&S, Gaffiot separatim usus Cupidinis pro deo cupiditatis.
I don’t see any difference in the L&S, in OLD, or Gaffiot dictionaries, apart from Cupido being used also for the God, or personification, of the concept.
