The following are a few words which comes directly or indirectly from Latin. 1. Subpoenia is derived from sub, meaning under, and poena, meaning penalty, and is the name of a docu ment issued by a court commanding a person to report “under penalty.” 2. Equal is derived from aequus, meaning level, equal or fair, and means literally on the same level, or even with. 8. Monere, a latin word meaning to warn or advise appears in ad- i mouish: to advise, admonition, advice j and moniter literally one who advises. 4. Insolent is derived from in-not, ! ami satire, meaning to be accustomed. Thus insolent means originally “not in accordance with custom, unusual ' and “to act insolently” meant to be have in a manner contrary to estab- j lished custom. 5. Dicere, to speak, say, has some important derivatioves. To predict is to say something before hand, to for tell. To contradict is to speak against. A dictator is a person whose say-so settles things. 6. Jacere, to throw, cast, has nu merous discendants. To eject a per son is to throw him out. To reject an offer is to throw it back.
