#I voted restinctor. im intrigued by the fact that one epitaph says a guy was a restinctor

hey ancient languages fans remember last year when we all voted on the thesaurus linguae latinae word of the year and my post about it got more notes than the actual poll got votes and the winner was rescellula ‘little little thing, esp. shabby article of clothing’?

they’re doing it again for 2023 and y’all should vote.

#tagamemnon #lingua latina #tll #i just want to share the joy of obscure words #I voted restinctor. im intrigued by the fact that one epitaph says a guy was a restinctor #and we don’t know if that meant he was a firefighter or a lamplighter or what
