Loan-Words in Latin

ISBN: 9781332774425 出版年：2016 页码：33 Edward Ross Wharton Forgotten Books

Compounds and Derivatives of Greek loan-words — and we have within our province 30 such Compounds and 140 such Derivatives — cannot properly be called hybrid words: each contains an element which, though originally Greek, had been naturalised in Latin. Some of them are formed from loan-words which must once have existed in Latin but are not found in extant Latin literature.
