Respect[edit]
This post on a related Wikipedia talk explores a potential meaning of this term not represented here on wiktionary. It mentions respect being mentioned by Oxford's Latin Desk Dictionary, and I am wondering if that would qualify as a valid source for expanding the definition.
I am not sure which sense of respect since it has multiple meanings. I would assume either to mean admiration of an authority or obedience toward an authority. Etym (talk) 20:31, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
Verecunnia[edit]
According to https://www.littre.org/definition/vergogne, the "vulgar" form can be found in Pompeian graffiti. Kwékwlos (talk) 13:46, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
