Constructing epithets
Monte Baldo does not really sound as if it has its roots in Latin?
Not enough roots of any kind, I think. Iris, Central NY, Zone 5a, Sunset Zone 40 "If we see light at the end of the tunnel, It's the light of the oncoming train." Robert Lowell (1917-1977) |

Iris Cohen schreef Not enough roots of any kind, I think. Iris, + + + Mountains are sometimes regarded as having roots, but to dwell on that would mean going into a field between geology on the one hand and literature on the other. I think the tension between botany on the one hand and Latin on the other is quite enough, without adding further complications? PvR |
