[Taxacom] Tegula, tegulae, tegulum, etc.

[Roger Burks]

Here is a good online reference for issues such as these:

http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=tegula&la=la#lexicon

Clicking a link referring to Lewis will bring up a lexicon entry.
Clicking a word frequency link will bring up citations of where the
word was used in classical texts. The lexicon entry will give the
gender and nominative plural suffix (for the displayed entry: tēgula
ae, f).
