Richard,
Thanks indeed for this.  I have several Latin dictionaries and others that are Latin/Greek
roots, so it is always nice to see something like this.
However, I do admit that it is ever so much nicer to hold a book.
Robin

Those who need to translate Latin descriptions and discussions from the older literature should know that P. Eckel's Grammatical Dictionary of Botanical Latin has passed 7100 entries. Each entry gives information on appropriate inflection, definition, and usage, plus examples from the Latin literature with their English translations.
