Which spelling do you prefer? |
Coyotepunc and Hatshepsuut | 21 Jan 2017 9:23 p.m. PST |
SAGA. Or Lion Rampant. Or DBA. But that wasn't really the question. |

IMO, the "v" is just for flavor. |

The proper one, with the u. |

Depends whether you are civilised or a barbarian… |

The only reason for the "V" is because it's easier to carve in marble than a "U". |

I suppose you could have one set of boards for each option to keep everyone happy :) |

Which on is on the cover of the rules? |

This is the sort of discussion caused by ignorant doofuses (NOT doofi) who think the plural of Elvis is Elvi. Impetus Impeti Impeto Impetum Impeto And the plural Impeti Impetorum Impetis Impetos Impetis Which is why it is silly for English speakers to make the plurals of Latin words ending in -um they have stolen end in -a. |

As John alluded, "Impetvs" is a misspelling. It should be "IMPETVS." Rick |

Oops. My bad. It's 4th Declension. Not 2nd. Singular impetus impetūs impetuī impetum impetū impetus Plural impetūs impetuum impetibus impetūs impetibus impetūs |

Shouldn't it be Impeti as the plural? |
Winston Smith | 23 Jan 2017 7:34 a.m. PST |
No. See above. Directly above. And WHICH plural? Nominative? Accusative? Vocative? See, this is what happens when amateurs try to do Latin. Leave it to trained professionals. |
