GROUP SPEECH
IN THE JESUIT SEMINARY OF SEVERAL YEARS AGO, MANY LATIN WORDS OR
ENGLISH WORDS WITH STRONG LATIN INFLUENCE WERE REGULARLY USED IN
PLACE OF THEIR MORE COMMON ENGLISH EQUIVALENTS IN ENGLISH
CONVERSATON. UNDOUBTEDLY, THIS WAS DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT HAD ONLY
BEEN SEVERAL YEARS PRIOR TO THIS THAT LATIN CONVERSATTION HAD BEEN
DISCONTINUED AS A REQUIRED PRACTICE.
SOME OF THESE WORDS WERE:
REFECTORY - DINING ROOM.
REFECTORIAN - PERSON WHO TOOK CARE OF DINING ROOM.
LABORANDUM - WORK PERIOD.
TRICLINIUM - THE PLACE WHERE THE DISHES WERE WASHED.
AULA - RECREATION ROOM.
MANUDUCTOR - HEAD NOVICE.
BALNEATOR - PERSON WHO CLEANED THE SHOWERS.
