Talk:novus

I thought a dictionary was supposed to supply definitions. what is the definition of this Latin word? Also, is it just Latin, or is it English, too? Under "adjective," there is " new quotations ▼

   fresh, young
   recent
   unusual, extraordinary"  -  Are those the definitions?  If so, this is a user-unfriendly way of laying things out. 5.34.82.192 03:36, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

I'm not sure how familiar you are with looking up words in a dictionary, but I assure you this is pretty much how all dictionaries work. The Latin word novus means (first sense being the most common) 1) new; 2) fresh, young; 3) recent; 4) unusual, extraordinary. It's an adjective and not an English word (N.B. and yet some English brand names might use it). If you click "quotations ▼" you'll find usage examples from famous literary works. --Robbie SWE (talk) 08:02, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
