As the title says, how do you say notes in Latin? Originally I thought it would be nota, notae, but the online Perseus latin dictionary doesn't give the same sense of the word that I would like. Instead, I would like a word for the kind of notes I would take in a class room, or at a lecture.
I'm a little worried that this question might be too trivial, but I think that simple word requests are acceptable. I appreciate any feedback.
I found a few options for you:
From William Whitaker's Words
From Lewis Elementary
From Morgan and Silva Furman University Lexicon
Out of the options I gave you, the entries from Lewis Elementary are probably the most idiomatic for the type of notes you mean. However, the Morgan and Silva option is far more accurate in meaning (this dictionary attempts to find Latin words for modern concepts, so its entries are not idiomatic classically). I hope this helps!
