Did both nouns belong to the same declension?

(Though both words are nouns now, one was a different part of speech in Latin)

Was one a form of a verb?

An adjective, then?

Is this too difficult? Should I give a hint?

No, I don't think I'd say it's too difficult. I've personally been "holding back" from guessing in hopes that someone else will jump in, because if I'm the only one guessing, then eventually I'll get it right, making it my turn, but I don't have a Romlang.

Was cot the adjective?

I’ll join in sometime tomorrow

You know, there’s a solution to that...

OK, that’s good to know.

does cot descend from cautum?

Does the adjective agree with the noun in number and gender?

(Remember, it was an adjective originally, but it's now used as a noun)

I do remember. I guess I should have worded my question differently.

When hian was an adjective, did it agree with cot? Or did this phrase only come into use after it stopped being an adjective?

Neither do I. Whenever it's my turn I just make up a word that could be from a romlang.

shimobaatar wrote: ↑12 Oct 2018 21:39Or did this phrase only come into use after it stopped being an adjective?

(or at least, it was used as a noun when this phrase came into used)
