I should have thought a medicinare has an extensive command of latin...

Oh, yes. Whatever relates to body parts.
I did take a short Latin course back in "high school," focusing entirely on the use of Latin (and Greek) in science, medicine and law. Of course, we did some ethymology, too. Reading this, I realise it was a very long time ago.

Yeah, but all the Latin I know is, "Ita, nos habemos non ullas bananas."
No, that's not quite true, there's also "Cogito ergo ..." sumthing or other. Oh, right! "Cogito ergo oblivio!"
(Okay, I do know a
little
more than that, but I would've done better on that if the Greek to Latin ratio had been higher.)

Then, there's always "Semper ubi sub ubi,"[1] and I think you were present at that discussion somewhere.
browngirl
's journal?
[1] Which I didn't know before, because it's not a pun in Swedish.

And then there's "Draco dormiens nunquam titilliandus."
Sound advice, I say.
