threaded is right of course - domus. People called Romanes they go the house.

I bought the DVD last week. Had its moments but wasn't as funny as I thought. Which reminded me that when I first saw it, it wasn't as funny as I expected.

I go there most Saturdays so if you see a buff, young and impossibly handsome IT contractor there it's probably not me.

Erm, it was Domus in LoB. Domus catches many out being one of those freak nouns having a locative, yet feminine, but looks like a 2nd declension masculine, except that it sometimes acts like it might have also had a nasty accident with a fourth declension.

HTH

It should be Romani ite domum.

No, it isn't.

It should be "Is that better, sir?". I am not a knight of the realm and it's vocative, boy, vocative.
