r
, fornict-, from fornix, fornic-, vault, vaulted cellar, brothel ] are the arches that you may find in, for instance, a vault, crypt or perhaps a church or cathedral.

Well,if you'd prefer the other ...
DeleteI'm okay with my disappointment. In fact I may be relieved.
ReplyDeleteI'm pleased to hear that you are coping!
DeleteBut why have you gone to the vault or crypt? Perhaps an assignation? A little fornific....
ReplyDeleteThat could be the subject of an entirely different kind of article!
DeleteSo brothels were conducted underground in the vaults and cellars? Wonder what that did to the taste of the water?

DeleteI like learning the true meaning of words. Now I have got to come up with it in a sentence and amaze my silly friends. Hmmm.... :)
ReplyDeleteSlip it into the next conversation you have in a church.
DeleteThat might go down well.
Nifty.
