No, indeed! You c�n find the odd dictionary of
Silver Age, Vulgar or Ecclesiastical Latin. I
have one of the latter, published by Oxford.

Course, you have to be poking around in the right
sort of bookstore. You know, the sort of shop on
a side street you didn't know was there and if
you leave the book on the shelf and come back
next week, there will probably be a Guatamalteco
take away - leaving you to wonder whether that
Vulgar Latin dictionary was but a wyrd dream...

Padraic.
