JohnFitzgerald Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Some pics of the time when I had these lovelys. Anyone think they might have one of them now ? They were repsectively, an S1 bolted on headed, a series 3000 bolt on headless with side LEDs and a Groove 5 string in sunburst. Pics hopefully attached. Anyone spotted them around ? I have long since domesticated their value for such fripperies as annual holidays, car repairs and the like. Here we go.

Mrbigstuff Posted October 16 Posted October 16 These days you can probably put the pics in AI and it will be able to scour the internet and find potential matches Quote
Joe Nation Posted October 16 Posted October 16 The plural of Status is Statuses. A group of Statuses is called a reputation. 4 Quote

Hellzero Posted October 16 Posted October 16 Funnily, in Latin, the plural form of status is still ... status, in the nominative form and it can never become statii, which doesn't exist. But what do they know, indeed. 🤔🤪 Quote

Hellzero Posted October 16 Posted October 16 In fact, it would be better and more accurate so, as Colchester must be declined in the genitive and factum rejected at the end: Status : Camuloduni factum. Latin and Greek classical studies leave deep scars... Quote

So Servus (which means slave) becomes Servi But Status is actually a name, so maybe it's different Quote
Hellzero Posted October 16 Posted October 16 And even if you were using the word status instead of the name, it belongs to the fourth declension, so nominative plural is still status and statii still doesn't exist in this declension. 😉 Quote

(btw I'm really interested in this stuff) I quite enjoyed latin at shool, our teacher taught us a lot of proper English grammar Quote
