is te deum related to tedium?=0D -----Original Message----- From: austechwriter-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:austechwriter-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Silcock, Howard DR Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 12:42 PM To: Austechwriter (austechwriter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) Subject: atw: SEC: UNCLASS RE: Corrigendum and peccavi I'm not going to be able to stay in my hole. I've now consulted a number of other dictionaries and it seems that "peccavi" *is* recognised as a noun, meaning "a confession of sin", whatever its original Latin meaning may have been (my mentioning it could have alerted you to the possibility that I knew about the original meaning).=0D Presumably the name was applied to that type of confession because "peccavi" would have been its first word. I suppose it's a bit like when people talk about a "Te Deum" or a "Magnificat". Hmm, this is a great way to deflect attention from my original error! I'm learning from the politicians...
