missnomer

From an article in the Telegraph UK:

"The Vatican has helpfully produced a new lexicon of modern words in Latin, providing translations for such non-classical terms as playboy, hot pants, nightclub and Merlot."
...and further down in the article:

"The Latinitas Foundation is an academic institution founded in 1976 by Pope Paul VI with the intention of preserving and evolving the Latin language. It publishes a quarterly review in Latin and a Latin dictionary that runs to 780 pages."
The article mentions a few examples of these new words, including "punkianae catervae assecla" -- which is "punk" in the new Latin.

Almost begs the question: how many punkianae catervae assecla can dance on the edge of a razor blade anyway?

I can run really, really fast.
