  Diana princeps femina Angliae fiebat.

If I understand this sentence correctly, it isn't true: the Queen outranked her! So I deleted it. Andrew Dalby 18:06, 15 Maii 2007 (UTC)

  I think it was an attempt to say "princess." --Iustinus 00:39, 16 Maii 2007 (UTC)
    Oh, I see. I understood it as "first lady". But if "princess" is intended, it's still misleading to call her "principissa Angliae". She was "principissa Cambriae", and, if we want to count heads, "una inter principissas Regni Britanniarum". Andrew Dalby 08:40, 16 Maii 2007 (UTC)
      In case the original writer is reading this: princeps is indeed of common gender, but its usage as a title that is essentially automatically bestowed on the child of a monarch, and occasionally to others, dates to the middle ages, so we can feel free to use the pre-existing medieval feminine form, principissa. In Classical Latin, in fact, the usual expression for a monarch's daughter is simply regia filia, I believe.
      As for the concern that more than one person could be a principissa Regni Britanniarum, we can solve that by adding a quaedam, if it's really necessary. --Iustinus 08:59, 16 Maii 2007 (UTC)
