### E Vicipaedia

"Canis Latrans" and Coyote in english or french are name of the north américan canidae. So I wonder if we should maintain the links with canis latrans and "coyote" in other language wiki. Astirmays 09:06, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

  I'm not sure I understand what you are suggesting. --67.36.186.168 09:39, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

I mean that if that word "coiotes" does exist in latin, it must mean an old word canids Astirmays 10:43, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

  Um, no. 'coiotes' is specifically this animal. Not all Latin words are Roman words. The root of 'coyote'/'coiotes' is a Nahuatl word. —Myces Tiberinus 11:19, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

  I havn't been on vicipaedia for a long time, I thought latin wasn't a living language anymore... Astirmays 16:38, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

    Even if latin weren't still a living language, which it certainly is, the first latin speakers interacted with Nahuatlan cultures hundreds of years before vici was a mere cogitatio.--Ioshus Rocchio 17:43, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

      I Guess they were on ocean between them, that they didn't use to cross, did they ? Astirmays 20:36, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

        I'm not sure what you mean by that sentence, but the point is, that by the time the ocean was crossed, latin was still spoken widely by europeans. This was especially true for subjects such as biology, geography, science etc.--Ioshus Rocchio 21:10, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

        You may be right, but these one can't be called "first latin speakers" Astirmays 21:22, 2 Aprilis 2006 (UTC)

## [recensere] Cagottis

From The Penny Cyclopaedia of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, 1843:

  “The Coyotl or Vulpes Indica of Hernandez (‘Hist. Quadr. Novae Hisp.,’ c. xiii.) appears to be the Caygotte of the Mexican Spaniards, and is, ‘most probably,’ the Lyciscus cagottis of Smith.” [1]

I think that's as close as it's getting. 'Cagottis' googles quite well (and in books). —Mucius Tever 23:36, 27 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)
