	Dammit I missed caput. Wish there were some 4th or 5th declension words though.

	Why is dies listed twice?

	I like this quiz a lot, but you definitely need to remove one "dies." Also, I think some authors use "consili" as the genitive of "consilium," so you should probably accept that as well.

	dies is probably listed twice because it can be either masculine or feminine, but yes, i think the extra one should go. Nice quiz though!

	Liber doesn't mean book, it means free. I think you're looking for librum (which has the same genitive so it doesn't matter much).

	kelsh:	Aug 26th, 2011 at 11:55 GMT		2 points
	Liber does in fact mean book. You are correct that with a long i, it is an adjective meaning free. With a short i, it is a noun meaning book. Librum is the accusative singular.

	I think some plurals may make this quiz more interesting. As it is, it's pretty repetitive.

	Super cool! Had to think for a second on a few of them. :)

	I'm pretty sure "Timor" is fear and not health.

	Thanks- I'll fix it.

	I was stumped for mos, then I thought of Cicero. Never been so grateful to a dead man.

	This is an awesome quiz. It's great if you want to see how much latin you still know after a while away from it :) Kudos to you, kelsh
