The online Latinitas Recens lexicon, compiled by "Florus", is unavailable (again). Maybe this is old news to some; I just discovered it. I thought this might be a good time to save it on to my computer, which I had not done, via the Web Archive. In order to facilitate the downloading process for myself I layed out in HTML the links to the 80 pages of the Latin-English/Italian section (the English to Latin section is totally inaccessible). I have placed the results as a message on a new blog I created to post random Latin notes like this, which I take the opportunity to announce here as well.

I wonder what happened to Florus. I think he is/was an Italian in a U.S. school. He was even a poster to the long defunct yahoo Latin list. That one was founded by a home-schooled Calvinist teenage girl living in Japan or China, Vera, or whatever the Hebrew word for truth is.

Happily, I checked the Web Archive again and found that the English- Latin part of the lexicon is available, only under a different archival date than I had tried before. The archive date in my links are all from February 6, 2007, but there are recent dates available.

Well, we could always e-mail him. Perhaps he has moved the site elsewhere. In the meantime, I'm hastening to download the archived version lest the host suddenly decide to withdraw robot permissions.

Eduardo Rodericius sal.
Eduardus, could you please help me interpret the sigla in Florus' word- list? I don't think I ever quite understood it. A typical entry in the Latin-English/Italian section looks like this:
fissio nuclearis--f, origo; lrl, E L. atomi compaginum scissio, It. fissione nucleare, An. nuclear fission
I take this to mean that the term "fissio nuclearis" is what appears in the "lrl" (the Vatican's /Lexicon recentis Latinitatis/, perhaps?), although the semicolon after "origo" ('source'?) leads me to think "lrl" goes with "E L.". "E L.", for his part, has "atomi compaginum scissio". But who or what is "E L."? I get the rest.

After I posted my message, I checked the Vatican LRL and found this s.v. fissione nucleare: fissio nuclearis, f. *Syn*: atomi compaginum scissio. So it looks like "lrl" does in fact stand for the Vatican lexicon.
I was wondering, too, whether "E L." might actually be two separate sigla: "E" meaning 'Egger' and "L." just 'Latine' (like the "It." stands for 'Italice" and "An." for 'Anglice').

lrl is certainly the Vatican dictionary. I'm not sure about E.L. but David Morgan in his dictionary sources uses EL to mean European Languages but then here it should come after the Latin definition, nonne?

Ita vero. I think the "E" (unpunctuated just like that) before the alternative Latin terms and Italian/English translations points to a source, just like "Draco" in the same position in the computer terminology (e.g., inducere, integer, index plicarum) points to Conradus. Cf. also the "insecticidum" entry which mentions "Helfer" in the same position.
Alas, it seems about ten pages of the Latin-English/Italian part are irrecoverable, namely 5, 8, 9, 22, 49, 54, 56, 58, 67, and 77. None will show up, and I have tried nearly all the archive dates. The rest have been found.

You'll need to find a way of preserving these pages, as they won't stay in the cache for long.
It might (or might not) be worthwhile to combine all the English-to-Latin webpages into a single giant page, and likewise all the Latin-to-English pages.

I'd love to, with Florus' permission. All I can do for now is point to them.
