It may be remarked in concluding that, while the advances of philology have intro- 
duced reforms into the pronunciation and phonetic spelling of Latin words during re- 
cent times, these reforms cannot be allowed to affect words which, having obtained an 
entrance into nomenclature, have assumed, so to speak, an arbitrary character and 
signification. Otherwise new and annoying elements of confusion would be added, 
where there are already too many. The Latin of scientific nomenclature is, and must 
remain essentially the Latin of the eighteenth century.
