Before she became a forum member, tiggerbelle asked in an email about this word:
In today's challenge (sunday 24 Jan) I noticed that the word latin was not allowed ... an oversight IMHO, given it can refer to a style of music, as much as to the language. What gives there?
Sorry it's taken me a while to get on to this one, tiggerbelle. The rule we use is that words written with a capital letter are not allowed. This seems to be the case with
Latin. It is almost always written with a capital
L, even in phrases like
Latin music, or
Latin jazz.
