Ancient Greek terms worth reviving
These are great suggestions. Adding these words to your own internal vocabulary is totally worth it for self-reflection.<p>Less seriously, a <i>grammatical</i> construction I wish we had in English is the Latin future passive participle, typically ending in -ndus, -nda, -ndum. It means that something needs/ought to be done.<p>For instance "Amanda" is "she who must be loved."<p>So if someone asks you why your feature isn't in production yet, you can say the pull request is reviewandum.<p>Or you can tell the kids that the trash is emptianda, or the dog is walkandus.<p>These are kind of lame examples, but once you get the idea you can find places where it'd be convenient several times a day.
