  • 11 Honos

    hŏnor or hŏnos (the latter form almost exclusively in Cic., who has honor only Phil. 9, 6 fin., and Fragm. pro Tull. 21; also in Caes., Liv., Sall., Prop., Verg., Nep., and Curt.; but honor in Sen., Vell., Ov.; and Hor. and Tac. use both forms. Honos was antiquated in Quintilian's day, v. Quint. 1, 4, 13; Neue, Formenl. 1, 168 sq.), ōris (archaic gen. honorus, like venerus, Lex Puteol. ap. Haubold, n. 7), m. [perh.

    In gen.:

    cum honos sit praemium virtutis judicio studioque civium delatum ad aliquem, qui eum sententiis, qui suffragiis adeptus est, is mihi et honestus et honoratus videtur. Qui autem occasione aliqua etiam invitis suis civibus nactus est imperium, hunc nomen honoris adeptum, non honorem puto,

    Cic. Brut. 81, 281; cf.:
