in inscrr. also written HVIVSQVE DIEI,

Inscr. Orell. 5; cf.:

Cic. de Or. 1, 50, 218.—

Opp. to ille, iste, less freq. to hic, alter, alius, etc., this, the latter, to indicate the nearer object (which is to be determined not so much by the phraseology as by the thought; so that hic may refer to that noun whose position in the sentence is the more remote, but which is the most closely connected with the speaker, and of the most importance to him, in which case it is to be rendered by that, the former, etc.):

ejusdem esse, qui in illa re peccarit, hoc quoque admisisse,

Cic. Inv. 2, 16, 50:

in his undis et tempestatibus ad summam senectutem maluit jactari, quam in illa tranquillitate atque otio jucundissime vivere,

occupat hic collem, cymba sedet alter adunca,

Ov. M. 1, 293.—

Referring to that which in the speaker's mind is the nearer object, although by the position of the words it is the more remote: quam ob rem cave Catoni anteponas ne istum quidem ipsum, quem Apollo sapientissimum judicavit (i. e. Socratem): Hujus enim (i. e. Catonis, of the former) facta, illius (i. e. Socratis) dicta laudantur, Cic. Lael. 2, 10; id. Rosc. Com. 2, 7:

hanc posteriorem (artem) et Stoici et Peripatetici, priorem autem illi (i. e. Peripatetici) egregie tradiderunt, hi (i. e. Stoici) ne attigerunt quidem,

id. Fin. 4, 4, 10:

hoc Cicero atque Asinius certatim sunt usi: pro Scauro hic, ille pro filio,

Quint. 6, 1, 21; 3, 10, 1:

Pregn. (qs. pointing to something with the finger), this, this... here (ante-class. and poet.); most freq. of the speaker himself, like the Gr. hode, for ego:

hic homost omnium hominum praecipuos,

Plaut. Trin. 5, 1, 1:

hic si quid nobis forte adversi evenerit, tibi erunt parata verba, huic homini verbera,

Ter. Heaut. 2, 3, 115; so,

huic homini, i. q. mihi,

Plaut. Ep. 1, 2, 38:

id. Curc. 2, 1, 33:

hunc hominem, i. q. me,

my neck, id. Pers. 4, 6, 9 Brix (Ritschl, huc): ni haec praesensisset canes, this dog, = ego, id. Trin. 1, 2, 135 Brix ad loc.—In neutr. absol.: tu quod te posterius purges hanc injuriam mihi nolle Factam esse, hujus non faciam, not so much, i. e. not the least, Ter. Ad. 2, 1, 9.—

With reference to time, of this time, now present, actual, this:

cena hac annona est sine sacris hereditas,

in the present scarcity, Plaut. Trin. 2, 4, 83:

sed nondum haec, quae nunc tenet saeculum, neglegentia deum venerat,
