noch, 1) von der Zeit: adhuc (usque) ad id tempus. ad id. ad id locorum (bis auf diesen Zeitpunkt, bis jetzt, und zwar adh. in bezug auf die wirkliche Gegenwart = »bis auf [1801] den heutigen Tag, bis auf diesen Augenblick«; die übrigen in bezug auf die vergangene Zeit, in die sich der Redner zurückdenkt = »bis auf die Zeit, bis zu der Zeit«). – etiam (»noch immer«, »noch«, wo es die Fortdauer eines stattfindenden Ereignisses bezeichnet, z.B. du schweigst auch noch? etiam taces?: da er noch schlief, cum iste etiam cubaret). – auch durch ipse (z.B. noch auf der Reise, in ipso itinere: noch vom Schlachtfelde aus einen Boten schicken, ex ipsa acie nuntium mittere). – Zuw. durch Wiederholung des im Imperfektum vorhergehenden Verbums im Präsens angedeutet, z.B. du hattest Freude an der Arbeit und hast sie noch, laetabaris labore, laetaris: du gingst zu Fuße u. gehst noch, incedebas pedibus, incedis. – zuw. gar nicht ausgedrückt, z.B. die noch stehenden Mauern, stantia moenia: noch voll Bewunderung, vehementer admirans.
noch einmal, s. nochmals. – noch immer, etiam nunc (auch jetzt noch); etiam tum od. tunc (auch da od. auch dann noch, mit Hinweisung auf ein im Nebensatz angegebenes Faktum; beide, stehen als verstärktes etiam, sind also auch häufig für »noch« allein, wenn es = »noch immer«, zu gebrauchen, z.B. während ernoch sprach, dicens etiam tum); usque (noch immer, noch fortwährend, zur Angabe der ununterbrochenen Fortdauer): noch... immer (wo »immer« zum Verbum gehört), adhuc semper (in Beziehungen wie: noch [d. i. bis jetzt] habe ich immer geschwiegen, adhuc semper tacui). – noch lange, diu. – noch nicht, nondum. hauddum (zur Bezeichnung des gleichzeitigen Nichterfolgens einer erwarteten Sache mit dem Eintreffen einer andern, z.B. wenn du noch nicht von Rom abgereist bist, so schreibe mir, was jener treibt, ille quid agat, si nondum Romā es profectus, scribas ad me velim); non... etiam (hebt das Verbum des Satzes mehr hervor = »immer noch nicht«, z.B. du kennst mich noch nicht genau, non satis me pernosti etiam, qualis sim); adhuc non (»bis auf diesen Augenblick nicht, bis auf den heutigen Tag nicht«, hebt die Gegenwart mit einer gewissen Schärfe hervor; ist von der Vergangenheit die Rede, so muß es auch hier heißen: ad id tempus non, ad id non, s. oben, z.B. sie sind noch nicht gekommen, adhuc non venerunt). – noch nicht... aber doch, nondum... sed: und noch nicht, necdum od. nequedum; neque adhuc: noch nichts, nihildum; nihil adhuc: noch kein, nullus dum, nullus etiam nunc (alle diese mit demselben Untersch. wie nondum, non etiam u. adhuc non, s. vorher). – noch keiner, nullusdum. – kaum noch, vixdum. – wie lange noch, quousque etiam; quam diu etiam.
II) zur Hinzufügung, Vermehrung u. Steigerung: etiam (dient zur Anknüpfung eines Begriffs, der außer etwas Gesagtem ebenfalls Geltung hat, »ebenfalls, auch noch«, z.B. noch andere, etiam alii: noch obendrein, obendrein noch, etiam insuper: insuper etiam; auch bl. insuper: eins bitte ich euch noch, daß etc., unum etiam vos oro, ut etc. – u. zur Anknüpfung eines gewichtigern Begriffs »auch sogar noch, auch selbst noch«, bes. nach negativen Sätzen, z.B. die sogar noch beim Jammern sehr liebliche [1802] Stimme, vox quasi etiam in gemitu praedulcis. – u. endlich, wie unser »noch«. zur Steigerung bei Komparativen, z.B. noch genauer, accuratius etiam: noch weit genauer, multo etiam accuratius: sage es, sage es noch deutlicher, die, dic etiam clarius. – Mit weniger Nachdruck steht häufig der bloße Komparativ ohne etiam, z.B. es ist nicht ehrenvoll, von einem, der gleich ist, besiegt zu werden, aber noch weniger ehrenvoll ist es, von einem Geringern, indignum est a pare vinci, indignius ab inferiore). – amp lius (noch weiter. noch ferner, z.B. was willst du noch [weiter], quid vis amplius: er gab dem Menschen noch dieses, hoc homini dedit amplius). – plus (noch mehr der Summe nach, mit folg. Genet, bei Substantiven, z.B. er verlangt noch [mehr] Geld, plus pecuniae poscit). – noch mehr, etiam amplius od. bl. amplius (noch ferner, noch weiter, s. vorh.); plus etiam od. bl. plus (auch noch mehr dem Wert nach, z.B. so viel u. noch mehr ist er mir schuldig, tantum et plus etiam mihi debet; über plus mit Genet. bei Substst. s. vorher): (ja) noch mehr! (beim Fortschreiten der Rede), quid vero? verum etiam: und, was noch mehr ist, et, quod plus est; et, quod magis est: ja, was noch mehr ist, s. »ja no. III«. – noch dazu, supra (obendrein, als Zugabe, z.B. noch dazugeben, -fügen, supra addere: oder häufig bl. addere); praeterea (überdies, obendrein, um zu dem bereits Genannten noch etw. hinzuzufügen, bes. bei Aufzählung mehrerer Dinge u. Umstände). – noch dazu da, wenn etc., praesertim cum. praesertim si (d. i. zumal da, wenn, zur Einleitung eines besondern Grundes od. einer auszeichnenden Bedingung). – und noch dazu, s. dazu no. II. – noch so, quantumvis (»so sehr man will, noch so sehr«, bei Verben und Adjektiven, z.B. noch so groß, quantumvis magnus); od. (bei einigen Pronominaladjektiven) durch das angehängte... cumque (= »wie auch immer«, z.B. noch so groß, quantuscumque: noch so klein, quantuluscumque).

[z.B. mehr Geld, plus pecuniae], oder adv., steht ebenf. vergleichend u. geht immer auf die Quantität, bezeichnet alsoeine größere Anzahl, Masse etc. und im bildl. Sinne etwas vongrößerem Umfang, Wert etc.; selten u. nur in einzelnen Verbindungen steht plus wie magis in Beziehungen wie plus amare, diligere; häufig wie amplius, um das Überschreiten einer Zahl anzudeuten). – amplius (bezeichnet zunächst als Neutrum des Adjektivs sowohl einen größern Umfang, Wert etc., z.B. ich bin Ädil, das ist mehr als ein Privatmann, ego sum aedilis, hoc est amplius quam privatus; als ohne Vergleichung einen Zuwachs, eine Zugabe, unser »mehr«, wenn es = obendrein, weiter, z.B. was wollt ihr mehr, quid vultis amplius. Als Adverb wird amplius bes. angewandt, um das Überschreiten sowohl einer Zeitdauer [ = länger] als das einer Menge, Anzahl anzudeuten, z.B. mehr als sechs Stunden, amplius sex horis: mehr als 100 Mann, amplius centum). – magis (adv., bezieht sich auf die Qualität der verglichenen Gegenstände und deutet an, daß eine Eigenschaft, ein Verhältnis oder ein sonstiges Prädikat in einem weit höhern Grade auftritt, z.B. etwas mehr übel nehmen [als ein anderer], alqd in contumeliam accipere magis). – potius (adv. unser »vielmehr, eher, lieber«, sagt aus, daß zwischen zwei Objekten, Handlungen, Meinungen etc. gewählt wird oder gewählt werden soll, z.B. hätte er lieber mehr in Utika als in Rom sich aufhalten wollen? an ille Uticae potius quam Romae esse maluisset?) – ultra (als Adv. (darüber hinaus, z.B. quid ultra fieri potuit?: u. nullum ultra periculum vererentur). – ultra als Präpos. mit Akk. (um das Überschreiten eines Maßes, Verhältnisses etc. zu bezeichnen, z.B. mehr als ein halb Nösel. ultra heminam: mehr als ein Weib, z.B. weichlich etc., ultra feminam). – Folgt im Deutschen »als« nach »mehr«, so wird dieses »als« im Latein. nach plus u. amplius durch quam od. durch den Ablat. ausgedrückt; bei Zahlenangaben fällt jedoch quam gew. aus, ohne daß [1658] die Zahl in den Ablat. tritt, s. »als no. II, 1«; nach plures, magis und potius steht immer quam (z.B. nicht mehr als. neun, non plus od. non plures quam novem: mehr durch schlau berechnete List als durch Tapferkeit siegen, magis ratione et consilio quam virtute vincere): eigentlich (in der Tat) mehr... als etc., verius... quam (z.B. tumultus fuit verius quam bellum): mehr als einmal, s. einmal: nicht mehr als dreimal, ter nec amplius. – In adjekt. u. adverb.

G. 6, 35, 9; b. c. 3, 2, 2). – nicht mehr sein (= gestorben sein), esse desisse (aufgehört haben zu sein). – mehr geben, plus dare (mehr als ein anderer); amplius dare (ferner geben, nachdem man vorher schon einmal oder mehrere Male gegeben hat); supra addere od. bl. addere (noch obendrein als Zugabe geben). – mehr bieten, pluris liceri (mehr als ein anderer): so und so viel mehr bieten, supra adicere m. Akk. der Summe (noch zum frühern Gebot hinzusetzen): immer mehr bieten als jmd., alqo licente contra liceri. – mehr sein, plus esse (der Menge, dem Werte nach, v. Dingen); amplius esse (dem Umfange, Werte, der Würde nach, von Dingen u. Pers.); potentiorem esse. plus posse (der Macht nach); altiorem dignitatis gradum tenere (der Würde nach; diese von Pers.): und was mehr ist (bei Steigerungen), et, quod plus est; et, quod maius est; auch atque adeo (und sogar); quin etiam (ja auch noch); od. durch quid?; ja, was noch mehr ist, immo. immo enim vero (s. ja no.

id. Agr. 2, 33, 90:multis suppliciis justis,
id. Cat. 1, 8, 20:multa majores nostri magna et gravia bella gesserunt,
id. Imp. Pomp. 2, 6:plurima signa pulcherrima,
id. Verr. 2, 1, 23, § 61.—When both adjectives follow the substantive, et is sometimes inserted:virtutes animi multae et magnae,
Cic. Imp. Pomp. 22, 64:causas ille multas et graves habuit,
