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.

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,

nĕ-que or nec (used indifferently before vowels and consonants. The notion that nec in class. prose stands only before consonants is wholly unfounded. Ap. Cic. in the Rep. alone we find nec nineteen times before vowels; viz.: nec accipere, 3, 13, 23: nec alios, 2, 37, 62: nec enim, 1, 24, 38; 6, 25, 27: nec esset, 5, 5, 7: nec ex se, 6, 24, 27:

Cf. also such passages as neque reliquarum virtutum, nec ipsius rei publicae,

Cic. Rep. 1, 26, 41:

dabo tibi testes nec nimis antiquos nec ullo modo barbaros,

id. ib. 1, 37, 58:

nec atrocius... neque apertius,

id. Tull. 1, 2:

nec homo occidi nec consulto, etc.,

id. ib. 14, 34. The true distinction is, that in the form nec the negation is more prominent; in the form neque, the connective force of the particle; cf. Hand, Turs. 4, p. 94 sq.), adv. and conj. [ne-que], not; and not, also not.

Adv., like ne, in ante-class. Latinity (v. ne, I.) as a general negative particle, = non, not (usually in the form nec. In class. Lat. this usage seems to be confined to certain formulae, as nec opinans, nec procul abesse, nec mancipi, etc.; v. infra): nec conjunctionem grammatici fere dicunt esse disjunctivam, ut: nec legit, nec scribit: cum si diligentius inspiciatur, ut fecit Sinnius Capito, intellegi possit, eam positam esse ab antiquis pro non, ut et in XII. est: AST EI CVSTOS NEC ESCIT, Paul. ex Fest. p. 162 Müll.:

alter, qui nec procul aberat,

Liv. 1, 25, 10:

nec ullus = nullus: cui Parcae tribuere nec ullo vulnere laedi,

Verg. Cir. 269:

differentia mancipi rerum et nec mancipi,

Gai. Inst. 2, 18 sq. —Form neque: si quid tibi in illisce suovitaurilibus lactentibus neque satisfactum est, etc., an old formula of prayer in Cato, R. R. 141, 4: neque opinantes insidiatores, Auct. B. Afr. 66; Auct. B. Alex. 75.

Conj., in all periods and kinds of composition.

In gen., = et non, and not, also not.

Alone.

When the negative applies to the principal verb of the clause: multumque laborat, Nec respirandi fit copia, Enn. ap. Macr. S. 6, 3 (Ann. v. 437 Vahl.):

id. Rep. 1, 41, 64:

Ov. H. 2, 79.—

Less freq. when the negative applies to some other word:

nec inventas illas toto orbe pares vires gloriatur,

Just. 11, 9, 5:

et vidi et perii, nec notis ignibus arsi,

Ov. H. 12, 33:

Anguibus exuitur tenui cum pelle vetustas, Nec faciunt cervos cornua jacta senes ( = et faciunt non senes),

id. Rep. 2, 38, 64:

In partic.

Nec [p. 1202] = ne... quidem, not even (in Liv. and later writers;

nec ipse,

Suet. Claud. 46; Flor. 1, 15, 3; Lact. 5, 13, 12; Amm. 14, 10, 3.—

Nec = etiam non (freq. in Quint.):

ut, si in urbe fines non reguntur, nec aqua in urbe arceatur,

Cic. Top. 4, 23; id. Fin. 1, 11, 39:

nec si quid dicere satis non est, ideo nec necesse est,

Quint. 1, 1, 21:

nec deus hunc mensā, dea nec dignata cubili est,

Verg. E. 4, 63; id. A. 4, 365; 696:

sed nec Brutus erit, Bruti nec avunculus usquam,

Juv. 14, 43.—With a preceding negative, which, however, does not destroy the negation contained in neque... neque:
