About Me

I'm a botanist (deep into ferns), a Botanical Latin enthusiast
and a long-time programmer hence the Botanical Latin program
TRANSLAT which is available below.....

Initial instructions and TRANSLAT Detailed Information

Get TRANINST.ZIP (v. 4.09) (504Kbytes) now [updated version 16 May 1999]

TRANSLAT (previous version 4.07a) is also available via anonymous ftp at www.mobot.org from the Missouri Botanic Gardens in the directory /pub/DOS/Latin (NB: FTP from Netscape & IE probably won't work for this at present). I'll try to put latest files there asap.

Some of my favourite links.........

I recommend a visit to the Internet Directory of Botany. The Latin Grammar Aid and Wordlist is a useful link for Latin, as is the Human Languages Page. Detailed explanations of (species) epithets are available at the Dictionary of Botanical Epithets site. For a bit of light relief, check out the BOGUS home page (and the links there to oddities of zoological and botanical nomenclature).

Email me if you have problems with TRANSLAT, or want to talk about ferns
