Typos, Grammatical Errors and Other Issues Sticky

If you find any errors in the text, or even just something that doesn't quite make sense, please leave a comment here.

The Latin title is wrong.

"De deorum elementa" is not grammatical

"De deorum elementis" would mean "On the elements of the gods"

"On the gods of the elements" in Latin is "De deis elementorum" (or "De elementorum deis")


the -orum suffix corresponds to the plural genitive case and "de" requires the ablative case (-is suffix, for these plural nouns).

Ah, darn. I knew this was going to happen. I spent some time looking around at different translations to see if it was at least passable, but I don't know Latin. Unfortunately, I think it's a little too late to change the name now. (Too bad since I like De Elementorum Deis.)
