Gokul Venkatachalam, who usually spelled and quizzed pronouncer Jacques Bailly in a deadpan monotone, had a quick one-liner when he got the word “guttatim,” which means drop by drop.

Further, the principal notion in gutta is that of smallness, hence guttatim means drop by drop; whereas in stilla the principal notion is that of humidity, hence stillatim means trickling or dripping.

The wound healed up; but by degrees, the passage contracted, so that in May, 1819, the patient could pass his urine only guttatim, with pain and difficulty, and was threatened with inflammation, &c. of the perineum.

Pluvia, 4. et Imber, stillat e Nube, guttatim.

Sic tractatos, pice oleoue feruenti guttatim perfundebant; salita post aqua corpus abluebant, et in mensa tamdiu relinquebant, quamdiu dolorem ferre posse putarentur.
