A page that would be useful for people looking at the /Phrases or Latin sayings found on wikipedia. I'll get the ball rolling. Better table formats would be welcome, plus links to declension and conjugation. :)

I'm uncertain as to the real utility of this. If we want someone to use a real lexicon, there are such things on line. I don't want to have every word in the Latin Phrases list construed here! And do people who don't know Latin know what the abbreviated forms -um and -a are (and they're not in the order American English speakers use) or what -ere, -i mean? That's enough of a problem for first year Latin students using a real dictionary. --MichaelTinkler, former high school Latin teacher
