There is nothing to admit, you have been proven wrong, it's there covered with the suffix.

Yes, I recall, the suffixes with suffixes and the pronouns that did not exist. It is all there in black and white. Sorry, you obviously do understand Latin, even better than the Romans. Bravo.

Let me inform you IL as in ille, AL and EL are one and the same.
The word EL-LUS can be seen with it's root and the suffix, the suffix describing the root word.
AL=EL, also in arabic.
Are you concerned about getting a fatwah for abusing the Arabic?

Al- (Arabic: الـ, also transliterated as ul- and in some cases IL- and EL-)
Yup, I saw that word (el) in my Ficto-Latin dictionary. It came right after the pretend pronouns.

I did, nothing about any word called 'el' in Latin. Ficto-Latin yes, real Latin, no. A for effort though, I think you almost have yourself convinced it exists. Almost.

OK, dude, you keep telling yourself that.
All the previous scholars in myriad subjects discussed here were wrong, and you are right.
Even though you can't tell the difference between Dumuzi and Enlil, don't understand evolving religions, can't grasp the idea of anthropomorphic personification, and can't speak a word of Latin.
* (Classical) IPA: /ˈ-el.lus/
Suffix
-ellus m. (feminine -ella, neuter -ellum); first/second declension
1. Alternative form of -lus.

It's not ficto latin, the word EL apears with a suffix, a suffix is formed with a root word.
Root+suffix, how can you state it does not appear ? if it's there ? The suffix is an extention to the root word.
Here you go:
* (Classical) IPA: /ˈ-el.lus/
Suffix
Suffix
-lus m. (feminine -la, neuter -lum); first/second declension

No the surffix lus, it's there, I know you got no other excuses now, so you will hang on this.
Originally posted by pepsi78
It's not ficto latin the root word el+ lus, it's there, EL is the root and the LUS is the extention.

I don't see how it's ficto latin since there is EL+LUS, it's just your opinion.

I did not see anything there that echoed your statement that 'el' equals 'him' (let alone it being a word) in Latin. Can you highlight where it said that 'el' equals 'him' in Latin or maybe you can link a dictionary entry that says what you asserted.
