This is the last slide show of Latin Words. Next week will be a slide show of famous Latin Phrases. Again...I am always looking for suggestions to make the slides better.

An overview of
your life's
accomplishments,
most specifically
those that are
relevant to the
academic realm.
3. VS.
A CV is a longer
(at least two pages) more
detailed synopsis used
primarily when applying for
academic, education, scientific
or research positions. It is also
applicable when applying for
fellowships or grants.
A resume is brief
and concise - no
more than a page
or two.
4. 2. E pluribus unum
one out of many

the United States and on
several United States
coins.

6. 4. Tabula rasa
Clean slate
When you were a child,
your mind might have
been more of a tabula rasa
than it is today. This phrase
is used to indicate that
something or someone not
affected by experiences
and impressions.
(Tab-you-la raw-za)
7. 5. Sub rosa
(row-za)
Literally means
“under the rose”
In secret
The Romans also painted roses on the
roofs of their banquet halls, as a
reminder to guests that they should
remain silent about the events of
banquets, and that comments said “sub
vino,” under the influence of wine,
should not be repeated.
