Unless they took Latin in a Catholic school in which case the nuns just made up their own rules and we had to do it the church way.

This thread is very entertaining. We women are all collectively alumnae who belong to an co-ed university alumni association. You can say you belong to the alumni association, or say you are an alumna of the university. Whatever works.
OP, do what is right for you and go through recruitment.

And they were really in trouble if the nuns were German, since Germans pronounce some Latin (or liturgical Greek) words as though they're German. Ach! Himmel!

Oooooh - makes me remember my third grade teacher - a Benedictine named Sister Adelgunda. About as wide as she was tall! Achtung!

Sister Adelgunda? LOL -- I would say you have to be making that up, but I don't think anyone could make that up. Something tells me that she was a rather no-nonsense sort of nun.

One could say that! She hadn't been off the boat long, it was my first year in Catholic school AND I had skipped 2nd grade. That year was a disaster and it's a wonder she didn't kill me.

We still have romance languages to keep us straight.
Singular female = feminine
Singular male = masculine
Collective female = feminine plural
Collective male = masculine plural
Collective male and female = masculine plural
