    1. I. Distinct (gram. t. t.):
      1. 1. distinctus: the tongue renders the sounds of the voice a. and defined, lingua sonos vocis distinctos et pressos efficit, Cic. N. D. 2, 59, 149.
      2. 2. dīlūcĭdus: a. pronunciation, d. pronuntiatio, Quint. 11, 3, 33.
      3. 3. explānātus (rare): in the tongue (lies the power of) a. utterance of words, in lingua explanatam vocum expressionem, Cic.
      4. 4. explānābĭlis (?): they (i.e. beasts) have a kind of speech, but that not a., vox est quidem, sed non ex., et perturbata, et verborum inefficax, Sen. Ir. 1, 3, 5. (Perhaps the two latter expressions more precisely represent the English word).
