ALTERCATION Copy link
• ALTERCATION
altercatio (a contest of words with more or less of heat): jurgium (an angry quarrel conducted with abusive words, when neither party will listen to reason). To have an altercation with anybody, altercari cum aliquo; verbis cum aliquo concertare; jurgio certare cum aliquo: to begin an altercation, altercari incipere (cum aliquo); causam jurgii inferre. I get into an altercation with anybody, oritur mihi (de aliqua re) altercatio cum aliquo. A great part of the day was taken up by an altercation between Lentulus and Caninius, dies magna ex parte consumtus altercafione Lentuli et Caninii. Altercations took place in the senate, altercationes in senatu factae (Cic.). No altercation ever took place with greater clamors, nulla altercatio clamoribus habita majoribus (Cic.).
