【按】余翻阅西文法律报刊书籍之时，凡有不知者、可疑者，则笔而记之。为日既久，得百数词。遂求诸中西著述，抉其可否，溯厥源流，加以疏证而明通之。余以所见未能精确，现帖之于网络，望诸君子有以教我。

1、 a fortiori——更加

prep. Latin for "with even stronger reason," which applies to a situation in which if one thing is true then it can be inferred that a second thing is even more certainly true. Thus, if Abel is too young to serve as administrator, then his younger brother Cain certainly is too young.

【注】 a fortiori（更加），系拉丁语，意为“有更充分的理由”。

2、A mensa et thoro——法定分居

A mensa et thoro is a Latin term meaning "from table and bed" which became used in English as "from bed and board."

A kind of divorce which does not dissolve the marriage bond, but merely authorizes a separate life of the husband and wife. Neither spouse has the right to remarry where there is a divorce a mensa et thoro; only parties who have been awarded a divorce a vinculo matrimonii, the more common type of divorce, can do so.

【注】 即一种不解散婚姻关系的离婚。处于此种状态的配偶均不得再婚。

3、A vinculo matrimonii——解除婚姻、离婚
