As per the Merriam-Webster dictionary: Main Entry: 1la·tent Pronunciation: 'lA-t&nt Function: adjective Etymology: Middle English, from Latin latent-, latens, from present participle of latEre to lie hidden; akin to Greek lanthanein to escape notice : present and capable of becoming though not now visible, obvious, or active I have failed to find a gismu for that word and finding a suitable combination to make a lujvo. Any ideas?
