Wow, your signature is crazy :) What's this now? --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 19:56, 25 November 2008 (CET)

So anyone know why we use it? Where did it come from?--Annia Minucia Marcella 02:05, 26 November 2008 (CET)

It comes from Latin sublectio that means "appointment". --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 10:25, 26 November 2008 (CET)

So is it a made up word based on Latin? --Annia Minucia Marcella 19:01, 26 November 2008 (CET)
