Word origin

Learned borrowing from Latin flātus (“blowing, wind, fart”). First attested in the 1660s–1670s.

Used in a sentence

  • This expression is utterly devoid of meaning, a mere flatus vocis.
  • The point of quoque with illos is that those flatus, which have the right to be called winds, are also subject to laws like the winds themselves.
