Citation: tace
Language: Latin
References: Post Captain, page 475
The Fortune of War, page 219

Meaning: be quiet

Notes:


The phrase 'tace is Latin for a candle', meaning 'keep it quiet' is obscure in origin, but relatively common in 19th century English literature. The correct word in Latin for a candle is candela; tace is the singular, imperative tense of the usual verb for 'be silent'.
