+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ Its senses are “in an up-to-date manner, à la mode”, in Plautus, and “in a new or unfamiliar manner”, as in the advice of the ''Rhetorica ad Herennium'' that nothing should be said confusedly or in an unfamiliar way.^(OLD 2012) Its superlative [[novissimē]] is treated separately in the OLD.^(OLD 2012) Church Latin glosses it “recently, lately, newly, in an unusual manner”.^(Stelten 1995)
