+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ Its main sense is unpolished, rough or crude, of speech and the arts: Cicero says that all civil law other than Rome's is incredibly crude and almost ridiculous.^(OLD 2012) Of people it means unrefined or barbarous, as Sallust's primitive way of life in which all right lay in strength, and of movements clumsy, as Pliny the Elder's dancing elephants.^(OLD 2012) It also means not orderly, confused, and of troops undisciplined, as Livy's raw recruits; the jurist Papinian uses it of a muddled argument.^(OLD 2012) Following other senses of [[condo|alt=condō]], it means unburied in Seneca the Elder, not stored in Columella, and in Tertullian uncreated.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879)
