+

+ ==Etymology==

+ It is [[af|la|ad-|notō|t1=to|t2=to mark, note]].^(OLD 2012)^(TLL)^(Wiktionary) [[m|la|notō]] is from [[m|la|nota|t=mark, sign]], whose origin de Vaan leaves open: he follows Schrijver in rejecting a derivation from the root of [[m|la|nōscō|t=to get to know]].^(de Vaan 2008) A grammar ascribed to Fronto distinguishes them: one who marks a place, person or offence uses [[m|la|notō]], one who adds something to a mark uses this verb.^(TLL)

+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==

+ The TLL finds it first in Seneca the Elder, of points noted down in declamations, and absent from the poets except Juvenal.^(TLL) Its earliest example in the OLD, from Valerius Maximus, notes the generosity of Q. Considius.^(OLD 2012)

+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ It is a prose word for putting something on record in writing, and also for observing or noticing a fact, as when Seneca the Elder remarks that repetition is less noticed in speeches.^(OLD 2012)^(TLL) Columella uses it of marking vines and of noting what was given out, when and to whom;^(OLD 2012)^(TLL) Pliny the Younger describes a reader who lay in the sun while a book was read, marking passages and making extracts.^(OLD 2012) In imperial law it is to register or designate a person for some action, as Pliny the Younger designates people to be sent to Rome, and Ulpian of the emperor assigning islands to the deported.^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary) Church Latin glosses it to note in writing.^(Stelten 1995)
