Quick question:  whut's the "q.v." mean?  /Quo vadis/?  I've seen you
use this before, but keep forgetting to ask...



quod vide = Latin for "which [you should] look up". From the Concise Oxford Dictionary (7th edition 1982, reprinted [...] 1987):

q.v. abbr. = QUOD\2 vide

quod\2 pron. [...] ~ vide, which see (in cross and other references). (L., = which, neut. of /qui/ who).

If your unilingual or bilingual English dictionary doesn't mention it, get a better one ;-).


Best regards,
