ceterus

• caeterus (nonstandard)

From Proto-Italic *ke-eteros, from *ke (“here”) +‎ *eteros (“other”).^[1]

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /ˈkeː.te.rus/, [ˈkeːt̪ɛrʊs̠]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ˈt͡ʃe.te.rus/, [ˈt͡ʃɛːt̪erus]

cēterus (feminine cētera, neuter cēterum); first/second-declension adjective

1. the other, remainder, rest

   ad cetera egregius ― outstanding from every aspect

2. besides, also

First/second-declension adjective.

The form *cēterus is hypothetical; this word is unattested in the masculine nominative singular in Classical Latin. The masculine nominative singular form cēter would be equally consistent with the attested forms.
