 === tempestas ===
-The Latin word ''tempestas'' can mean "weather" or "storm". In contrast, Chinese has 天气 "weather" and 风暴 "storm". One way we can distinguish between these two senses is by looking at the adjectives that are associated with ''tempestas''. For example, if the ''tempestas'' is ''pulchra'' "beautiful", it's probably talking about the "weather", not the "storm" (of course it's possible to speak of a "beautiful storm", but it's not the most likely case).

 You might think "long hair," "curly hair," etc. might be good choices, but I think Chinese uses a different word for hair in these phrases. Since the primary meaning of 头 is "head," we will have ''caput'' as the default translation.
