Erik,

If you do a veronica gopher search by title word via U. of Manitoba 
gopher server using latin as the search word you will find a latin 
directory in which there is a latin wordlist (149K text file) that could 
be downloaded and retrieved into WP51 from which a search or cut/paste 
could be performed. It's not a thorough lexicon but you may want to look 
at it. Using a similar search you may also find something better.
