The Audi automobile company derived its name from this phrase. I'm almost certain that this is false. "Audi" ist just Latin for the founder's name, Horch (imperative of horchen, "to listen"). Why should a carmaker name itself after a juridic principle?--87.162.67.249 22:38, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Audi comes from the founder's name. Removing this piece of [uncited] nonsense. -- Ekjon Lok (talk) 23:07, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Even with a citation as there is now (which I did nor check!), I doubt that the fact that some student once used the phrase to be heard in a discussion he was not originally invited to (even though he was not an opposing (altera) part) is relevant enough to occupy almost half the length of the article. After all, the story still goes on to tell that the suggested Audi is derived from the family name Horch and not because the same verb happens to appear in the phrase. I certainly would not miss that section if someone removes it. Hagman (talk) 09:36, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

Why is there mention of Greek drama and islamic law as well as some modern usage, but nothing about any relevance of this Latin phrase in ancient Rome? Hagman (talk) 09:27, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
