caprimulgus

1. Literally means "Milker of goats" in Latin or "Goat Milker." In anicent times people who milked goats were usually poor or enslaved. So calling someone a caprimulgus was belittling them to that of a slave or poor person.

It is now seen primarily in "The Daughters of the Moon" book series by Lynne Ewing. Where some of the characters speak Latin and Ancient Greek.
Stanton(yelling back to someone): Caprimulgus!
Serena: "Milker of goats"?
Stanton: It's an insult, trust me.

Capricorn

The tenth zodiac sign, it covers people born December 22 to January 19 and is represented by a goat.

Capricorns are ambitious, modest, patient, responsible, stable, trustworthy, powerful, intellectual, perspicacious and persistent.

But they can also be boring and stubborn.

Capricorns are basically a modified Aries (who happen to be their ram cousins), and thus they get along really well with Ariens and Scorpios.

Opposite sign = Cancer
Gets along with = Aries, Taurus, Virgo, Leo, Scorpio
It's anything but a breeze to grasp the Capricorn char­acter. You'll learn to recognize this Sun sign, but you'll need some preliminary practice. Study the quiet spider in the comer. He hasn't a chance against the fast-flying insects. But they get caught in his cleverly spun web -- and the spider wins. Remember Aesop's slow tortoise, humorously crawling in that race. He hasn't a chance against the quick, bright hare. But the flighty hare goes in all directions, for­getting the goal -- the tortoise wins. Observe the goat, as he scales the mountainside. He hasn't a chance against the strategy of the smarter humans who pursue him. But the hunters fall behind as the sturdy goat climbs determinedly from crag to crag on his uniquely designed hooves -- and the goat wins.

Now study a Capricorn. Where will you find him? Just about anywhere he can advance or improve himself. Any­where he can get ahead and further his secret ambitions. Try a social gathering. The Capricorn is not a carefree party type, but the goat we're studying is a social climber as well as a mountain climber. Pick a mixed group, prefer­ably in the upper income level. You can also try the middle income level, but the lower you go beneath that, the smaller your chances of finding a Capricorn. He probably won't be wearing a lamp shade on his head, tap dancing or calling attention to himself in any way; he'll be the admiring spec­tator in the background. You may not even notice him at first as he quietly and calmly watches all the flashy, pushy, charming, aggressive and brilliant personalities around him. Everyone in the group will seem to have su­perior equipment for the race -- any race. Lots of them are bluffing, some of them are afraid, but they're all highly polished, and the Capricorn doesn't seem to have a chance against them. Yet, he will win.
