ARGH. We have started a new term. I have all new students in each class except AP. Grace has a fever. I feel like I need to stay here until the nurse comes, thus missing two classes, but a sub can't teach what I want taught. Fuckity.

So glad CJ made it home!
Within moral philosophy, they're still used entirely interchangeably. And, of course, in derivation they're simply the Latin and the Greek for exactly the same thing.
