USURA, see _Fænus_. [[main entry spelled "Foenus"]]

USURPARE, see _Uti_.

UTERQUE; AMBO; UTERVIS; UTERLIBET. 1. +Uterque+ denotes 'both,' as two

unities, like #hekateros#; +ambo+, as the halves of a pair, like

#amphô#. Cic. Fin. ii. 7. Hic, qui _utramque_ probat, _ambobus_ debuit

uti. Orat. 6, 21. Terent. Ad. i. 2, 50. Curemus æquam _uterque_ partem;

tu alterum, ego alterum; nam _ambos_ curare propemodum reposcere illum

est quem dedisti. Plin. Pan. 90, 4. Vell. P. ii. 66. This difference is

palpable from Cic. Mur. 18, 37. Duæ res vehementer in prætura desideratæ

sunt, quæ _ambæ_ in consulatu Murenæ profuerunt . . . . Horum _utrumque_

ei fortuna ad consulatus petitionem reservavit. And Orat. iii. 26.

A quibus _utrisque_ submittitur aliquid. 2. +Uterque+ and +ambo+ are

copulative, and may be resolved into _unus et alter_, and have their

predicate actually in common; whereas +utervis+ and +uterlibet+ are

disjunctive, and may be resolved into _unus vel alter_, and have their

predicate in common only by possibility. Ter. Andr. prol. 10. Qui

_utramvis_ recte norit, _ambos_ noverit. (iv. 349.)

UTI; USURPARE; FRUI; FRUNISCI. +Uti+ and +usurpare+ denote the mere act

of using, by which a person turns a thing to his advantage; but +uti+

(from #oiô#) a permanent use; +usurpare+ (usui rapere) a single act of

using; whereas +frui+ and the antiquated word +frunisci+ (from

#phronein#), the pleasant feeling of this use, as to enjoy; +frui+ is

the primitive, +frunisci+ the inchoative of the verb. Sen. Vit. B. 10.

Tu voluptate _frueris_, ego _utor_. Flor. ii. 6. Hannibal cum victoria

posset _uti_, _frui_ maluit. Cic. Rosc. Am. 45, 131. Commoda, quibus

_utimur_, lucem, qua _fruimur_, spiritumque, quem ducimus, a Deo nobis

dari. Cic. Cat. iii. 2, 5. Quorum opera . . . assidue _utor_; comp. with

Fin. ii. 35, 118. In ea, quam sæpe _usurpabas_, tranquillitate degere

omnem vitam. Cic. Orat. 51, 169. Post inventa conclusio est, qua credo

_usuros_ veteres illos fuisse, si jam nota et _usurpata_ res esset.

(iii. 134.)
