Adjective

- (Late Latin) comprovincial, of the same province
- c. 430 CE – c. 489 CE, Sidonius Apollinaris, Letters 7.7.4:
- parum in commūne cōnsulitis; et, cum in concilium convenītis, nōn tam cūrae est pūblicīs medērī perīculīs quam prīvātīs studēre fortūnīs; quod utique saepe diūque facientēs iam nōn prīmī comprōvinciālium coepistis esse, sed ultimī.
- You consider the common good too little; and, when you come together into a council, there is not so much concern to remedy public dangers than to pursue private fortunes. At any rate, because of you doing this often and for a long time, you have already begun to be not the first of the comprovincial, but the last.
- parum in commūne cōnsulitis; et, cum in concilium convenītis, nōn tam cūrae est pūblicīs medērī perīculīs quam prīvātīs studēre fortūnīs; quod utique saepe diūque facientēs iam nōn prīmī comprōvinciālium coepistis esse, sed ultimī.
