One thing though, Bob.
It's spelled fructus, not fructis.

I'm not that Bob, but thanks anyway for the tip - I've been spelling it wrong on my blogroll all this time! So mortifying, too, for someone who like to throw scraps of Latin around...

Mea maxima culpa!
Second declension nominative, I assume.
us -i-o-um-o
or is it the more rare us-us-ui-um-o?
It's been a while.

According to my trusty First Year Latin textbook (acquired almost 40 years ago), "fructus" is indeed the latter: a 4th declension noun.
