certus (feminine certa, neuter certum, comparative certior, superlative certissimus, adverb certē or certō); first/second-declension adjective

1. certain
   • 161 BCE, Publius Terentius Afer, Eunuchus 1.59–63:

     In amōre, haec omnia īnsunt vitia: iniūriae,
     suspīciōnēs, inimīcitiae, indūtiae,
     bellum, pāx rūrsum: incerta haec sī tū postulēs
     ratiōne certa facere, nihilō plūs agās
     quam sī dēs operam ut cum ratiōne īnsāniās.

     In love, all these flaws are present: wrongs, suspicions, enmities, truces, war, [and] peace again: if you should desire to make these uncertain [things] certain by reasoning, you would accomplish no more than if you made some effort — by way of reason — to become insane.

   Antonyms: incertus, dubius, suspensus, vagus, anceps
