1) "First" in Latin is not "prime", but "primus". "prime: Etymology 1 From Old (and modern) French prime, from Latin primus (“first”), from Old Latin pri (“before”), from Proto-Indo-European *per- (“beyond, before”)." Source and further information: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/prime 2) "Primus, -a, -um First Secundus, -a, -um Second Tertius, -a, -um Third" Source and further information: http://www.flashcardexchange.com/flashcards/list/242365 3) The analogous French words are not use as ordinal numbers, but for instance in fencing: " Prime, Seconde, Tierce, Quarte, Sixte, Septime, and Octave."
