Latin name for spider?

I need to combine Porcus and whatever the latin name for spider is (please help with that). Also, Can ya help me with combining the to.THANX SO MUCH

Latin name for spider?
Martox's answer is OK, but two points:





1) aranea can also mean spider as well as spider's-web (as the link he has provided shows). Therefore, you can use either aranea or araneus to mean spider.





2) assuming you want to know "Spiderpig" (as in the song from the Simpson's Movie), you should not be wanting to say "Spider-and-pig". Instead, you want to join the two words in one of the following ways:





- porcaranea (feminine)


- porcaraneus (masculine)


- araneaporca (feminine)


- araneoporcus (masculine)





The last two are probably best, as they contain the elements for spider and pig in that order. If you're a girl and it's a nickname for yourself, I recommend araneaporca.
Reply:The most used Latin word for spider is "Araneus" (while "aranea" is the spider's web).


To put together with Porcus you'll need for a conjunction that could be "et" or "ac" or "atque" or also "que" added to the second name.


Therefore Pig and Spider would be either "Porcus et araneus" or "Porcus atque araneus" or "Porcus araneusque". You can pick the one you like the best since all above conjunctions are interchangeable...!!


However this is valid if both nouns are the subject of the sentence. Should them be the direct object (as in "I've seen a pig and a spider") they would change into accusative case and translate "porcum et araneum vidi" or "porcum araneumque vidi"
Reply:Just checked my book...it's araneus or arano. Plural is Araneae.





In a combo form, you could try something like porcarano or aranoporcus.

Reply:Spanish word for spider is ara帽a. And pig is puerco.





ara帽a-puerco
Reply:There's no such thing: they just took the Greek word arakhnidon and turned it into "arachnid", and called that a Latin word!
