Apis is Latin, melisson is Greek. And since "hetero" and "homo" are also Greek, I followed the precedent. If it were Latin, "homosexual" would mean "sexually attracted to humans".

For example, I work with one team that requires two months of mean time between failure (MTBF) testing before releasing their product, which includes both hardware and software.
The book is Agile Estimating and Planning, sitting on our producer's desk. So my first child will be an Agile producer. Kind of determined without even having to open the book, really.

Naturally, members of the Veiled Alliance (and anyone else suspicious of arcane magic) regard dragonborn with suspicion.
Destined for great things, it seems.

Jane Eyre:
"I was stiff with long sitting, and bewildered with the noise."

I can get behind that.
