The paper is an attempt of dividing Latin lexemes of the nonrelative degree of a property or state, which is expressed by gradable predicates, traditionally called adverbs of degree. The disitnction of four groups of degree indices is proposed, which characterize a property or state according to categories of intensity, completeness, sufficiency and excess, i.e. (1) Indices of intensity: a. intensifiers describing the high degree of a property or state ( valde, multum, magnopere/magno opere, admodum, bene, male, sane, plane, non mediocriter, abunde, impense, vehementer, graviter, egregie, eximie, mire , mirifice , mirabiliter ), b. disintensifiers describing the low degree of a property or state ( non valde , non magnopere, non admodum, male, mediocriter ); (2) Indices of completeness: a. describing the complete degree of a property or state ( bene , male , plane, admodum, longe, omnino ), b. describing the incomplete degree of a property or state ( prope, paene, non plane ); (3) Indices of sufficiency: a. describing the sufficient degree of a property or state (s atis/sat ), b. describing the insufficient degree of a property or state ( non s atis/sat, parum ) and (4) Indices of excess: a. describing the excess of a property or state ( nimis/nimium, oppido ), b. describing the lack of excess of a property or state ( non nimis ).
