Special fund Explanation: Ad hoc is a classic "false friend" i.e it means different things in Italian and English. English from wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ave_atque_vale#A Generally means "for this", in the sense of improvised on the spot or designed for only a specific, immediate purpose. Rather than relying on ad hoc decisions, we should form a consistent plan for dealing with emergency Italian from wiki: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hoc Ad hoc: letteralmente per questo. L'espressione è utilizzata con il significato di "appropriato al contesto". Per esempio, "citare un verso ad hoc" significa riportare un verso appropriato al contesto del discorso. "Indossare un abito ad hoc" significa scegliere un abito per un'occasione particolare. "Ad hoc" vuol dire anche "per un determinato scopo" I cite wiki not as an authority, but simply because it confirms and explains what I have long known.
