Pertaining to the Father - or?
Dear Lota,
I am not familiar with this word. Are you sure about the spelling? Do you have any more context?
Things I am thinking of:
Patrini as a genitive or plural nominative adjective (patrinus - as in "pertaining/belonging to the father)...
Patrimi as a genitive or plural nominative adjective (patrimus - as in "who still has a father)
Otherwise, it might be "patroni" as in "advocates", "protectors"... godparents.
The spelling must be wrong or something :(
Hope this helps you,
Flavio
