supernumerary: ascriptīcius, ascriptīvus, accensus: all which terms occur in milit. sense, and denote a kind of reserve force (cf. Liv. 8, 8, accensos, minime fiduciae manum): these were later called Supernumerarii, cf. Veg. 2, 19, fin.: accensi, hoc est, postea additi, quos nunc supernumerarios vocant. (For non-milit. sense, perh. ascripticius is the best word.)
