1. Per se: 2. Vice versa: From the Latin meaning "to change" or "turn around," this term means to reverse the order of something. This quote from Samuel Butler provides an example, "In the midst of vice we are in virtue, and vice versa." 3. Alma mater: The literal translation is "dear/bountiful mother" but you'll find it used in everyday language to denote the college or university from which one graduated

The direct translation of this term is "by itself" and it means just that when used in English as well. You could use it to say that you don't find chemistry boring per se (by itself, intrinsically), but this professor's voice puts you to sleep.
