... Hate to break it up to you, Kongou, but "bronto-" is not Latin in origin. It's Greek. Seriously, it's enough that you're often depicted as a false Brit who regularly massacres the English language; now you feel the need to pretend that you're an expert in dead languages of academic importance? XD
Well, she is Kongou. It's almost a running gag for her to mess up referencing something in an effort for her character to remain notable after having her role as the Engrish stolen by Iowa and the Brit superceded by Warspite.

Hey, at least she's the only shipgirl who is 1) Japanese in origin, 2) regularly uses actual English (well, Engrish) words in her dialogue, and 3) has an actual justification to speak any amount of English/Engrish than any other shipgirl who fulfills the former two conditions (namely, being built in an English-speaking country).
Even though you're so big!Hey!You want to wreck the house or what!What? You want some pat? Oh, you baby!This is a Brontosaurus!Geeeez! That dinosaur something chewed on my hair!"Bronto" in Latin means "thunder". It makes a thunder-like roaring sound when it walks, that's why it was named so!No, that's an Apatosaurus.
