Here's how it works. i type a sentence -- sentences, P/pl -- in Latin. The person below me translates and types in their own sentence. Let's see if Y/you remember Y/your Latin (all Y/you old Catholics, lmao) or can Google with the best of T/them. Here's my sentence: Abutebaris modo subjunctivo denuo. candystripper

Well that one's clever. "You were misusing the subjunctive mood again." I'll do the next one; I borrowed it from Ron: "Nihil deest ad regnandum praeter regnum."

Looks like the Latin game was short-lived.

Lovers are insane. But no one ever did "Nihil deest ad regnandum praeter regnum."

It means (loosely): "All you need to be a king is a kingdom." quote: ORIGINAL: missgiveNTake quote: ORIGINAL: Lordandmaster I'll do the next one; I borrowed it from Ron: "Nihil deest ad regnandum praeter regnum." The best I can do is: " nothing to fail to regnandum past rule "

Da mihi sis bubulæ frustrum assæ, solana tuberosa in modo gallico fricta, ac quassum lactatum coagulatum crassum

Lordandmaster -> RE: The Game of Latin (5/29/2006 12:37:06 AM)
That's supposed to mean "Give me a hamburger, French fries, and a thick milk shake." Not too good. Literally, it means "Please give me a morsel of roast beef, tuberous nightshades roasted in the French style, and a fat coagulated milky act of shaking." And it should be "frustum," not "frustrum." I see it written "frustrum" on the net, but that's wrong. I'm kind of too pooped to invent a saying in Latin, so I'll let someone else go.

With consideration for community standards... Unmentionables are unmentionables and so unmentionables do unmentionablish things :) Uti, non abuti

To use, not to abuse. OK, next one: "Quot servi tot hostes." quote: ORIGINAL: champagnewishes Uti, non abuti

quote: ORIGINAL: Lordandmaster To use, not to abuse. OK, next one: "Quot servi tot hostes." quote: ORIGINAL: champagnewishes Uti, non abuti "Quot servi tot hoste." "There are as many enemies as there are slaves." Next sentence: "Contra malum mortis non est medicamentum in hortis." pinkee

There is no medical remedy for death. Cum tacent, clamant

Emperor1956 -> RE: The Game of Latin (5/29/2006 4:01:58 PM)
quote: Cum tacent, clamant I know NO Latin, except that horribly bastardized legal latin "we" use. So, here goes: Propriety forbids My translating that, but lets just say that it tells a man that his ejaculative fluids taste like old bivalves. Nemo estares viventes. E. _______________ And of course LaM knows Latin. Of course. smile

quote: ORIGINAL: champagnewishes Cum tacent, clamant I would loosely translate it as: their silence speaks volumes but I guess a more literal translation is when they are silent, they shout. Esse quam videri

Lordandmaster -> RE: The Game of Latin (5/29/2006 4:59:00 PM)
Well, yes, but the point is that every slave is an enemy. However many slaves you own, that's how many enemies you have. Not that I believe it... quote: ORIGINAL: pinkee quote: ORIGINAL: Lordandmaster OK, next one: "Quot servi tot hostes." "There are as many enemies as there are slaves."
