Hello! I want to get a tatto with this phrase, but I'm in serious doubt about how it's written.
I got the idea from a manga, in which the tatto is written like this "Nec possum tecum vivere, nec sine te."
But doing some research, I found that this quote comes from Martial, Epigrams XII, 46, in which I find that the text is written like "Nec tecum possum vivere, nec sine te."
When I enter these two phrases on Google translate, I get the first one that has Possum first like "And I can not live with you, nor without you." And the second, that has Tecum before Possum as "I can live neither with you, nor without you."
So my question is, changing the order of one word changes the phrase? How is it written propperly? Is there any difference or is just Google Translate taking a prank on me? I really want to know because it is a tatto that I'm going after, I can't afford any mistakes or typos on something that is forever
Thanks for your help
