Die with no regrets

[Seranimo]

Hello there. I am new here. I want to know the translation of "Die with no regrets" or "Don't die regretful"

"Die with no regrets" (as a command) could be translated as
morere sine paenitentia.

That's a way to put it. Let's hope Seranimo isn't a Christian, though, because in Christian Latin it would be interpreted a little differently — in a way that might make a Christian worried for their soul.

 

[Seranimo]

Thank you both for replies. I am not a Christian. A friend of mine wants a tattoo of this sentence, thats the reason of the question.

 

[Dantius]

Is that friend of yours a Christian, though?

 

[Seranimo]

Nope . She is not.

 

[Issacus Divus]

Why would Christian Latin take it that way?

 

[Pacifica]

In Christian Latin, paenitentia refers chiefly to repentance or penance for one's sins. You had a chance to repent as long as you were alive. If you died unrepentant, however, you were doomed to hell.

Since "regret" is said to come from the Old French regreter, "bewail (the dead)," one might use a form of maereo, "grieve, lament, bewail, mourn over."

morere nil maerens.

= "Die grieving over (regretting) nothing."
