pick up lines in latin

[Anonymous]

hey guys

soz if this seems like a stupid new thread

I was wondering what would be a good line in latin to say 2 some1 to descrbe her eyes (in a good way)?

 

[Decimvs]

oculi tui pulchri sunt.

Your eyes are beautiful.

 

[Hippocanthus]

This could actually be quite a fun thread...although there may be some problems with translation of things like, 'I seem to have lost my phone number, can I borrow yours?', as I doubt there is a word for phone in Latin? hehe

hahahaha ya thts y i started this thread thnx guys

But now with valintines day just around the corner i need something ultra romantic to put on my gf's card

What do u latin luv gods reckon?

 

[Decimvs]

Propter facta mala eius caesarem interficere opto!

 

[Matthaeus]

There's nothing in today's fast-paced world of technology and computers that cannot be rendered in Latin, trust me. Telephone is simply telephonum, since both its parts are derived from Greek, which Latin later absorbed, so we're actually using Greek here, and not even English! What do you say to that?

This is what I would say to a lady-friend: Affirmo tibi, amantissima, te omnium puellarum hoc in mundo pulcherrimam esse .

I highly doubt a pick-up line ending in 'sunt' would work very well in a nightclub

Maybe something like: Sentio oculos tuos pulchrrimos esse.

No lady would understand this, anyway. Only Latinists can appreciate it.

Except for lady Latinists, of course.

In which case, say this:

VIVAMVS·MEA·LESBIA·ATQVE·AMEMVS
RVMORESQVE·SENVM·SEVERIORVM
OMNES·ÆSTIMEMVS·ASSIS
SOLES·OCCIDERE·&·REDIRE·POSSVNT

DEINDE·VSQVE·ALTERA·M·DEINDE·C

Yes, of course, lady Latinists, sorry. So let's finish it:

DEIN CVM MILIA MVLTA FECERIMVS
CONTVRBABIBVS ILLA NE SCIAMVS
AVT NEQVIS MALVS INVIDERE POSSIT
CVM TANTVM SCIAT ESSE BASIORVM.

No better way to charm a person than by reciting love poetry, honestly.
