My Strength. My Life. My Family

Post Maltesestar Mon Feb 08, 2010 12:39 am

Hey Guys,

Need a quote translated for an upcoming tattoo.

I've done some online translation but would rather trust you guys.

"My Strength. My Life. My Family."

In reference to my family, I mean my immediate family.

Thanks!

Re: Tattoo translation please

Post Iohannes Aurum Mon Feb 08, 2010 2:24 am

Here goes (note that I am a novice in translating):
Vis meum. Vita mea. Familia mea.

Please wait for others to reply first.
I am also known as Iohannes Aureus (John the Golden), though Aurum is used as my surname as Gold.

Proper context and perfect grammar are necessary for me to translate correctly, and I reserve the right to ask for additional context and/or revision!

Vis is feminine
Num prohibere licet pellem compungere uerbis?
Lex foedare homines non uetat ulla cutem.
Mutata decoris quosdam post mente pigebit:
„Lex utinam pungi me uetuisset acu!“

This will be interesting:
Vis mea. Vita mea. Familia mea.

By coincidence, all is feminine.
I am also known as Iohannes Aureus (John the Golden), though Aurum is used as my surname as Gold.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the translations so far.

Would I be right to go with the fourth post "Vis mea. Vita mea. Familia mea."?

I'm looking at getting the tattoo within the next week or two.

Looks correct.
Lingua latina sempiterna ac viva sit.
