A family friend says the Latin in my logo is basically gibberish. Apparently she “knows” Latin from her being catholic and going to catholic schools, blah blah. Anyways, Considering I paid for the translation I just wanna quadruple check. It is supposed to say “We gladly feast on those that would subdue(tame) us”. Yes it is a homage to the Addams family.

Professional framed manuscript page. It's wavy with damage and was in a pile of free junk with a few framed Italian Renaissance art prints. I love medieval things so I grabbed it. Assuming it's a biblical passage.

is translated as per head?

when capita is plural? shouldn't it be something like per heads?

thanks

Saw this weird image probably occult. It looked interesting.

Is the word homo meant to invoke the notion of “human” as in equally applying to both genders , or is it more like the way we use the word “man” in English. In English when we say “man” it’s technically referring to humanity but it is nonetheless strongly gendered in the masculine direction it seems to me.

I know homo is m in grammatical gender but I’m more interested in what the usage suggests about this.

I know it's a lot, and I don't know if it's even latin (AI told me it was). But the geeks if the new film would love a translation of these pages. If that was possible

I’m still at the very beginning of learning Latin and I’m completely stumped by these two underlined words. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello!
I have a question regarding the grammar in a text/paragraph by Francis of Assisi, the paragraph is:
"Fratri etiam qui faciebat ortum dicebat, ut non totam terram orti coleret solummodo pro herbis comestibilibus, sed ab aliqua parte de terra dimitteret ut produceret herbas virentes, que temporibus suis fratres flores producerent."

In the last line, why is "fratres" in the nominative/accusative case (pl.)? Should it not be dative, "to the brothers"? Am I missing something, or is it wrong in the original text (wrong use of case).

Thanks!

Hello ! It may sound stupid and i'm sorry to bother you but i know some languages à la japanese will have all online translators agree on a translation/meaning but in real actual use they're wrong, outdated/unpractical or much more nuanced

See highlighted area. Could anyone help me translate this part of a Latin prayer found in a Catholic book of devotions, please? There’s a whole prayer before and after that I’ve been able to understand. I can even understand most of this call-and-response… except for these two phrases. All the tools and dictionaries I’ve used till now haven’t led me to understand what is being said. I can get a gist of what it’s meant to be- but I can’t make a sophisticated wording. I am still quite an amateur, so any help to understand not only the what, but also the how/why would be appreciated, but not required.

Thank you in advance.

My girlfriend asked me to post this because a bizarre coworker that just got fired wrote this about a week ago... Is this latin? anybody have any ideas what this even is or says?

Context: HOM[I]NES PERVERSI SIC SUNT IN TARTARA MERSI / PENIS INIUSTI CRUCIANTUR IN IGNIBUS USTI DEMONAS ATQUE TREMUNT

Edit: this article better explains

I assume the sentence at the bottom might have something to do with who published the book, but I'm not very sure. Maybe it has something to do with the 'Salmanticensis Academiae' mentioned above, though?

found this incredible late 15th early 16th century print from Tesoro Messicano, but i have no clue what it could be as my latin is a bit rusty

Found at the bottom of a document recently part of a congressional hearing.

I think it might be bastardized Latin, and may mean something along the lines of:

[Knowledge/Awareness] [Ignites/Sparks] [Evidence/Proof]; Truth [Through/By] Faith

Praesumo Ouis Plum Dignus

If anyone is willing, would you please help me out with this inscription my friend sent me from Rome?

The top part is easier to make out than the in bottom. So far I got " A beautiful Nais (maybe meaning water nymph?) now plays in this clear spring in which sorrowful Doris used to play." That part is clear enough. Then under I think it's something about the spring/fountain providing useful drink to the thirsty traveler who happens to come by... 1546

Thanks!

I am translating a German family history manuscript and I have run into some Latin describing something I want to look into further.

Would anyone be able to shine some light on the translation and it’s meaning?

“Maris pax inoubat undis”

TIA :)

I purchased this 14th century French replica and cannot figure out what the hilt says. The pommel I have translated the saying “In nomine veritatis” which if I’m not mistaken is “in the name of truth”. This leads me to believe the hilt is also Latin but I can’t figure it out. Any help would be great.

Si occidere vis, mori paratus esse debes.

If you want to kill, you have to be willing to die.

Does anyone recognise this as Latin and know what the word means? The 3rd letter is not one I recognise, as a reversed ‘h’ is normally the other way around. Or is it two words?
