please, the most illustrious latin-translator, give me the honour of asking you a question 🙏

i, your mere subject, ask, humbly, for the translation of these two phrases,

"Lady of the Manor."

and,

"Twirling and whirling."

Salve!

"lady of the manor": domina domus

"twirling and whirling" : versans contorquensque

tibi gratia ago pro quaerenti!

thank you for the comment - as i said im not an expert and this blog is mostly just for fun so any advice is appreciated :)

Hey! I was wondering, if it is okay, if you could help me translate this phrase: “Not enough darkness can destroy me”? I made a research. I think for “not enough darkness” it can also be “non satis obscuritas”.

I’d be glad to read your answer. Thanks in advance either way.

Firstly, thank you for the ask! I would be more than happy to translate, although I am by no means an expert, so take it with a grain of salt. I studied Latin in high school but have little formal education outside of that. Also I apologize because I’m a huge stickler for context when it comes to translation so i will offer a few choices, as english has a lot of things that have the same words but can mean different things.

There’re a few words one could use for darkness. tenebra would be a literal darkness, lack of light, or shadow. scelus would be used to mean an evil force. As you said, obscuritas has a similar meaning to tenebra, but could also mean something unknown or uncertain.

If the specific meaning is “a lack of darkness is able to destroy me”, I would use:

tenebra para me deicere potest

If the meaning is “there is not enough darkness in the world to destroy me”:

tenebrae satis non sunt ut me deicant

and of course if youd like to use a different word for darkness, just sub it out with tenebra (just dont forget to change the adjective’s gender endings!)

Amo quando animal quod non canis est tamen catulum appelatur

Commentarium interpretis: I'm not sure about this specific example, but it's not uncommon for a word that stands for a category of things to later specialize to one meaning (apple used to just mean fruit, if I remember right). Not sure if that's what happened here but either way those bats are adorable.

love it when a nondog baby animal is called a pup anyway

Mane ego et amans meus collucutus estis de percy jackson. Roma Nova in auster Californiae est. Cogitite: libri multi, in urbem aviam vitantes. generationes linguas solas Latinae Anglicaeque dicebant, et omnes cum X annis militare debent. Ita, habeantne certe accentus plus peregrinissimus?
