we wish to give our ladies sports team logo a motto, namely "forever strong".
I had thought of "fortis in perpetuum". Does it mean "for ever strong" or "strong forever"?? Should it be fortis or forti with no s. (Also it is not "in perpertua"?)
Can anyone who knows for certain assist.
Regards
Nick

@nickbe,
Fortis means strong. It is singular. The plural is fortes.

I'm not sure what the difference is between "for ever strong" and "strong
forever" so I won't comment on that.

The correct form is in perpetuum, not in perpetua.

I'd be happy to discuss/explain any of this if you'd like.
