I have this phrase I'm trying to translate to latin:

Grant me to recognize in other beings, Lord God, the radiance of your own face.

If anyone has an idea of how to translate this, that would be wonderful.
Thank you kindly.

How do you say "Forever" in Latin. Forever as in loving a person forever. Thanks so much. Really appreciate it.

@toshj,

The Classical pronunciation is:
Day TRAHdeeto beLAHtor NEEhil skeet

NOTE: before you have this tattooed, please have someone else review it.
I'm not a professional Lation scholar, just a guy who does this for fun.

Oh mighty Latin internet peoples. I need a translation into Latin for this piece of advice given to Michelangelo from Leonardo DaVinci regarding the rendering of his statue of Kind David:

"It's your name on this thing, kid. Don't fuck it up."

Thanks in advance.

@metaphive,

Nomen tuum est in hoc, puer.
Noli foedare.

Note: "foedare" is not literally "f*ck it up".

Hey George, Im back for another translation. I would like to have this quote translated....
"It is better to live one day as a lion, than to live a lifetime as a lamb"
Ive come up with this....
Praestat unum diem ut leo vivere, quam totam vitam ut ovis
or should it be...
Praestat vivere unum diem ut leo, quam totam vitam ut ovis
Or am I completely off? Please reply with your translation and if you can please correct mine, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanx George!!

@Hassei,

I'd use "melior est" rather than "Praestat", "sicut" rather than "ut" and put
"uno die" and "tota vita" in the ablative.
Thus:
Melior est uno die sicut leo quam tota vita sicut agnus vivere

Hi George,

Seems like you are the resident latin expert Smile

would I be wrong to translate "wasted youth" as "Attero Juvenis" ?

I have come to realize that there are many words I could use for both youth - young man, time of youth, etc...
or
wasted - some meaning to erod, some meaning to squander or consume.

Would Attero Juvenis be a clever play on words, or am I missing the point altogether?

@outty,

"Attero" means "I rub away" or "I rub against".

"Juvenis" means "young" or, as a substantive, "young man" or
"young woman" or "youth" ( in the sense of a young person).

So, yes, I think you would be wrong.

In what sense do you see this as a play on words?
