translate into latin a phrase that has ment alot to me

That is a very idiomatic sentence and (for me, at least) difficult to translate.
Maybe someone else will take a stab at it also. I fear that Latin will sound
nowhere near as good as the English.

I'll post back here later.

Yep, I'm stumped.

I'll have to ask one of my professors and get back to you (Hooray for Latin Prose Composition this semester). Might be a little while.

Is "Latin Prose Composition" being taught in Latin?

Nah. I doubt even the grad students (it is a grad course )could handle that without taking some sort of preliminary course. He'd have to talk to us like 6-year olds.

There is a lot of Latin spoken in the class though--he'll ask you stuff and expect you to understand/answer, it's just that the vocabulary can be sort of a problem. We all know how to talk about cavalry maneuvers, but day-to-day stuff...not so much.

However, we do have a "latin dinner group," where we just go out to a restaurant and speak latin for a couple hours. It's a blast, and you learn a LOT...like the Latin word for salad (acetaria). I don't think I said anything at all the first two times I went...then I realized why everyone else was drinking wine. It really helps o.0

In vino Latinitas...

So here's my take on it:

Nil sapit dulcius quam gracilitas esse sentitur

(Literally, Nothing tastes as sweet as thinness is felt to be)

other trans
thank you so much the other way i had seen it translated is:

Nihilum sapor ut bonus ut levidensis sentio

is that right?

I smell an online translator!--it's essentially gibberish. Compare to the English "nothing flavor how good how lightness i feel."



That's pretty damn good.
