Hello ladies and gents, I hope that perhaps one of you might help me. Can someone please translate the phrase "Stand shagging still" into Latin.

I realise it is probably unlikely that there will be a latin word for 'shagging', even in vulgar, but something close will likely suffice. Its sort of a joke. A load of lads due to pass out of their military training are getting t-shirts made up, they wanted a motto for the group, and as their Sgt is always telling them to "Stand Shagging Still" they thought it would be quite funny to have it printed in latin on the front.

Many thanks
David

@MadPony,

Well, thanks to Austin Powers even Americans know what "shagging" is slang
for. However, I don't know any Latin slang. Somewhere out there, I'm sure
there's an expert on Latin slang, but it ain't me. Having said that, I do know the
Latin word for that other word. So here's a translation for "Stand F*cking Still."

State Futuente Stativi.

It wouldn't make much sense to a Roman Legionary if his centurion bellowed it
at him. ("How can I be f*cking if I'm standing still?") But it's probably close
enough for your purpose.

My congrats to the lads.
