Hello, there are just a couple words I was hoping someone could help me to translate. "to cut open" or "split" or "cleave" is "Findere" I have found, and I am guessing to "turn inside out" is "Verdo" but I am most likely wrong. I am hoping someone could tell me how "to cut and turn inside out" would be written in latin. Thank you!
@halfthumb,
I took latin for four years a long time ago, so I'm not the right person to answer as I didn't keep up on it, but George answers when he sees a latin question post, and there are likely others on a2k who know more of it than I do. George, though, is our long time expert. Give him some time to see it.
@halfthumb,
Just a quick hopefully not annoying follow up.. would it be much different in translating "I am cut and turned inside out"?
@halfthumb,
Yes, it is quite different.
For a male:
Fissus et invertus sum.
For a female:
Fissa et inverta sum.
hey, @George. thanks so much again. However, just to be another bother, what would be the shortest form, or would there be a single latin word for "I am turned inside out" or "I turn inside out"?
thanks again, you're great!!
@halfthumb,
There
is a single word for "I turn inside out":
Inverto
