Looking for a translation for a tattoo... urgent
Hey I'm getting a tattoo of a musical note with a banner under it, and I want the banner to say "live music" in Latin ("live" the verb, not the adjective). If anyone can translate this for me, I would really appreciate it.

Same as last one... modified slightly
OK... I have another idea for my tattoo, and it is to have "fly with music" in Latin. If anyone could translate that, as well as the one from my last post, that would be great. I'm getting the tattoo tomorrow morning (Tuesday June 21) so hopefully someone will reply before then.

fly with music = cum musica volare
live music = musicam spirare (the idea being you that music is your "oxygen"), "de musica vivere" ("to live on music") or possibly "ad musicam natus" (born 4 music---needs to be "nata" if it refers to a woman) or else "vivere pro musica" (music is the purpose of your living)

I would translate that Vos contemno, sidera!
Now, since this is for a tattoo, please get other opinions, translations.
I'm not a professional Latin scholar, just some guy who does this for fun.

Hello again, vodkagirl001
"by my side" is in latere meo. You can add that to the end of the sentence.
Similarly:
"All that I need is by my side'' Omnis quod necesse est in latere meo est
''All that I need is always by my side'' Omnis quod necesse est in latere meo semper est
''All that i need will stay by my side'' Omnis quod necesse est in latere meo stabit
Some help please
Hi everyone. What a fascinating thread!
I am here because I would like to get some english translated into latin. The phrase is "reduce misery and delay death." I had "miseria reductio et mortis tardo", but now I realise that reductio is not "reduce" but is "restore." I dont want "restore misery"!
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Hey George, thank you so much for the help. I have one more quote that I forgot to mention before that you might be able to help me with.
"Let justice be done though the heavens fall."
Once again, thanks for the help.

Hi, "HG" (did you by any chance get hitched just this past Sat. afternoon? Had heard that for some, twosomeness is divine, but didn't know that matrimony transformed a body into the 3rd person of the Trinity. )
1. amare et fovere
2. amare et defendere
3. semper in corde meo

Re: Some help please
By "misery" I'm assuming you mean "suffering," right?
"reduce misery & delay death" = dolorem (or miseriam) deminuere et mortem morari (almost a pun there! :wink: )
(PS: "reductio" is the noun, not the verb; that would be "reducere")

"Let justice be done though the heavens fall."
