Amor Vincit Omnis
Vestri Pro Infinitio
Thanks
I hate to say this, but I think your mate has gotten some hideous
grammatical errors put permanently into his skin. It looks like he used
one of those online translation tools.
I guess he wanted the first one to say "Love conquers all". That should
be "Amor vincit omnia". "Amor vincit omnis" means "Love conquers
each". But even then "omnis" is in the wrong case.
The second one seems to want to say "Yours for ever". But "Vestri"
("yours") is plural, both for the belonging and the owning, in other words,
more than one person belonging to more than one other persons. "Pro"
means "for", but in the sense of "in favor of". "Infinitio" means "infinity".
