Hello and thank you for this wonderful Topic.
Based on the Cogito ergo sum concept, I wanted to say something like...
I think but what am I?

How can I say that? Can you please help?

Thank you so very much.

@black28,

Here's how I'd do it.

Cogito, sed quid sum?

Cogito -> I think
sed -> but
quid -> what
sum -> am I

@George,

I'd answer that question this way, George:

- Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto.

@Francis,

For those unfamiliar with that Latin sentence, Francis is quoting the Roman
playwright Terence (P. Terentius Afer). It is usually translated:
"I am a man, I consider nothing that is human alien to me."

@George,

i'll be sure to keep an eye on this thread. I've studied Latin in high school, but since I'm not using it.. it's as if I never learned a bit.
thank you again Smile

@George,

Geo, didn't post it fully correctly . . . Thought it better here. You have some insight? This will be part of a citation, given at a family reunion!

This is for a class and I'm struggling a bit with the double genitive's.
The sentence is "My son's opinions are often foolish."
So far I have, "Sententiae filii mei sunt saepe stultae" (I'm not worried about the order of the words). I was wondering if this was correct and, if not, what is it that I am not seeing grammatically. Thanks!
