hi, i wish to translate two phrases into latin, both very similar.
1. Lord (or God), protect A, B, C, D and E. (the letters being names)
2. Lord, have mercy and protect A. B, C, D and E.
otherwise, if anyone could think of a small protection prayer or latin phrase, on which i might include the 5 names, feel free to include it.
Thank you for reading, and for your time.
@deadbird,
1. Lord (or God), protect A, B, C, D and E. (the letters being names)
Domine, protege A et B et C et D et E
2. Lord, have mercy and protect A. B, C, D and E.
Miserere Domine, atque protege A et B et C et D et E

vivere et mori hodie
Since you guys seem to have the expert of english/latin translations on here.....
How would you translate: the old ones
or something similar to it like: those who came first
Thanks!!
@George,
That was quick, thanks a lot!
So if I wanted to say 'the pact (or covenant) of the old ones' it would be pactum senes or senes pactum? Or would that be all wrong?
@Lisette88,
pactum senum
Senum is the genetive (i.e. possesive) case of
senes
@George,
Great, thanks again, I really appreciate the help
@George,
Hi George,
Found you through searching on Google!
Would you be able to translate "Only you are my heart's desire"
Thank you SO much in advance!
@Lillith-Rose,
Te sole appetentia cordis mei es
You can omit the last word,
es ("are").
@George,
Thank you!
It is for a ring engraving, and I've just been told I can only have around 20 characters
...do you know of any way it could be done to that requirement, whilst still saying pretty much the same sentence?
@Lillith-Rose,
This will get it down to twenty (including spaces)
tu cupido cordis mei
I've dropped
es ("you are"') and
sole ("only") and used a different, shorter
word for desire.
Since this is for an engraving, please have someone else review it.
I'm not a professional Latin scholar. It's just a hobby.
Be sure to mention the word limit up front.
The folks at these two sites are helpful.

@George,
Brilliant, that is great, I will do ^_^
So what does the above translate in English?
@Lillith-Rose,
Here is the literal translation:
tu cupido cordis mei
tu --> you
cupido --> desire
mei --> [of] my
cordis --> heart
@George,
Would "my heart's only desire" be able to be translated into 20 ish characters at all? (Sorry for being so fussy!)
@Lillith-Rose,
cupido una cordis mei
comes in at 21 characters, including spaces
@George,
Would you like to help me George to translate this to Latin, please?
The dark times are coming,
Prepare for long journey,
Go fallow sounds of the melody,
Which will lead you to the other side
