need help please
Hey George, just wondering if there was a word in Latin that has two meanings, the word I'm looking for is something like "good/bad", but in one word, if that makes sense.
That, and also "There are three feelings that can't be expressed through words. Love, hate, and performing."
It's a challenge for you Very Happy

Thank you

For the second part of your question, I would translate it:
Passiones sunt tres quae per verba reddare non potest:
amor, odium, et exsecutio.


For the first, I have no clue.

bless - Your translation is actually the adjective for blessed.
You want the imperative of the verb to bless benedice

the child - parvulus is acceptable, but it is nominative.
You want the accusative parvulum.

who - quisnam is interrogative.
You want the relative pronoun qui.

is destined - est fatum means "is destiny"
You want destinatus est.

for greatness - maiestas is nominative.
You want the ablative after pro. pro maiestate

Benedice parvulum qui pro maiestate desinatus est.

Slogan
You all are outstanding.

I am making a T-Shirt and we want to use the slogan

"I am my Brother's keeper"

is this correct or is there a better translation?

Ego sum meus frater custodis

(used a web based translator)

Thanks for the help.

A pox upon web-based tranlators!
Sorry, just venting...

Num custos fratris mei sum?
is how the Latin Vulgate says "am I my brother's keeper?"

We can turn the question into a statement by removing the num.

Custos fratris mei sum.

When you say "let me be silent", do you mean
"Allow me to be silent"
or
"I should be silent"?
